Christian Benteke

Ba is similar to Benteke, if we're spending money, buy a world class first choice striker if not then Lukaku, Ba and Torres is enough, no point in buying to replace your 2nd and 3rd choice strikers.

I think we should make a move for Benteke, only if spurs was on a verge to sign him. Just to make them pissed off.

Can't see it at all. Lukaku has had a similar season to him and I don't believe there is much between the two and buying Benteke would be like a kick in the teeth to Lukaku. I think if we do sign a striker it will be someone who has had a bigger rep over Europe and not just one season.

Don't particularly like him, so nah...

[Severinb 309]

What a wanker villa gave him such a big chance leaving bent out of the team for him and this is how he thanks them. He could have stayed at leaat one more season wth them no loyalty left in the game..

What a non-story this is... Chelsea need a striker, I know lets link them to every single one which becomes available. No chance this is happening, doesn't actually make any sense.

Benteke has handed in a transfer request. I have to say, if he goes to spurs, they will be real contenders for the first 3 place in my opinion.

Well. Hell. Let's sign him just to stop that then. A world where the damned spurs play Champions League football isn't a world I want to be a part of.........

[Special Juan 28,133]

Not surprised at this one bit, he's a very good player playing at a crap side, but I am still not convinced he is 20m plus striker even after a good season.

[bushman 2,043]

Well, perhaps my wish will come true. Go for Benteke. He is young & talented & could be another player for Chelsea.

No that still won't be enough to overcome us, MU and City. They need a Higuain type striker to stand a chance.

Definitely this will alert everyone. I don't know a top 6 team that wouldn't be interested tbh. I don't reckon we will be though, maybe Tottenham and Arsenal would probably show the most interest

How would people feel if Chelsea chucked In demba ba plus £10-12 mill for benteke just a thought?

Christian #Benteke is keen on a move to #THFC, not to #CFC.

Fine by me.

Yes, maybe! Their bench is their weak point, but if we just look at to their first XI with Benteke, with their amazingly fast wingers, and with the Sandro, Paulinho, Dembele midfield... I think they can be real danger. The next campaign will be the most interesting season what I ever seen, I guess.
