Not in pace, but acceleration. Bit like Holmes who can burst up 2 gears over a couple of steps to beat a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Bennett strikes me as a player that is always punching up. He's a tireless worker, will leave everything out on the pitch and is actually pretty consistent in his performances. I just don't think he's got the technical ability to play in the Championship, a solid League One player who plays with his heart on his sleeve and will battle away - until he gets injured. I'd personally allow him to leave, but wish him all the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamikaze Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 24 this year. His 90 appearances for us over the years have amounted to 6 goals and 6 assists Im talking the likes of Whittaker, Tyree Wilson and Festy who are 17 or even Mitchell-Lawson 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenBr Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 I'll throw in Lawrence for free if Rowett takes Bennett from us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many warning points would get me banned for ever on here? I have one already expiring end of March. Are you able to permanently bar me? I don't mean from posting. I mean from even looking. The majority are F' in clueless. Not funny, even tho they think they are. Yet I keep coming back for a cheeky look. Please tell me how I can bail out.

He is quick, strong and provided some important goals and assists as well as finding some form end of last season and start of this. Sign him on an extra 2 years, if he is decent then we win, If he isn’t, we can recoup some of our investment when he moves on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on last season, Bennett was extremely productive - 8 goal contributions in 34 apps is respectable for a young pro; especially when he was limited to only 1325 minutes on the field (better than 1 every 2 games). He wasn't brought on to give him minutes. He was brought on to win us points - we won more points from Bennett's goals/assists than we did from Lawrence's or Mount's! Imagine this scenario with a different 23 year old... 19/20 - played 4 games before getting injured 18/19 - played 17 games, scoring 3 and assisting 5 17/18 - played 11 games scoring 3 and assisting 1 16/17 - loan to a L1 club, played 8, scoring 1 and assisting 1 15/16 - loan to L1 club, played 5, scoring 1 14/15 - loan to L2 club, played 3, scoring 1 You'd probably be hoping he makes a quick recovery from injury and back in the first team asap. Well that's Bennett except for Bennett having a more stop-start career to date, managers preferring to buy experienced players instead (Anya, Blackman), and opportunities limited to mostly bench appearances.
