[Foot Long Hot Dog]

Rondon? Christ on a bike.

We're being linked with Rondon as well according to @Eggs

I'd rather have him to be honest

...don't ever remember mentioning Rondon but I have been drinking plenty of dark rum. He wasn't in my rumour report this morning.

Bloody hell lads !
Is it not bad enough that I have to consider the possibility of Benteke starting for us without you lot hijacking his thread to talk about the useless lump that Rondon is ? lol lol

Vegetarian mate, stupid jokes are not beneath me but eating animals is.

Not bothered reading the whole thread but can't understand the negativity towards Benteke. Had a look at him, Lukaku and Giroud's scoring record in the Premier League (only) and it is fairly similar:

Lukaku (age 24): 85 in 186 (45.7%)
Benteke (age 26): 66 in 154 (42.9%)
Giroud (age 30): 69 in 164 (42.1%)

So obviously Lukaku has the best record there but has played for an Everton side that came 5th. Giroud is 4 years older than Benteke and has a slightly lower percentage despite playing for a far superior Arsenal side. Benteke has still scored goals despite playing for the likes of Villa and Palace.

I'd be delighted with him or Giroud to be honest, but my preference would be Benteke.

I think that's kind of bonkers; Kevin Sheedy, Peter Beardsley, Gary Ablett, Don Hutchinson, all played for the Dark Side first and were good players for us. Not to mention all the former Everton players who were Liverpool fans as kids.

Just look at how Benteke scored his two goals at Anfield last season (skip ahead to about 7 minutes for the good stuff) Just picture him doing that in an Everton shirt

Sign him now.
