How about not signing Bentley at all and play Weiss on his natural right hand side? Just a suggestion.

Have I missed something? Why is he moaning twat now?

Keane and Crouch?
Haven't you noticed a certain Mr Defoe is scoring shed loads? Not a chance of Keane and Crouch being first choice combo.
And Rupert would still miss them!

He's potentially very dangerous playing on the counter attack with DeFoe, however, Bentley's potentially even more dangerous crossing the ball for Crouch to nod in/ down DeFoe so I recon Harry's getting rid because he's dead against drink driving rather than for purely football reasons.

He's getting rid cause Lennon is covering the right and Bentley is too one footed to switch sides. Modric is now injured long term and they will need someone over on the left, although I think Modric was wasted there. If they are signing Nico Krancjar then I cannot understand going after Petrov as well. Maybe Everton have succeeded in nicking him our from under Twitchy.

Many on here have complained about not having a plan B - This puts that to bed at a stroke - Rocky and Bentley on the bench ready if we need to go 4-4-2 and change a game - plus Bentley´s dead ball abilities and the fact that Les knows him and can help him re-start his career . Away from the bright lights and an arm round the shoulder from someone he trusts and he COULD reinvent himself
Well there are other plan B's than just hoofing speculative crosses from halfway line towards general direction of Santa's head.
I'd prefer our plan b to be slick passing football.

Strange post. Surely plan A is to play slick passing football and plan B would indeed be someone who can give quality crosses when plan A isn't working, as will sometimes be the case. SWP is the slick footballer on the right, but I despair at his crossing ability.
Also, Bentley can play in the middle, so both SWP and Stevie would have decent cover. One of my concerns being addressed, so no complaints for me.
Anyway, if he's not good enough he won't play very often, so no need for 'genuine concern'...

Or play SWP there and if he gets injured play Bentley or Miami and if Robbie gets injured Play either SWP there,Miami there or Bentley hell even Garrido or Sylvinho could cover if needs be.

He said a few weeks ago that he wasn't happy sitting on the bench and that a few clubs were after him and that he'll consider his future at City. I think a few days later Stevie Ireland came out with a comment about people knuckling down and fighting for their place.
