Midfield

[The Bedlington Terrier]

Great result. Benfica is a top club.

Looking at the selections in pre-season, what has happened to Benson? Is he injured?

Word yesterday is he is injured and I don't think he has travelled which in my cynical logic thinks he's being traded or sold.

Thanks BT. On the question on midfield, where does Redmond fit in and, if we sign him up, Townsend? I would have thought that they would be part of the midfield set up?

We need a fair sized squad with plenty of practical and tactical options, Townsend and Redmond give us bags of experience and they can play a bit too! Both come on frees, there's not much not to like Sc.
