Seems like Benteke is on the way in. While he was not my first choice, I think he'll be a vast improvement over what we currently have and will be better than everyone predicts as just a mild upgraded Andy Carroll. Yes, he is big and heads a lot of goals but he also links up well and shoots from distance. Most importantly, he scores goals which is all we really can wish for in a striker.

I have to say, our team for once actually has so much depth, our starting XI doesn't seem obvious and our bench isn't a joke. If Danny ever got fit, I could see him playing just off of Benteke, much like he did with Suarez. Then we have the Brazilian duo, Hendo and Milner in midfield, Clyne, Sakho, Skrtel and Moreno or even Gomez in the back with Migs in net. But, that still doesn't leave room for Can, Lallana, Ings, Ibe, Origi and even Lucas or Allen if need be. Plus some of the young kids waiting in the wings as well. Not too bad.

I'm very curious to see what everyone else does. Man Utd and Arsenal need striker depth I think, Chelsea and City are always hungry for a big splash, though I guess Sterling counts, doesn't it? Spurs have been relatively quiet too, which I expect to change and I am interested to see who else steps up with some big moves.

Football is only weeks away! European, that is.

Take care all.
