Liverpool Transfers: 10 Dream Alternatives To Loic Remy

10. Christian Benteke (Aston Villa)

Whilst Christian Benteke may still be injured, there is no doubting that Aston Villa have a potentially top class striker on their hands at Villa Park. Benteke suffered a lull in form last season before his 2013/14 campaign was cut short with injury, but he was mightily impressive for Villa in the Premier League in his debut season. When on form and confident, Benteke is one of the most unforgiving strikers in the Premier League, boasting excellent shooting ability and brutal physicality to scare opposition defenders. His attributes make him more than a target man too, able to rival Remy in the pace department as the Belgian striker is himself willing to chase through balls. Benteke is equally adept at playing with his back to goal and would provide Liverpool with many different options as Brendan Rodgers hopes to continue with his tactical tinkering in the new campaign for the Reds. The only problem in chasing the striker could be his inflated price tag, given he has shown bags of Premier League potential already but still remains only 23 years old. But if the Reds are looking to sign a player who can continue to develop his talents into proven ability, they would become perhaps the most feared attack in the country.
