    Chelsea are absolute poison throughout the team, what in the world is going on there.

    Its certainly a baffling fall from grace. Doesn't seem to be something Mourinho has a clue to figuring out. Shows the difference between him and Fergie I guess!

    to be fair though, if they had a TMO, there would be decisions given to Chelsea that haven't been this season, which leads to frustration.

    It would change everything for sure.

    Not really sure how you are coming to that conclusion, chelsea are muck.

    look at all the other options, many of which are firing, for the price he is, he would want to be scoring a lot more in FF before he becomes a serious option imo

    Do you think he's worth taking a hit to bring in for KDB?

    Without a doubt.

    I'm already consider TC for him.

    True but He's scored two weeks in a row off the bench. A fully fit benteke in a klopp Liverpool side has the potential to be a great option

    His returns have been fairly decent when he has been fit. 4 goals and 1 assist in 8 games isn't bad, and in 3 of those 8 games, he played 45 mins or less. Throw in a new manager and a system that suits him, and imo he is a serious option taking all that into account.

    Going to be hard to fit Tekkers in now alongside Vardy, Pelle, Lukaku & Kane! So many mid priced options right now its ridiculous. Nice to have a season without such a clear template as the last few years.

    If fit, Benteke is a much better option than Lukaku imo. Kane is another story, perhaps, though I think his recent hat-trick glosses over his earlier awful performances.

    Now yes. But maybe in a month or two, if/when Klopp manages to make Liverpool "Borussia 2.0" Benteke will become essential ;).

    Sure tis only the now which matters. Its amazing how far they have progressed already if they carry on like this it won't be a case of just Benteke being essential we'll probably all have three Pool! Who wants to live in a world where everyone has three Liverpool players urgh.

    Moreno has been absolutely superb. He's been flying throughout the game. He's be a great shout for man of the match.
    Moreno. Coutinho & one of Benteke/Sturridge if/when 100% fit :p?

    After all, weren't most of us on the SAS and even some on the SASAS option when Liverpool should have been champion 2 years ago?

    Should have been Champions :pac::pac:

    I think I never went with more than just Suarez. Might have had Coutinho a bit as well. In a few years new players will think that Suarez season will have just been a myth!

    Yea but in comparison with other players

    Vardy - cheaper option - 10 goals 1 assist
    Pelle - Similarly priced - 5 goals 5 assists
    Giroud - has 5 goals and has limited playing time

    the above players are all in free scoring teams that have been scoring for fun this season - Liverpool on the other hand are average 1 goal a game. IMO he needs to show more before he's a series option, it would be like saying if Kane scores a brace on Monday that he's a serious contender again - based on his great season last year?

    Vardy hits the post I think. Looks like an open game from what I hear.

    As a complete neutral though, I'd have "liked" him to finish on a such long awaited PL title.

    5-4-1 here for Norwich who have no interest in getting out of their own half. Matter of time before City score. De Bruyne playing wide though.
