Benzema

The twenty year old striker, who plays for Lyon. I seriously can't believe this guy hasn't been snapped up by Manure, Liverpool, Chelsea or Arsenal. He is superb, his touch, his strength and his fantastic awareness where the goal is is phenomenal. How much do you this he is worth?

By the way, he scored the winner against St Etienne tonight.

Think the stumbling block was the £70m asking price plus his unwillingness to leave this summer.

He is top notch though, got a quality goal against united in the CL last year, will be one of the best in Europe soon if he isnt already.

Baros was excellent at Euro 2004. What's your point?

Good point Zesh, but it surprises me at the lack of scouting talent that all the big clubs go mad over players if they have a good Euros/WC (Poborsky, Baros, Arshavin).

Surely if these scouts are worth their salt they would've already spotted these players at their clubs? We already knew about Arshavin from the England games.

And I have only seen Benzema a few times for Lyon, but his quality was clear. Remember how bad Henry looked for France sometimes, compared to his former Arsenal glory.

Maybe we should have swooped for him in 2008. Our rise to the top would have been quicker
