Indeed, I never left that wagon. Just gave Benzema credit as it was/is due. Nothing hard to figure out...

If we are playing with Kaka and Ozil I would rather play Higuain

If we are only playing one set playmaker then Benzema would be the smarter choice

Only pronblem is it takes Benzema a few games to get going and he has a tendency to miss some absolute sitters

Higgy is our No. 20, name on the front more important than a number or the name on the back! I hope he takes his shot!

Hm... I foresee a potential problem in the future for the team which involves CR7 and Higuain but I need more games to confirm.

until then, i hope Higuain continues his good form but also help CR7 score.

oh yeah its probably too soon... but now seeing Higuain returning to prominence... I think its safe now to finally judge and criticize his performances. His recovery period shud be over, he is doing just fine now. At long last.
No more excuses pipita fanboys but i trust higuain to maintain his form.

as far as the who shud be the startingg cf, I'd still take benzema as far as cl matches concern regardless of higuain form. Higuain is not the same person when playing in cl. otherwise Higuain shud be the starter now, Benzema has been too lazy for my taste as of late and he cud use the kick in the rear.

it involves mostly cr7. i need more games to confirm, the idea came to me as i observed the espanyol match again at espn3. i dont see sport around, mind if i pm u about it? im the type that can see a problem before it even starts to breed.

I'm really glad for Higuain btw, he needed something like this. He has been looking really frustrated when he plays, so it's good he can trust his legs again.

I dunno about the Benzema vs Higuain battle though, I hope they both can accept rotation and play in that, but IMO best would be to GTFO di maria and play Higuain as a CF and Benz as a LW/RW

That bothered me for awhile... his frustration got in the way of his game. thankfully wasnt the case yesterday. Higuain has alot to improve though.

As someone else said, higgy has benched a long list of supposedly more talented players...

True. Sometimes just scoring is better. A prescense in the box is better than creativity. All I ask is someone who can be clinical inside the box. Sure Benz can miss some, but he is young and can still improve. Same goes with Higuain and his CL woes. He can also improve from that.
