| Bennie. 17:19 - Apr 6 with 35758 views | connell10 | When I first saw him , I thought just another young player who won't amount to much , but now I'm thinking there might be a very good player there! Ironically my change in heart was caused by his 2 missed chances today. Yes sure he didn't score from 2 presentable chances but the lad was in the right place to miss those chances. Yep I think he might be quite a good player , I'm converted. |  |

| Bennie. on 22:08 - Apr 7 by mart_Goblin | It’s ridiculous isn’t it? Writing Bennie off when in career terms he’s barely kicked a ball . Another doesn’t like Kolli because , well….he's a bit greedy ? Edit - oh and I forgot the thread now having a pop at Morrison now too . Tremendous [Post edited 7 Apr 22:11]

I like Bennie . He’s a very good prospect . As for the Morrison thread . I think it’s been very positive. People quiet like him . Me included and I hope he returns. |  | |  |
| Bennie. on 08:19 - Apr 8 with 4642 views | gazza1 | He has a 'chance', that's it. Too early to 'write off', not good enough to 'sing his praises'. Time will tell over the next 18 months. He is going to need to improve his game all around. |  | |  |
| Bennie. on 22:38 - Apr 8 with 4381 views | numptydumpty | He seems to get in the right places and when games get stretched towards the end of proceedings as Connell says in the opening of this thread, he is doing well in the first place to get into those positions to score, anyhow. The composure has time to develop, for sure. He, by his very style, being a bit all arms and legs and seemingly not in control belies his actual abilities for me. He is far better than an initial snap evaluation could see. Think he will develop in the next two years when he will still only be 21. I personally think a loan to a L2 top half side could do him wonders. One for the conveyabelt, I would suggest..... But certainly far from a no hoper IMHO..... [Post edited 8 Apr 22:39]

| Bennie. on 13:16 - May 11 with 3684 views | NorthantsHoop | Think a loan to League 1 or 2 team would be good, especially if he is loaned out to play in a strikers role either centre or on the right. He has definately come on a bit this season and deserves to be developed at a lower level and see what he can do. |  | |  |

| Bennie. on 14:22 - May 11 with 3479 views | dmm | I think it's quite likely Bennie will be the only QPR player at the World Cup. I've been pretty sceptical about him making it as a Championship player but I really hope he proves me wrong. Go for it, Cobber. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Im not so sure he’ll be going. This call up may be just a way of ensuring he doesn't commit to Scotland who he also qualifies for. It’d be amazing if he does though. Always good to see a young man at the start of his footballing career progressing and it’s obviously good for us too. Or you could just take the pişş out of a player you clearly dont rate. I suppose it depends what kind of person you are. (This is not directed at you DMM) [Post edited 11 May 15:54]

Off to Dundee United for the season. This may suggest that Kone is likely to be fit and Kolli not necessarily departing. [Post edited 30 Jul 6:55]

When I first saw him I thought no chance. However last summer he obviously spent a lot of time in the gym and bulked his upper body up and he looked vastly improved last season. He is a good trainer hugely dedicated and this is a great loan for him and a real chance to go up another level. Wishing him all the very best. Go and smash it Bennie lad....... |  | |  |
| Bennie. on 08:22 - Jul 30 with 2042 views | Northernr | I think this is a good move for all parties, and much more the sort of loan we should be doing. I'd have preferred League One, I think, but this is a lot better than the National League loans we usually get for our players, or him heading off into a less physically demanding league in CEE. I've never really been sure about Bennie. He doesn't seem to have a position. We've tried a couple of times to play him as a centre forward on a flat track (Oxford, mostly) and it hasn't gone well. He's missed some absolute stone cold sitters at Oxford and Preston. But then against Hull and Heerenveen he pulls out finishes of a genuinely quality player and against Derby at home last year he was electric. So, there's something there. I think he gets pushed/hyped in QPR internet land because he's one of Christian's projects, and because he's not Rayan Kolli frankly. Be great for him and the club if that comes to fruition, and I think we'll really find out a lot with this move. Good deal on all sides, much more the sort of loan we should be doing. |  | |  |

Argeed - hopefully they can find out what his best position is! For me he's definitely not a striker. His movement in the box and finishing are evidence enough of that. Neither is he a player who should be positioned much deeper. Best position might be a high attacking winger, but he doesn't have the dribbling and other attributes of our other wingers, so should be around 5th in line at most currently |  |

| Bennie. on 09:18 - Jul 30 with 1863 views | tkqpr | Agreed a good move for him to get some more consistant action. It does beg the question though if the rumous about Kolli (there are always rumours about Kolli) going offski and the lesser spotted Obikwu's 'problems' it does leave us short upfront? I can see a Nourry purchase being made in that department for sure. Bim Pepple from Plymouth anyone?? |  | |  |

One good decision after another. This ongoing level of competence is becoming intolerable. Sack Nourry! |  | |  |
| Bennie. on 12:46 - Jul 30 with 1593 views | loftus77 | Dundee United, fck it - why not? All the best Daniel. |  | |  |
| Bennie. on 12:49 - Jul 30 with 1577 views | Wilkinswatercarrier | I really rate Bennie. For a just turned 20yo he has shown some really good moments, which in fairness, have been pretty much cameo appearances. He is younger than both Morgan and Kolli, and I rate him higher than both of them. He just looks physically more robust and an all round better footballer. Longer term, probably a striker. A massive loan for him, and QPR, sink or swim time. Fingers crossed. |  |

| Bennie. on 13:04 - Jul 30 with 1495 views | RBlock | I'm really keen to see how Bennie progresses up there - like others, I thought he looked miles off when he first came through but he's come on leaps and bounds, and credit to the coaching staff in the DS and first team there. Would love to see him get a proper run as a central striker and seeing whether he can build on his movement and hold-up play. He's been great in games for the DS, finished really well, and needs to continue that at a higher level. |  | |  |
| Bennie. on 13:15 - Jul 30 with 1438 views | francisbowles | What I think he needs most is to build his confidence. Hopefully, this is the opportunity to do so and it will help to prevent more missed chances. |  | |  |
| Bennie. on 13:18 - Jul 30 with 1430 views | Hugey | Optimistically on those missed sitters last year - at least he was getting the chances. Can think of a few QPR strikers who weren't even doing that! Will be very interesting to see how this one goes- good luck to him. |  | |  |

I would think with a name like Bennie he has Scottish antecedents but not necessarily recent ones. |  | |  |
| Bennie. on 13:34 - Jul 30 with 1343 views | Superhoops2808 | I have huge respect for Daniel Bennie. He is from overseas, going off on loan as a young lad to hopefully better/further his career and come back as one of our first choices on the team sheet eventually and good luck to him I am biased I admit as I am in the Bennie offers more than Kolli camp, but Kolli could learn a lot from this move. Instead, if as has been suggested refusing to go out on loan |  | |  |
