Toney would take us up another level but I don't think it's a priority position, get a couple of wingers and are we'd go even higher.
I’ll probably get a lot of heat for this, but IMO Toney has become one of the most overrated players on this board.

Lacks intensity, not a good presser and his record has been inflated by Penalties.

I think he’s not much of a team player on and off the pitch too, just seems a bit of a knobhead.

Not controversial at all

He’s 100% a team player. He constantly brings his team mates into the game. That’s a team player.

I thought he’s always worked pretty hard off the ball for his team and also seems to make decent choices on the ball. Really good hold up play.

He’s probably too old for us to pay the type of money that Brentford would want maybe, and he wouldn’t be my first choice, but I reckon his offensive numbers would look a lot better playing in a team like ours and he’s an absolute fucking pain n the arse for defenders. We could/should do better, but could do worse.

You can think he's a bit of a twat and that his goal record isn't overly impressive but in terms of teamwork he's one of the best strikers around at link up. Probably the strongest part of his game, technically very good and constantly wants to bring teammates in to it.

I think he's one of those where his record in terms of g/a would get a huge boost playing for a better side who don't play the way Brentford do.
 
3 months without a goal in the Saudi league for Benzema :cool:
He's 36 so too old now for the EPL I reckon...


Karim Benzema's Saudi nightmare continues as he takes aim at his OWN team-mates at Al-Ittihad, blaming them for his three-month goal drought and claiming he can't 'win games on his own'​

  • Karim Benzema has blamed his Al-Ittihad team-mates for not supporting him
  • He has struggled to hit the same heights that he did in his final years at Madrid
  • Jurgen Klopp has the eye of the tiger! He hasn't seemed this confident since 2019 - Listen to the It's All Kicking Off podcast

Karim Benzema has blamed his Al-Ittihad team-mates for not supporting him in defence of his three-month goal drought.
The former Real Madrid forward was the Saudi Pro League side's marquee signing last summer, joining from the Spanish giants on a free transfer.
The Frenchman - who signed a three-year deal with the club - has struggled to hit the same heights that he did in his final years at Madrid.

However, the former Ballon d'Or winner says it's the quality of his team-mates that is stopping him from reaching the same level of success.
The 36-year-old has said he needs more support from his team-mates on the pitch and that he can't be expected to win the game alone.
