Real Madrid 2-2 Valencia: Fans react to Benema's performance

Karim Benzema was heavily criticised for his display against the Los Murciélagos after missing a number of decent scoring chances.  The Frenchman's blushes were spared by an Asensio double, that helped rescue a point for the home side.

Here's how fans on Twitter reacted:

We stayed up until 4am to watch lord #Benzema waste 7 clear chances. Why didn't Zidane sub him out? I almost broke my remote #BenzemaOut

Dear, Zidane

We accept that we are stuck with #Benzema forever but could you please sign another striker!!
Thank you.

Even #PSG with #Cavani is chasing #Mbappe but some how we are okay with KING #Benzema & Moyoral.

Not one but six clear scoring opportunities all missed by #Benzema yet my coach says he needs no other striker. Amazing

If you can't blame a player for missing chances what'll you blame 😑 #Benzema #ZZ his boots?

Bayern Munich has world class striker but no backup striker Madrid has neither world class nor backup striker. #Benzema #RealMadridValencia

— Ishan Verma (@Ishan_The_Gr8) August 28, 2017

So u rather have a #benzema that performs at most 5x a season than have a real #striker that offer a lot of goals throughout the season?

#Benzema is a quality player but damn, his misses did cost #realmadrid points! Like this may lose more points in future too! #RMAVAL #RMCF
