Wolves Loan Move For Bennett?


Sports journalist, Pete O'Rourke has tweeted tonight that Wolves are lining up a loan move for Norwich City winger, Elliot Bennett.

Bennett has been on loan at his old club, Brighton but with the sacking of Sami Hyypia and the loan finishing in January, his options are open and it seems he may make a return to the club where he began his career.

Not sure why we'd want him?

 

[Prof Heinz Wolff]

Relatively young, proven at this level, available, would suit as short term replacement for Sakho as well as providing longer term competition ?


The 22-year-old was a sensation in League One last season, scoring eight times and setting up more than 20 goals as Gus Poyet’s side won the title.

Don't think he has really played much since his bad injury last season which would be a concern. I didn't think he looked any good down here as a kid (his brother looked a miles better prospect) but he did do well for Brighton and when he first went to Norwich.

Better than Steven Elliot

 

[Premier Quality]

That was about 4 years ago prof and he's done buggerall since. I'd hope we can do a lot better.

 

[Prof Heinz Wolff]

Maybe an 'assists' video might be more useful... but wouldn't say no to these goals

Just checked, eight league starts in 18 months. It would have to be a loan initially because there's no way I'd want us spending money on a player fairly reliant on pace who hadn't fully proven recovery from a serious injury.

 

[Lord Knows]

Just speculating but it could be an interesting loan choice for Matt Jarvis, Ipswich or Wolves.

 

[Tony Towner]

I'm not sure they would let him go. He makes the bench most games and although he isn't playing it still must be enjoyable being around a side that is doing so well. Hypothetically though in the assumption that he has moved down there and lives somewhere in Essex then Ipswich would suit him better

Would Jarvis drop down to the Championship?

Would Jarvis drop down to the Championship?

I doubt it, he had the chance once before and didn't fancy it.

According to Twitter the Mirror is linking us with a loan move for Zeki Fryers, from Crystal Palace. Can't really see the logic for that...

 

[Edgmond Wolf]

Full back cover?

Would Jarvis drop down to the Championship?

Wouldn't be surprised to see him at the Albion by the end of Jan.

Good player but not the type we are short of.

 

[Alan]

Fryers is at Palace now?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Yeah, he's barely played. I'm not a fan, looks like a centre half playing at left back when he goes there and a left back at centre half when he's switched. His build means he's pretty cumbersome yet he somehow isn't in any way physically imposing. There are much better options out there.
