Looking at how poor Benteke has been for Liverpool this season, I can't help but wonder something: in the summer of 2013 we had Baldini telling Levy that Benteke was the man to spearhead our attack and we should pay Villa the £25m asking price, on the other hand AVB said that Soldado was the man to lead the front line and we should pay whatever it took to sign him - and in the end AVB won...although that is a loose definition of the word "won" considering what happened.

Judging by how Benteke coasts around the pitch in Liverpool's matches, I can't help but think that AVB may have been right. Say what you will about Soldado's miserable scoring record, as plenty of people have, but at least he always put in the effort on the pitch no matter what.

2nd tier in the US at only 31? That makes me a bit sad, to be honest.
 
Guess he just wants to live in New York.

We all have our own priorities in life, and I guess footballers are no different.
 
Most slip ups, by their very nature, come against the sides that one expects to beat.

Adebayor's got to have one decent game for Palace, if only to justify his wages. Let's hope that this is the game.
