A monstrous presence on the pitch, both in terms of physique as well as performance, Benteke’s retention at Aston Villa has been a major success for the club. While his finishing prowess might not quite be in the same league as some of the others on this list, the sheer amount of dependence of his team on him should see him bag a few extra goals. From penalties to headers, most duties are jotted down against Benteke’s name, and he is certainly an outside contender for the boot.
