@dikketuur_nl
Mertens is an amazing player with great technique, quick turns, and precise shooting!!Belgrade has been an unconquerable fort so far, and I hope it will remain in the future too!

Also a great battle. In my opinion those two belong to the best central defenders in the world.
Especially Koulibaly is a bit underrated I think, and as many other talents he's a
KRC Genk-product Without doubt the best youth academy in Belgium.Just look at the players they have delivered throughout the years:
Kevin de Bruyne, Thibaut Courtois, Kalidou Koulibaly, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Leon Bailey, Christian Benteke, Timothy Castagne, Steven Defour, Yannick Carrasco, Sébastien Pocognoli, ... -
@dikketuur_nl and your proud of Benteke

Benteke is a great striker. Just got fucked because of some injuries.
Take a look at the stats:Genk: 37 games, 19 goals, in which he contributed a lot to the title
Aston Villa: 89 games, 42 goals, which is pretty damn good considering Villa sucks
Liverpool: 29 games, 9 goals, not that bad imo
Crystal Palace: 67 games, 18 goals, that ain't great, but can you blame him, I mean Crystal Palace is bad manPlus 12 goals in 34 games for Belgium, in which he helped us to qualify for the WC in Brasil
-
He's definitely a good striker, unfortunately didn't reach the potential I expected from him
-
He chose money and that's what messed him , going to Liverpool to try and bench Sturrigde remember I prefer players who love the game and not the fame ie Wilfred Zaha is also in Palace and he isn't having a bad season so yea he Benteke sucks
-
Hell no. Benteke is useless. Same as Origi.

So making a big transfer after 3 great seasons at a smaller club means 'not loving the game'. That makes sense. #not

Both great strikers imo, just might have made a big move too soon and wasted their potential.
-
@dikketuur_nl Origi is ok I guess, just cause his part Kenyan like me

So
thing is it didn't work out for Zaha too so he went back to a club of his caliber he is a legend in his own way

Benteke did too.
Went from Aston Villa to Liverpool, and in my opinion he didn't even perform bad with Liverpool. But seeing his chances of playing going down he chose to go to Crystal Palace, a club of his caliber for sure. Unfortunately some injuries on the way made him what he is now. -
Too much was paid for Benteke.
-
That might be true, but doesn't make him a bad player
-
But not good enough for big clubs.
-
True. Allthough I think if he got more chances at Liverpool (or maybe a slightly smaller club) he would have made it further. 9 goals in 29 matches is not that bad

@manager-pr-9 Wait ... what club are you for?
