Replace Courtois with Akpeyi, then let's see where the paltry 21 goals in 36 matches, that Benzema managed to score would have carried Madrid to. Even yesterday, if not for Courtois' saves, the trophy wouldn't have been presented.

If i start posting Madrid's fans complaints on Benzema during the season, you will disappear with your nonsense stats.

The same Courtois everybody was yabbing on this forum not too long ago?

While you're posting complaints about Benzema I will also post the ones for Courtois. Let's go there?

As if it's not defenders standing in front of this same Courtois.

Take away Benzema's two goals let's see if Madrid would have not lost that match. Are you normal like this?

How many Madrid attackers played 36 league matches like the bag of beans?

Lewandowski played 31 matches and scored 34 goals

Benzema played 36 matches and scored 21 goals

Vardy played 33 matches and scored 23 goals

This is what happens when you refuse to swallow your L and retreat to fight another day.

You're gradually making my point that Benzema held the attack by himself with no help. Other players were either injured or not even fit for purpose to make any impact.

One man MOPOL Benzema led Madrid to their 34th title. While his teammates were dropping poverty numbers. Abi you think Madrid wins the league if they relied on Hidden and his 1 goal in 1100 mins?

airmark:


So na to build goals for Benzema remain now.

Benzema went 10 games with just a goal. If Madrid had lost those 9 matches, do you think Madrid would have won the league? Bag of beans wasn't the most important Madrid player, we watched the matches, unlike you dolt.

It's not my fault that you don't understand elementary English.

If Madrid had lost 9 matches in 10? Really? The other players don't get paid to contribute? Well only an akpa nsi like you can come up with such a foolish example! No surprises

Just show me any Madrid player who combined for more than 10 goals in the league in the entire Madrid squad and I will agree with your nonsense.

Show me 1 Madrid player in this list.

How many players in Madrid had a combined goal and assist of over 10 in the league this season. Benzema has 29 g+a

Don't mind commandclem analysts that won't give credit where it's due

Imagine the no of goals scored, and he's not the 1st choice for PK.

Had it bn hazard scored 10 goals this season, we won't hear word on Nairaland .......even with the 1 goal and 3 assists.... Hensben wan kill us with noise

The word shame is not in their dictionary. To show that Benzema scored crucial goals and not stat padding goals, OPTA showed us that no player in the entire La Liga contributed more points singlehandedly than Benzema

airmark:
Na Bariga Times Newspaper publish this for the Algerian bag of beans? You work with false data, that's why you were arguing and praising the bag of beans, disgracing yourself up and down.

Benzema never scored 26 league goals in a season in over 16yrs of his professional career. Stop lying, opuro oloju wonkan.

Are you senile? Contributions meaning goals + assists. Where did I say Benzema scored 29 goals?

You're too young to be this demented

Benzema was so bad during the season that he had just 1 goal in 10 matches in a row. If others didn't step up to the plate, Madrid would be thinking of Europa next season.

If you have short memory, others don't. Courtois and Ramos were more crucial than the Algerian bag of beans that disappeared from scorers' sheet, like a fart of a leprous witch, between December 2019 and February 2020.

I know you're like man made god. You have eyes but you cannot see

Ask someone to count how many Madrid players are on this list below

Expert17:
Benzema is the main man this season for Real Madrid....

Even Perez confirmed this yesterday....make una calm down with useless agenda.

Some people are brainless. A player that contributed 29 goals out of a total 68.

Nobody scored more than 10 goals in the entire Madrid squad. Can you imagine

Werey alaso say him no get time for back and forth. Who dey try interact with am before?

Awada kerikeri

You've always had comprehension issues so I'm not surprised. Anybody with a working brain would know the Ings reference wasn't meant as a direct comparison but then again, you are a special kind of stupid. Would you be happy if I brought up someone like Lewy, who has 34 goals in 31 matches and just about double the number of goals Benzema has scored in all competitions this season? Mumu.

You're a fucktardious cretin. Who said you were comparing or not comparing? I'm saying mentioning Ings and Benzema together on any grounds is ret@rded. Benzema's performance led Madrid to a league title. Da fuq does anything have to do with Danny Ings? Onye nzuzu.

What if you brought up Lewy? Are Lewy and Danny Ings in the same league. Mr man what is the nature of your problem?

pkasso:
Real didn't need any of Benzema's goals to pick up 4 pts against their fiercest rivals Barca. Something that would prove valuable in the long run. When Benz went through his annual goal drought earlier this year with a startling 2 goals in 12 games, who were the ones keeping the team afloat? Own goals from the opposition I guess. In their first game after the restart against Eibar, Kroos, Ramos and Marcelo were the ones getting the goals in what was a terrible performance from their no 9. Casemiro scored winners against Atletico and Sevilla, two of the top 4 sides in La Liga. Eder Militao is the only senior outfield player yet to get on the scoresheet this season but na Benz dey contribute all the goals.

This clown is clearly sniffing butcheeks. 18 teams in the league and this odious toad is focused on Barca. How many times do Madrid and Barca play?

12 games out of 37 amounts to what? Can you name any player aside Lewandowski that did not suffer from goal drought or drop in form.
Benzema is second only to Messi contributing 29 goals out of the 68 Madrid scored

Add up Kroos, Casemiro, Ramos and Marcelo's goals it's still not up to Benzema's

pkasso:
Ogbeni, there is a popular saying in sports " Offense win games, defense wins championships" That is not more obvious anywhere than in Madrid's title win. To put things in perspective, Simeone's ultra-defensive champions of 2013/14 scored 77 goals and conceded 26 goals earning 20 clean sheets. Real this season with a game to go have only scored 68 goals, conceded a measly 23 and have kept 19 clean sheets. They play Leganes on the last day. Costa scored 27 goals that year but everyone agreed it was the defense that won them the league. But it's Benz that led a Real side with a better defensive record to the title.

So Oga, just go find somewhere siddon. I don't have time for back and forths with an intellectual minion like yourself, so Adios!

You use foolish analogies that are above your pay grade. Who agreed with you that it was Atletico's defense that won them the league? So why did Chelsea come for Diego Costa? Would Atletico win the league if Costa didn't 'chip in' with his 27 goals. Asinwin

Even if Madrid conceded 0 goals how do they get wins without Benzema's 29 goal contributions?

Someone just showed you proof that Benzema won more points for his team than any other player in the league and still you're frothing in the mouth like a camel in heat.

Oya show 1 player that contributed more than Benzema and this intellectual eunuch is referring to the defense, an actual collective of 5 different players. You couldn't hide your foolishness if you tried.

And Incase you haven't noticed, nobody has time for any back and forth with a needy attention starved Muppet like you either. A fact some other fans here have correctly observed

Lingardinho. Omo this one loud oh

King Benzema

This is the player they are trying to diminish his impact in Madrid side. Benzema ran Madrids attack almost single handedly

www.nairaland.com/attachments/11946259_kingbenz_jpeg43a615e12aef4fed3e55c09f5e15232b

How can one look at the stats up there and still argue that Benzema did not run Madrids attack

Awon alainitiju eni. They will kuku unlook.

Benzema was directly responsible for 29 goals out of the 68 Madrid scored in total but we keep hearing how defenders and midfielders 'chipped' in with goals. Chipolopolo ni

BlueAngel444:
I wonder what that guy that has popcorn for brain cells would say of Ziyech when he starts averaging 4 shots per game in Chelsea with maybe one goal or none

You can't blame them. When you have ile keu foundation you will struggle to grasp simplest of concepts. How can you use shots per game in isolation as proof a player is clinical or has good conversion rate or not. Mumu conflating shots with actual scoring chances

I won't be suprised if the commandclem analyst was one of the Bitcoin victims earlier in the week.

popizaino:
.


This is so wrong on the emboldened. I won't say much

Go and argue with OPTA. I am not sure you know what you're talking about.

Going purely by shots is a silly way to rate a player's conversion rate or clinical ability.

Mo Salah for example has scored 19 goals but look at the number of shots. So going by this logic Salah is the most wasteful big name striker in Europe since he converts at 1 in 7 chances.

That's not how it works. Smart analysts drill down and read the fine print. That's why they also recorded shots on target, big chances missed etc which anyone can then scrutinize and see the true picture

This is stupid. So you won't consider missed chances that were off the target, when calculating the efficiency in front of goal, of an attacker?

You are even comparing a Central forward to wingers in this convo? Dayo should lock you up.

All shots are not created equal. If they were guys like OPTA would not break things down further and have separate categories for actual chances missed.

Your brain's OS is still on Windows 95 when everyone else is using Windows 10. No wonder you're still using Appearances instead of minutes played like every other up to date analyst. Onye nzuzu!

You're still foolishly asking me why I'm comparing CF to a winger? Why does that matter? Who takes more shots at Liverpool between Salah and Firmino. You are so dense walahi

afrodoc2:
The attempts of Hazardistas to defend 1 goal and 3 assists is comical.

Very wicked fat boy. See as he phucked all his fans here up. Nkwobi addict.

Let him go to Madrid, let him join an attacking team they said. Mumus didn't know Hazard was a big fish in small pond player. The hype job was exposed in Spain this year the league of so-called farmer defenders

raumdeuter:
Imagine the incredible suffering and stomach pain he is going through right now, He spent years bashing Benzema while the big Benz was staring under different coaches. Like I said, he has a pull towards failure so much that its difficult to explain. We are talking about someone winning the La Liga with Madrid as top striker and main scorer, he is talking about a Relapsti in struggling Torino. If he is that good, he wont be in Torino at age

Benzema led Madrid to the La Liga and we are seeing needless shalayes. Let them tell us the last time a Madrid player not named Ronaldo scored 20 league goals in a season

We told them Benzema had to sacrifice his own scoring to benefit Ronaldo who was a better scorer but football neophytes who don't know anything started saying rubbish
Let them go and see how Higuain is delivering since Ronaldo got to Juventus. Who was the last striker to play alongside Ronaldo and score 20 goals? But you know some people, the only reason they sign-in is to stan ramdeuters post and counter anything he says even when they sound ridiculous

They said Benzema will not lead Madrid and he brought untold shame to them so much that their belly is starting to ache after Benzema delivered the title to Madrid

5 different top coaches have managed Madrid and they all started Benzema, This is Madrid where many great strikers have gone and failed . Someone is now mentioning fvcking Danny Ings. The same guy who has been getting bounced from relegation teams all over the league, The Kevin Phillips of this season, Maybe there is a reason no top 6 side in any league is interested in Danny Ings but Benzema is spending a decade as a starter in Madrid

List of Madrid scorers in the league

Benzema 21
Ramos 10
Kroos 4
Casemiro 4
Varane 3

You dont need an optician to know who delivered offensively for Madrid to win the title. Basically no one in Madrid has half the goals of Benzema

Yet bad belle people failed football analysts said he has done nothing special. Really nothing special that Madrid without Ronaldo beat Barcelona with Messi to the La liga title with a game to spare

Like they say Haters gonna hate

It's always easy to know the ones that watch TV with their eyes closed and mouth wide open.

When a clown is mentioning Danny Ings and Benzema in the same breath you just have to unlook and understand his desperation to be liked and approved by apoche cra cra and cronies.

Even went further to talk about midfielders and defenders chipping in goals. Lmaoooo! 6 out of the 10 goals Ramos scored were from the penalty spot. So who and who were chipping in with goals? Hazard?

Benzema carried Madrid leading the attack on goals and assists when it became clear that Jovic and Hazard were going to be monumental flops. These Ekwe samples (apologies Elamps Baba) won't see this though

airmark:
How will you determine the conversion rate, by not including shots off target? Are you insane?

Messi is not a central forward like Benzema, if you are not dull you would know why Messi should have more shots off target than Benzema.

Dayo should be punished for not educating you well before allowing you to move out of Bayern thread, and contributing here.

You are a thief!! No sensible human being will use total shots to determine a player's conversion rate and how clinical they are. Else guys like Cristiano Ronaldo would not be rated at all

That is asinine. If you want to prove a player is wasteful you bring out their big chances missed like OPTA did not this your asinine commandclem analysis

Messi has more shots on and off target than Benzema. Whether he's a goalkeeper what it still shows to any one with a working brain is that he gets into position to score as much as Benzema

Your useless Belloti for example if we take away his 7 penalty goals he would be left with 9 goals from 61 shots. That means he converts 1 out of 7 chances going by your foolish logic.

You can see that two can play your mumu game

airmark:
You can't stop exposing your limited knowledge of the round leather game. You always type a lot of inconsequential words that will further disgrace you.

Let me take you to school. You dwelled on only shots on goal, to reach your stupid conclusion that Benzema has a great conversion rate. What of his shots off target? Your brain didn't consider that as important, right? Can you see why you need to return fully to your mentor, Dayo, to train you more, before you can come and battle me on soccer technicalties?

When you should be here reading and learning from brilliant submissions, you will be on Basketball thread, sizing up Lola William's boobs.

Who is including shots off target with you? If we are doing that then Messi is even worse than Benzema going by your apoche cra cra logic.

Total shots:
Messi - 111
Goals
23

So if you must slander anybody. Start with Messi. Efulefu

Dumb and dumber

Amoto94:
Jorginho is at best a poor man's Pirlo, Michael Carrick was a better DLP than Jorginho during his playing days yet he was heavily criticized for his lack of athleticism.
EPL is a different animal compared to other leagues because the intensity is higher and your DLP must have legs and be physically robust else he will run into trouble, Xabi Alonso was DLP and excelled in that role while playing for Liverpool because of his athleticism coupled with his technical qualities, Fernandinho excelled too in this role because of the aforementioned qualities.

Lol Jorginho is nothing like Pirlo even at extreme poverty. What kind of blasphemy is this? Jorginho that can barely throw pass more than 5 yards? Stop this rough play

I don't want to say God, our creator, was partial by giving you good brain and denying raumdeuter, a40 and lordfalcao of same priviledge.

Courtois and Ramos were more influential in Madrid's triumph than Benzema that would get 5 chances and score 1. Put Kepa in goal and Rudiger at the back for Madrid, and see how Benzema's paltry 21 goals would have taken them to europa.

For some of us that watched most of Madrid's matches, we couldn't but laugh at the stupidity coming from Aparisports crew.

Rie nsi you shameless he-goat.

Benzema has scored 21 goals from 60 shots on goal. To put it in perspective Messi has 23 goals from 67 shots and Messi is Barca's primary PK taker. So where did you see 1 in 5 chances conversion rate. What an unlettered m0ron.

Ramos and Courtois are more important than the man that led Madrid in goals and assists? Better stick to MMM and commandclem analysis you stupid phucktard

Benzema contributed 21 goals and 8 assists. No other Madrid player scored half his goals or created as many assists. Clown

lordfalcao:
you should be ashamed.. after 2-3 years you are still waiting for a fully fit bellot..

Ask the Efulefu where Torino is on the table.

Ibime:
Tammy problem is not weight or lankiness. Tammy weighs 87kg while Drogba weighed only 84kg. There are many lanky players who know how to use their body. Tammy does not know how to use his body, balance his weight on his back foot when ball is coming in, press his nyash into the opponent, lean down on opponents shoulder, put his arm out to control the opponents body movement and balance etc.

As an Ijaw man, his father should take him home this summer to learn egelege which will teach him how to control his opponents centres of gravity and keep them off balance. One summer of egelege will turn him into a Drogba.

Aka Gidigbo

donjazet:
Ibime, enough with the jorginho slander.
It's difficult seeing you diss a player like an unseasoned pundit just because of your personal dislike for the player.

There are very few deep playing midfielders like Toni kroos or Xabi who are finely tuned both defensively and offensively.
Nobody here ever taught of jorginho as a box to box midfielder. Even when he was at Italy, he was known for his passing. He broke records for his passes. He is a player who is attuned to a particular system.

Jorginho's role in a team is as a regista of which there are very few like Sergio busquet, rodri, Pirlo etc.

When signing jorginho, we knew we would have to pair him with hard working box to box midfielders like kante and Barkley to complement his poor work rate.

Look at other regista's in football, Sergio busquet has been very vital to Barça in the last 10 years because he perfectly suits their pattern and philosophy, but if he was brought into a kloop team that is purely a high intensity and high energy football or even our team, watch how he would flop because the system doesn't match his attributes.
But if this same busquet went to mancity today, watch him easily slot in the way rodri has slotted in easily.

Don't forget that mancity were very close to signing him before we snatched the deal from them after signing sarri because we realized how important he was to "sarriball" which was the project the club had embarked upon at that time which we later broke away from.

Today, nobody in mancity expects rodri to be creative or defensive, his primary role is simply to recycle possession with lateral and diagonal passes, connecting the defense to the attack via passes and ensuring safe transitioning. This is simply his work.

Jorginho has simply become a victim of Chelsea's managerial instability. Sarriball was the only reason we signed him and now he is stuck with a manager that doesn't need his skill set since he subscribes to a different philosophy of football. This doesn't mean he is a rubbish player like you would like everyone to believe.

These were our immediate reactions here when he was signed.

Hehehehe
