Former Arsenal striker Thierry Henry in an interview with talkSPORT has stated that new Liverpool signing Christian Benteke is one man he would have loved to play with the most. The Belgian international joined the Reds for a price of £32.5m from their Premier League rivals Aston Villa last month and was given the no.9 shirt.
The superstar striker scored a stunning goal on his debut for the Merseyside club in a friendly against Swindon Town.
Also, the Arsenal legend believes that the big Belgian’s playing style would suit manager Brendan Rodgers’ side quite well and he could push them into the top four once again. He told Drivetime, “When someone asks me a question like that [who would you most like to play with] I think straight away, ‘can I play with him? Can he play with me’?”
“I could have played with Benteke because I could have played off him. He can hold up the ball then I could have wandered around him. He takes all the knocks and kicks and I’m on the side.”
I think if he has an amazing season, Liverpool will be in the top four. It is a lot of pressure but that’s why they have paid the big money for him. I think if he does have a big season, one of those seasons where everything you touch goes in, he will be very important. He is a player that, right now when I look at the league, I would have liked to play with him, said Henry.
Here is Bentake’s maiden goal for Liverpool:
