Christian Benteke

Christian Benteke is the kind of striker I find quietly reliable. Born in Kinshasa in 1990 and raised in Belgium, he's a 190cm target man who scored heavily for Aston Villa, then played Liverpool and Crystal Palace, and lately kept finding the net in MLS before a move to the UAE. People wrote off his peak years ago, yet he keeps producing wherever he lands. That stubborn knack for scoring ugly, physical goals is exactly what makes a forward dependable rather than glamorous. I respect the longevity; a striker who outlasts the doubters is doing something right.
