To think we're paying him 110k a week

Why didn't we just pay 26 million for Benteke

Who would pay £1m for such a donkey?

Wouldn't y'all now have taken Berba for the rest of the season...

No Ade (not shedding any tears) means plenty of game time for Soldado.

This is a VERY VERY good thing IMO.

We spent plenty on him so he needs to keep getting the game time.

Our season is not gonna amount to anything so we might as well get the new players as much game time as possible till the end of the season...

Now just to get Lamela a few PL games in a row...

And Benteke has been brilliant this season

He's not an awful footballer though is he?

You don't score 20+ goals a season in Spain if you're awful do you?

He hasn't adjusted to the league, and may never will, but he certainly isn't awful.

So much moaning today

La Liga is rubbish Grant Holt would get 20 goals in La Liga

posted on 1/2/14

He has been the worst striker in the league 1 measly goal from open play. Id fancy any other striker in the league to have done better than that playing for us. He hardly ever hits the target with his shots either. Now with defoe off and ade looking like he injured we have to play him or kane. Total disaster.

Carlton Cole is more productive

posted on 1/2/14

I dont care how many goals he scored in spain over here he is useless.

posted on 1/2/14

Yes carlton cole is more productive thats my point, spurs fans need to stop making excusesfor him, he has not been anywhere near good enough so bad in fact that we should get rid in the summer. If spurs could get 12m back id jump at it.

Absolutely woeful today. I want to believe he'll get better before long but on today's performance he's getting worse.

It's become embarrassing after what we spent on him.

do you have any confidence we would reinvest that 12m sensibly? i don't.

just put it to the stadium.

Soldado is a good footballer that is low on confidence and taking time to fully adjust to the PL, he needs a goal and his confidence will come back.

His general play and link up play has been decent, he has a few assists to his name, so to write him off is a massive over reaction.

He is so desperate to score he is snatching at his chances and lashing at the ball rather than finishing with a cool head.

I have not written him off just yet.

Who saw when his shot was deflected into the air, and he just stood there and watched the hull defender clear it...he didn't even make an effort to challenge the ball

---------------------

Shouldn't his penalty goals have given him confidence though? In fact the way he's despatched them suggests confidence isn't what he's lacking.

Well for 28m the least i would expect is for him to be a decent footballer, however as a striker his job is to score goals and he is not doing that or looking like doing it.

He might be low on confidence but my confidence in him is even lower.

posted on 1/2/14

Wouldnt be the first striker to go through a dry spell.

posted on 1/2/14

He looks like a real confidence player..same with Lamela. Trouble is the longer it goes on the worse he'll get
