Real Madrid v FC Barcelona - Supercopa de Espana: 2nd Leg
Benzema has not been prolific this season in front of goal

Let me start off by saying that Karim Benzema gets more criticism than he deserves. Though his goalscoring prowess has taken a hit, Benzema still plays an important role in Real Madrid's frontline. That is also one of the main reasons why Zinedine Zidane persists with him despite his poor returns.

Benzema is 30-years-old now. It is high time that Real Madrid got a worthy replacement for the Frenchman. The longer they delay it, the worse the situation will become.

He has 10 goals and 10 assists to his name but that's nowhere near what a Real Madrid striker should be contributing. Also, this could be the last window in which Real Madrid can cash in on Karim Benzema because if he kicks on in the same vein next season, he will get them even lesser amount of money.
