How You Like Me Now? - The Karim Benzema Thread

Yep just look at barcelona,Sureaz is banging in goals once again this season and then messi also . With us its ronaldo or nothing basically. Its not good enough to missing them chances every single match.

 

He turned out to be an amazing transfer. Great partnership with Ronaldo and we won 3 UCL's. Hopefully he's sold in the summer.

 

obviously hasnt picked up much tips from ronaldo. Seriously thats another big game tonight hes awfull misses could of haunted us .

971151261134475269 is not a valid tweet id

 

He could have scored two easily tonight. Or at least had an assist.

 

beside his 1v1 miss, the worse thing, that made me scream at my tv was that counter, ffs bro, you have 1 job, square it up to Ronaldo and its a goal, if you have more trust in shooting it your self, you have plenty of space to shoot with your left foot! instead, he does some weird turn around to try curling it with his right when there's a player right in front of him, ffs.

 

BAN the next person to defend Benzema mentioning his "link-up play". Fine, we get it. He's able to hold the ball and not pass it like a retard. That's not RM level. The guy needs to regain his confidence but at what cost? Playing him every game will hurt us bad. It's hard to find a 9 these days but Benzema needs to go. Atrocious season in all aspects, well except for his link up play which is excellent and deservers the Link Up Play Balon Dor 2018 Trophy

 

Yeah that counter was totally ********ed by Benzema. Very awkward with his movement and shoot. Was quite painful to watch tbh

 

if we can play a 1/8 game with Kros, Modric, Bale and Isco starting on the bench, why can't we bench this embarrassment of a player?
I don't see any logic in starting him in any game for the rest of the year.
His value is already plumped to probably less than $10m, there is really nothing he can do in the rest of the games that can change that.

 

I think Zidane, at his age, in his professional attire, with no warm-up would've scored at least one goal in Benzema's situation tonight. And the stepover nonsense is like, middle school era mistake.

 

Zidane would have scored both those goals. He was ice cool with his finishing. I was watching a Madrid training clip some days back and Zidane was just toying with the players. He still has amazing ball control.. Only if we could have him as a player in this team..

 

Sometimes Ronaldo has messed up his flicks too so I like to think I am fair to everyone, but when the only thing you do in a game is miss and then pull something that like... jeez it makes it 10x worse. Maybe I saw it wrong but didn’t the defender in Benz chuckle when the ball went out?

 

indeed, he was that good. Very elegant and effortless

 

Just wanted to make sure your around...
Have a nice weekend.

 

with the win yesterday and CR's amazing goal, people forget to mention how horrendous Benzema was yesterday. Literally playing with 10 men.

 

Oops forgot to shit on one of our players, too busy celebrating a brilliant win and a historic goal. Thank god you remembered.

 

I'll use any chance to shit on benzema. Been doing pretty much from his first day at Madrid.

 

Not sure you are doing this whole ‘supporter’ thing properly.

 

no harm in criticizing a player regardless of how well we are doing in the CL.

Benzema was shit and if it weren't for CR, our situation could be a lot worse now. And Benzema would be a main reason. He's in bad shape, what's the problem in saying that? He needs to be benched and be sold next season. He's had so many chances to prove critics wrong. But 1 goal every 5 games is simply not enough.

Brilliant win against Juve yes. Let's celebrate yes. But let's not forget... Benzema needs to step up.

 

You mean benzema need to step down.

 

I guess it's easy to shit on Benz the day we lose, I'm sure you will be among the first ones here to do that.

Just 'cause Ronaldo continues to save his ass does not neglect the fact that his performances this season are shameful.

When we are winning, everyone forgets but there is clearly a weak link in this team. We have Asensio, Bale and Lucas all riding the bench 'cause of this human turd.

 

This is the main reason why Benz continues to fly under the radar in recent years ..because we win.
I don’t know about others here but I rather have someone else who can take the scoring burden off of Cristiano. He is already 33 years old and his minutes need to be managed.
Can you imagine if he gets injured at the end of the season?
