Keenan Bennetts - Spurs Academy 19:53 - Jul 6 with 1403 viewschrismakin

Im not sure if im the only one who missed it, but did many of you know he moved abroad from Spurs Academy?

It's interesting watching this video of him that he's pretty much the same player now, it's incredible that he just hasn't developed over 4 years. I do wonder if he might be one that develops later and one you might see again further down the line?




I wandered how we came across him, perhaps he was one Klug had kept an eye on?

He just isn't very good. Maybe in a higher level with plenty of time on the ball, he might be able to do something for someone, but for us, utter crap.

I know it’s an extremely unpopular opinion, but I actually think there’s a player in there somewhere.

Still only 22 and played a decent amount of senior football. Seems very raw and one that wouldn’t surprise me if he flourished in a couple of years.

I have no idea what the German level is like where he is, but i'd be putting him somewhere that is on level with our league 2 where he will get 30-40 games over a season or 2

He may well flourish in a really low standard of football in some footballing outpost like Armenia.

He’s the sort of player that looks good simply because he has good technique and does the odd step over and body serve. But he doesn’t seem to do anything.

Football’s a game of opinions, I respect yours.

Admittedly a few years ago now, but Monchengladbach must have seen something in him to take him to the Bundesliga. Whilst I don’t expect him to play there or anywhere near that standard yet, I just felt like he actually had something about him (admittedly we very very rarely saw it).

Each to their own and I might be completely wrong, but he’s a player I could see flourishing in the Championship as an example in a few years. I’d be interested to see what he’d be like in a better team than we had last season.

You might well be right but I just can’t see it. I think a championship may well take a punt on him simply due to his footballing background but don’t think he’ll play that many matches at that level.

Obviously, he’ll rip it up and end up in the Premier League within a couple of seasons.

I think we all knew that. Classic case of potential as a youngster based on superior physical attributes ahead of his cohort, but then can't become a footballer (see also Nouble, to a lesser extent - I don't think Bennetts will have as good a career as Nouble).

Poll: Do you think Pert is key to all of this?

He's got so much ability but he just doesn't know how best to utilise it. You can be a trick wizard, but if you don't know when to pass or shoot it's going to cost you.

I've described him as a fast football body, slow football brain in the past. Get the latter sorted and he can be excellent.
