Benzema

the guy is simply amazing..one of my fav players...i have feeling though with MAN U having striker problems...i mean all they have is rooney and tevez saha who is always injured..if he shows his class in the match up against MAN U in the CL ...fergie will want him in the team...hes already said to be intersted...and they have more than ebough money to sign him i hope he signs with us though if lyon were to sell him..with pippo to retire and ronaldo injury prone..all we have left is pato and gila...if we can add benzema and put another youth product on the bend (ploshci) it would really be something..

If Gila does not prove himself in a Milan shirt, I see no point in keeping him. It's been 3 long years and he still doesnt seem anywhere close to his Parma self. Having Pato, Ronaldo, Benzema, Pippo would be scintillating. Pippo and R99 providing the experience and the injuries , while Pato and Benzema rip up opposition defences with their speed and power.

Ronaldo and pippo should be considered as 1 striker because they are not available half the time.

Remember and what Galiani said. "We have Aubameyang!"

more reason to look for him.he scored last night against MU.and during all the game he was superb.he was everywhere and always ready to scores (look the way when he scored against MU.. 5 MU players around him but he could managed to scored..SUPERB).since we had injury Ronnie here a forward should be needs.and Benzema is versatile.good choice IMO.

CONTAIN BENZEMA GOAL AGAINST MU

This old mad man that is Aulas said that after such a performance (his goal against MU), now, to take Benzema, clubs would have to spend 100M € ...

At the start of the season, it was 35-40M €, which was already high, but 100M € ... it's a bit ... umh let's buy Eto'o for 60M € lol !!

The guy is a fantastic striker, for sure, but Lyon certainly will demand an obscene amount of money for him, hell, I guess even Chelsea will not afford that.

I'd just like to point out that this man, Aulas, would sell umbrellas in the middle of Sahara. He sold a few players for ridiculous amount of price in the past.
Out of them all, only Essien proved to be a good one, but not worthy the amount of moneys Chelsea payed. Tiago is a failure at Juve. Malouda and Abidal surely not worthy the amazing amount of moneys paid for them.

I think it's quite dangerous to buy Lyon's players, who many times proved to benefit a team organisation, but put off their context their didn't perform as well.

I heard that Aulas intend Benzema to sign a new contract (expiring in 2013) with a buy-out clause for 100 millions Euro...

Benzema seems to be a real talent ... even with French team, it seems like he will become the main player in few months (perhaps directly at the Euro) ...

which will make his price go even higher in summer..

Though his characters worry me a bit. However, he is beam with confident. I've ever only seen that of Shevchenko, the days he was with Dynamo Kiev, battling in CL.
