Guys a few things to take in. Firstly regarding Benteke why should we be happy with 30 mil and spurs cast offs. If the quotes that are being put out for the likes of Cavani, Falcao are 50 mil I'm sorry but Benteke is also worth that as I believe he will be better next season, he has everything in his game, strength, power, pace, excellent in the air. Yes we bought him for 7 mil but we developed him into the player he is. We should keep him at all costs and make him honour his contract. I believe he will stay anyway. I don't like the fact that us villa fans on some sights are suggesting that he will be leaving anyway, we may well be posting comments regarding one of our new signings leaving next year as to say we can't hold on to them when they have signed a contract. Do we honestly think the money we get for Benteke will be shelled out for new players, I think not we have been here before. 20 mil downing 18 mil young 12 mil Barry 26 mil + Ireland for Milner. All that money bought was bent and Nzogbia. We would of bought players anyway with out selling. I for one would not sell bent if they don't pay the 8 mil. He kept us up in first year and it's a shame he does not fit our new system. But he will get the likes of Newcastle or Stoke 15 to 20 goals a season. If the likes of Kone is valued at 10 mil them Bents a bargain. Bring back Barry as well if we can he was a great servant to villa, knows the club inside out and would be a great help to our young midfielders. Good times ready to roll down villa park so let's enjoy it.
Cavani and Falcao have proved themselves in their leagues and in europe for a good few seasons. This is Benteke's first in the spotlight, so we can't value him like that just yet
