And Benteke missed most of a year injured.
In fact the only none injury prone strikers there are Suarez and Rooney.
TBF Suarez was banned half his career and Rooney spent a long time sulking in America until he got a pay rise

One name. Soldado.Benteke is a proven prem. striker............Lacazette isn't. No doubt there is a step up from Ligue 1 to the PL.
That's the thing with buying in from abroad......can they do it in the prem?
We know Benteke can.............and that is significant

To be honest my opinion is that Benteke will only do well at Liverpool if Rodgers leaves.
At Villa, a team that was at its best on the counter attack, the ball was constantly hoofed towards him exploting his ability to hold the ball up and bring the quick wide players into play.
I can't see us playing in a way that brings the best out of Benteke under Rodgers, not least because if we did it would most likely make Coutinho look as useless as he did when Lambert was the lone striker
How Empire of Kop now see's us shaping up:

Benteke and Firmino added to our attack which takes a bit of pressure off Sturridge. I'm personally excited.
and Markovic.Good. Don't forget lallana there as well... bound to be better this year.

Same here, you'd think we've just signed a terrible player.
Rodgers must think he can use this guy well - it's been our top target since before the season ended.
Just back him! Half the time that's what it takes for a striker to get firing. if it goes tits up most of u get your wish and Brod gets sacked

Well, we start have Lovren's hiding to put up with.For me there should be enough here to not accept weak performance in any game. As I said if Lucas and can compete for DM can has the legs. We should at the bare minimum have twice as much running in us.
Do we have the heart.
6-1 v stoke suggests not and that must never happen again. I'd rather we get 2 sent off fighting that that.
I want at least big effort and work this year and look like a team again.
Once balotelli goes to add to johnsons disinterest, sterling's deliberate running away from goal and Gerrard little sulks all the bad will be gone and we start with players out to try and do something not see out time.
I agree with that- unacceptable, that scoreline. Happily, it was the one game I missed all season.For me there should be enough here to not accept weak performance in any game.
