Have seen him a few times this year and thought he was not Championship standard. He will still get a contract at that level, possibly a lower half Championship team.

wasnt ready for the premiership in reality and probably never will be, somewhere between League 1 and Championship i would say is his competetive regular level.

Quoted from Cayman_mariner


They probably don't like him cos he's only got 5 fingers on each hand    Plus I'm sure his Ipswich connections wouldn't help.




Not really the Ipswich thing. I think he is simply not good enough. From memory he didn't play much in the PL and has been average this season. They are getting a new management team and trying to cut the wage bill as well.

Personally I always regarded him as a good attitude, wholehearted player in the Pearson mould. Good in the air, decent tackler but would struggle to pass water and that's what has kept him out of the top rank.

Might as well sign Paul Nuttall.


Not him. I heard he had a chance at Stoke. Had an open goal and missed by a mile.

I saw your face and heard you call my name.

For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Not sure where he'll end up but it won't be with us!

Possibly Sheff UTD, big budget and will look to build a good championship squad

I always thought that he never marked anybody, just ran around looking for the ball.

It said a lot about the standard of our squad when, as an 18-year old, he stood out as one of our best players.

He played a lot of games for us before moving to Peterborough, and he was a regular there. Norwich is the first club he's been at where his name isn't on the team sheet week in, week out.

If I'm totally honest, I don't think he's the best defender in the world. He was part of a leaky defence while with us, and although Peterborough were in a higher division they were known for having a leaky defence too. They just knew how to outscore the opposition.

Bennett has never really been part of a side that's been mean in defence. I think he's a useful player to have at Championship level as he has the ability to compete at that level, but I reckon he'd stand out more if he played regularly as a League 1 defender.

On highlights of games past few years I've seen a poster above has summed up well. He is never tight to anyone, positionally at fault - possibly a case of losing his motivation? Maybe a new club will serve him well. Obviously talented,  will certainly get offers.

Never saw the big deal in him, although I was obviously wrong as he's somehow played top flight football, albeit as probably the easiest defender the likes of Suarez, Tevez and Aguero have ever came up against
