I spoke to someone that is very much ITK. He very rarely gets things wrong.....

I'm not over the moon, but I'm happy that we'll have a striker that actually scores goals <laugh>

It will do his Belgium career the world of good now that he'll be playing in the best football team in the universe. With the best players in the Universe.

Would be an awful choice - arguably the worst choice ever. If people thought signing Mario made no sense, then signing Benteke will take the biscuit.

We're Liverpool FC, we should be going for much better. <ok>

No signing ever will be worse than the Mario one! I don't want either but I'd rather pay £50m for Benteke than take Balotelli on a free he's THAT bad!

So you think Mario is better than Benteke?

They're both not suited to us. But one player has more to his game than the other...

But my issue is (well, one of my many issues) if Rodgers could not get the best out of players like Lambert and Mario, then how will he do it for Benteke? ...

As poor as Lambert and Mario were last season, they both endured arguably their worst seasons in their career. In fact, the same could be applied to a few of our players last season - which indicates the underlying issue is not with the player, but moreso with the manager.

Don't know about this one. Can be a great player who can destroy a defence, but does he fit our style. May be he will be the plan B when the fancy stuff does not open up the opposition, we can resort to the battering ram. He will need to up his effort though if he expects to get games, he does tend to stroll around at times like Balotelli.

He can adapt his game, I absolutely believe that 100%.

It is absolute nonsense that he's simply a target man.

Benteke will not be the last forward we buy this window

Is he ****. Mario is a disgrace to football and should never have been considered. Least Benteke is a decent footballer, he just doesn't suit us.

Bit harsh lol. He's at the receiving end of media and fan criticism. For eg he cut short his bereavement leave to come back to the club and train - don't think any of the media outlets, blogs etc even mentioned it.

He's better footballer than Benteke btw. <ok>

Trust me - Benteke does not work hard at all. He's incredibly static and does not press. Pump a long ball and you'll see him move, but don';t expect anything when the ball is on the deck. <ok>

Now let's move on from Benteke before I burst a blood vessel!

He may or may not work at all, that is open to opinion and you are entitled to claim he doesn't. However, that is not why you're getting the facepalm. You already know why you're getting said smiley but just in case, here is a clue...
