Not that this should mean anything, but I remember Joe Bennett walking past me at a pre-season friendly with ridiculously coiffed hair. I suspected then that he thought he'd made it when in reality he hadn't even started.

Bennett is too slow and immobile to be a full back, but on the other hand you wouldn't want to try him at centre back either as he's to prone to mistakes. He does have more of the physical attributes for that role though.

Are we talking about the same player? 5ft 10, ten stone, built-like-he's-made-out-of-wet-tissue-paper Joe Bennett has the physical attributes to be a centre-back?

More than he has to be a full back yes. What's up with you anyway?

I don't think that anything's up with me.

Just slightly taken aback by the suggestion that the smallest, weediest defender currently on our books should be touted as having the physical attributes to play centre-back.

Is that your normal tone then? Lovely

Personally I've never seen the kid as a full back, and I don't see him as quite as weedy as made out. Clark is hardly a brick wall but most on here think he's improved. Bennett is probably not up to it at this level in any position so it's a pointless argument really.

Yeah Dave chill the f**k out maaaan. Like geez.

How about Bennett as a striker, just off Benteke?

A bit too close to Gordon Bennett!

Sorry did somebody honestly just suggest that Bennett plays at centre back? And as for comparisons with Clark's size, ask that Leicester player he nearly broke in two if Ciaran is tough enough!

You do realise we signed Joe Bennett and not Gary?

Actually no. Just the opposite if you look.

The toughest thing about Joe Bennett is his bryclreem solid hair, the massive vagina.

Joe Bennett, who makes Walter from Dennis The |Menace look like Shaun Teale. I confess I'm at a loss to see what he's seeing...



I think if you are going to stick him anywhere its wide left midfield

I agree, was going to say the same thing.

I think we've seen he could probably do a job of some sorts (whether a sufficiently good one, I don't know), but I can't see how he'd ever manage at centre half.

My sources tell me we haven't signed Amavi because Ads started this thread before he should have and jinxed it.

His Nosferatu-esque shadow still cast long over the club, despite him getting the push

First his disastrous spell as manager and now this!
