  • Those figures are a bit misleading though aren't they? Both Kane and Lukaku play almost every minute of every game in a season, whereas Benteke has barely started a game since moving to Liverpool.

    Benteke has an almost Arsenal-like injury recurrence, he's incredibly one-dimensional (unlike Lukaku, who actually contributes when not scoring) and bar one half decent season at Villa, it's hard to point at why he might be worth that.
    The only real reason is demand is higher than supply for goal scorers. Doesn't mean it represents value though.
