Bennett to Wolves

[saafend_seagull]

E Bennett was pretty poor, doesn't have any pace or strength. Still has a great cross on him though.

Didn't we sign him off wolves?

Yes, by Slade.

Yes, they'd just got promoted to the Premiership. If they'd stayed in the Championship, he would have stayed with them according to Mick McCarthy. I met MmC in a restaurant in Westerham, I think during the promotion season, and he said we had a special player and needed to look after him. I suppose not being a regular in the Norwich side (wasn't he superseded by Pilkington?), plus the injury have taken their toll. Now with us, he is having to play with no regular striker, with Baldock, Colunga, CMS and now Bent being chopped and changed during his time here, whereas before he had Forster, Murray and Barnes to supply.

Problem is Norwich have been reported as going to sell Redmond and play Elliott in that position remains to be seen if they do. If not we should be at the head of the queue to sign him.

Showed dissent (shaking his head) we he saw his number come up to be replaced yesterday.
He has openly said he spoke to Sami before he extended his loan to ensure he would play as that is the only reason he is with us.
Is doing a good job in difficult circumstances whilst getting fit after a lengthy lay off.

I did not think he should have been taken off. I also think we should sign him as a matter of urgency (if we can?). Nathan Jones did OK until the tactical substitutions.

I agree NJ f....d them up.we could have won that game as Reading without Murray were poor.

Replied to deleted post: ignore.

I wouldn't say he's been very poor?

Not quite the man he was when he was here before, but he was playing in a confident, promotion chasing side back then. I thought he was one of our better players yesterday. Will still always be a big favourite amongst our fans, I hope, wherever he ends up. I could see him doing well for Wolves.

Agree with this, and it was nice to see him usher the east stand to raise the noise level that's something I like to see from a player he obviously cares.

This...and to me its an extremely important issue.

Would probably have looked better in a proper 4-4-2, didn't work well as part of the front three. You need pace in that position and he doesn't have any.

So in my view it's just another badly judged signing.

 

[Bombadier Botty]

Canary Wolf then.

 

[BensGrandad]

Canary Wolf then.

I always said he will be too old when we need him but if only in January. He would be ideal to lay the ball down for CMS or Baldock and score some himself especially from EB crosses.

Not playing well in a side that is not playing well and where his role and team tactics change match by match.
Will do just fine in a team which is playing with confidence as his home town club have been for most of this season.

Actually, home town for EB is Telford - his mum still lives round the corner from me. Oh, and they really aren't playing with any confidence currently bottom of the conference.
