I don't know what you have just written because it makes no sense, but you do know that Nicklas Helenius is just one player right?

For a big lad you expect him to be strong and powerful in the air but the boy as some good feet and tekkers about him. Dare I say more impressed than the Benteke clips last year

Does anybody think this may be a sign that Benteke is leaving?

Has crossed my mind since I heard.

Hopefully not , but we will probably soon know.
It would be good for the lad to have a year here to find his feet before possibly replacing benteke .

I'd really love to see us get another season from Benteke. Hoping this is back-up with a view to challenging for a first-team place eventually. Or, could he lead to Benteke becoming the new Darren Bent, i.e. being pushed out by a relative unknown...

In Lambert we Trust ;)

Personally think he will come in as a replacement for Bent not Benteke.

A £800k - £1m striker coming in to replace £40 trillion rated Benteke? Erm..I don't think so.

He must be knocking on a bit. Judging by his name he appears to have been born in Ancient Rome.

Wasnt his club managed by Villa captain Bruce Rioch sometime after he left Arsenal?  I havent checked but the name rings a bell.

I think he'll just replace Bent on the bench in the short term.  Welcome Nicklas, look at what Nicklas Bendtner did and do exactly the opposite, shouldn't go far wrong.

This is how I read it, whether in one year or two.

As good a chance that he's a replacement for Bowery as Bent or Benteke (but not Beimann or Babby).

Definitely looks like a good prospect. Looks like Villa are being sold in Europe as the club where young players will get a chance, very positive.
