Perez presented him as a mix of Zidane and Ronaldo (R9) when he signed him. Sir alex Ferguson compared him to Zidane before he even set foot in Madrid although he was already playing CF and [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pkEFdFdKWgA&t=1s)you have Zidane agreing they share similatities in the way they move when he was still playing for Lyon. (Zidane was a consultant at the time for french TV while learning his futur job of coach)
More like Shevchenko+Zidane.
Benzema was never slow, but he never had the insane explosiveness that R9 had.
That's what made R9 such a freak.
He had the dribbling, speed, strength, ball control and vision wrapped in one.
There have been forwards with better careers but there still hasn't been one since who was such a complete package.
He missed alot of early games from an injury he sustained with france last year in the euros. After that there was the whole contract renewal debacle which is still ongoing but hes really been one of our best players and much more consistent in the 2nd half of the season under xavi. Hes joint top assister in la liga with like half the games played. Definitely his best period of form since he joined.

Looooool Benz Luka Modric man
Very definition of "threading the needle"
Commenter [here](https://youtu.be/OYQwc4Hq1i4?t=391) had some slightly different hobbies in mind when he saw that.
Dude was straight up dancing Samba…
Reminiscing one of his iconic goals with us, [against Caen](https://youtu.be/BubpAkuP79w). But the GK didn't buy the fake here, so he kept going.
What a goal that was
the audacity
Well he always says his model in football and the player that inspired him the most is Ronaldo (R9)...
It indeed resembled Ronaldo Phenomenon
Benzema is playing like prime Ronaldo with a pinch of Zidan
I've always thought Benzema was like if Zidane had been a striker. Maybe it doesn't make sense to anyone else but that's how I've always seen it.
It does, my man

He’s R9+Zidane

Benzema was always pretty slow tbh. The guy was never about the speed.
Why do you think Zizou absolutely loves Benzema, game recognizes game
Mohamed Zidan vibes indeed
The pass from Godric... Benzy really denied him a 4th assist 😤
20 goals 20 assists ✅
In all competitions or just La Liga?
All competitions
All comps
All competitions, counting the penalties won.
All competitions
40 g+a season achieved ✅
Holy shit that’s incredible.
More goal contributions than Haaland, just saying.
Like twice as many games
Also including UCL round of 16, quarters and semis. Hopefully he will contribute in the finals too.
Hopefully he wont 😬
In substantially more games I think.
Not necessarily a bad thing. Availability is key.
True. But to the kid's credit, he is not a striker.
Yeah, Haaland would score 2x Vini’s goals, and still lose to Bochum, Mainz, Gladbach…
who cares?
He only has 16 assists. Transfermarkt count pens won as assists.
Tbh a pen won is more impressive than a lot of assists, it makes sense imo
it doesn’t, should be a separate stat entirely
that's why he gave him the ball
third player to do it after henry and messi?
Those two did it league only. Vinicius is all comps
[удалено]
Benzema is still on 12 (13 maybe after today) assists in the league unfortunately
Benz wanted an assist, saw Mariano and decided to wait for Vini.
🤣🤣🤣
Lmaoooo
Me gusta 😂
Oi oi thats lord mariano alright
Levante with the 70-minute long guard of honour, how classy!
LOL
Absolute destruction
Benzema showing samba moves.
benzema doing the tangoooooo, i love this team so much
Benz so dirty
Soo many little touches.
Benzema league counter: 31 games 27 goals 12 assists!!!
Everybody running while Benzema is just skating on grass
Benzema is love Modric is porn
I don't even what the fuck this means but I'll upvote it anyway.
Karim Fenomeno
Benz was spazzing out lmao
He ate Vini in that one lol
Benzema was born with the dribbling gene. Also so selfless to set up Vini.
Good guy Benz not giving Luka his 4th assist of the match to keep him down to earth
Poor Levante, god damn
Holy fuck murdered him
It seems Benzema has been learning some dance moves, maybe a bit of Samba
these beautiful assists by luka keep coming in man wow
bro started dancing 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
What's the point or voting. Just give him. The balón d'or
Yea, modric deserves a second one.
My commentator joked and said Modric would deserve a ballon d'or for this game
He is playing out of his mind. Absolutely shredding Levante
Vini or Benzema or Modric?
yeah
That’s fucking football right there
Benz just wants chaos
This is what you call being graceful. I would’ve broken my ankle.
Lmao Benz busting out some break dance moves to celebrate catching up to Raul
That was the best thing i’ve seen in a while lmao
Give Benzema the Ballon d'Or already. My god what a player.
[удалено]
The problem is that we won't face Levante in CL final.
Not with that attitude
Benzema great dance.
Benzema fenômeno Ronaldo 😂
R9 if he was french.
Madrid scoring for fun and Liverpool might be missing Fabinho. Doesn't bode well.
That's some R9 shit from Benzema
The moves on Benz
Lol Benz juked that keeper totally dancing on the ball
Levante defenders tackling each other straight out of FIFA.
Benzema is bulling Levante at this point.
Benzema doing the fucking tango in front of the keeper
Poor Levante man, absolutely destroyed
i want to see a Benzema vs Saint-Maximin dance off
Easy goal for Vini but Benzema was dancing in front of the keeper haha
Cardenas didn't deserve this from Karim tonight. Went to the disco in front of him. Also robbed Luka off his 4th assist of the night.
Those feints are ridiculous 😂
my man busted out the Jay-Jay Okocha dribble in front of the keeper, oh lord
So disrespectful, I love it
what the hell was that Benzema?
Benz doing his best Gene Kelly impression ☔️
Benz went full panic mode for a sec
Benz did a R9 and that's 40 G+A for Vini this season.
Tf was benzema doing? It somehow worked ig
He wanted to feint the keeper but Cardenas did a good job staying on his feet so Benz hesitated and decided to look for the pass
He tried to GK go down but he was fine and hold Benzema
kkkkkk
Lmao Benzema
Benzema tried to copy the Mbappe goal against Courtois, or at least looked like it
Big Dick
Damn benzema really doesnt want to let dembele end as top assister
How was Dembele this season ? Any more consistent ?
He missed alot of early games from an injury he sustained with france last year in the euros. After that there was the whole contract renewal debacle which is still ongoing but hes really been one of our best players and much more consistent in the 2nd half of the season under xavi. Hes joint top assister in la liga with like half the games played. Definitely his best period of form since he joined.
Nice. I'll admit I had lost hope with him., but if he works seriously he can really be one of the best.
This guy turned it around. He was pretty shit when he came in and now he's a very different player
Sure... you get to be bought millions by what is arguably the most popular club in the world when you are "pretty shit"...
He was amazing in his first season at barely 18. The raw talent was there.
Benz getting into his bag haha
u/savevideo
Finally a proper Tapinaldo replacement /s
