Benzema was good provider for Ronaldo, but he isn't a natural goal scorer and was never going to fill the gaping whole Ronnie left behind. He has been found out this season for the distinctly average player he is.Thinking Benzema is better than Kane is a straight up bizarre opinion these days. He's better at nothing now, he's a shadow of a striker. He has half as many goals and half as many assists as Kane in the league this season.
A few years back he was up there with the best strikers, though for me never the best, but he's not been top tier for a while. Escaped being replaced because Ronaldo guaranteed a stupid amount of goals a season and enjoyed a solid partnership with him, but I expect he won't last too much longer there.
If a certain somebody was named 'Kanaldo' (which sounds a bit shite but you get the picture) his stock would be considerably higher across the globe. I'm convinced of that. Or just paranoid. Both options are equally plausible.
