Benzema is quality, far better than Giroud and he links up brilliantly with Özil. Their La Liga winning partnership in 11/12 was quality.
I loved Benzema as a player a few years ago but he lacks any sort of drive in his game. Maybe it's the environment he's at in Madrid. Playing second fiddle to Ronaldo must be pretty emasculating.
Not seen him this season mind you, I guess he's doing better?
