abdomlahor Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Paul Lambert could be bucking the trend of his summer transfer work so far by buying British as he returns to Norwich City for midfielder Elliott Bennett. So far during this close season, the Scot has shunned domestic purchases in favour of overseas targets. But it appears that the final piece of Lambert's jigsaw could be closer to home than the five signings he has made since the season's end. Reunion: Paul Lambet is hoping to sign Elliott Bennett (left) from his former club He intends to return to Carrow Road for the midfielder who has only one year to run on his present contract with the Canaries. Bennett has played in 56 league games for Norwich since his move in the summer of 2011 when they were promoted to the Premier League. So far Lambert's acquisitions have included Aleksandar Tonev for £2.5m from Lech Poznan, Jores Okore from Nordsjaelland, Leandro Bacuna from Groningen, Nicklas Helenius from Aalborg and Antonio Luna from Sevilla. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2345989/Paul-Lambert-look-home-shores-hopes-reunion-Norwichs-Bennett.html?ITO=1490&ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter Don't know much about him to be honest.

479Villan Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 If Elliot Bennett is the last piece of the puzzle, PL is working on a different jigsaw than what I previously believed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czechlad Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Wouldn't be a bad back up to have but I'd rather let Albrighton have one more go before we go signing any wingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciggiesnbeer Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 I strongly doubt it. Lambert is strongly disliked by Norwichs chairman , I do not beleive we will be doing any business with them. "I cant even buy air in Norwich." - Paul Lambert 2013 . I doubt anything has changed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa-revolution Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 I wouldn't be shocked by any transfer Lambo pulls off in this transfer window, not even Lionel Messi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SikhInTrinity Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 His name is Ellioto Bennetti, is he any better, for me he's good to have as an option in the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fazilla Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Rubbish player. If Lambert rates him that is good enough for me. He has worked with this player so with due respect I would value Lambert's opinion over yours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morley_crosses_to_Withe Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Rubbish player. I don't believe for one moment that you've seen enough of him to say this. I've read a number of Norwich fans' opinions and they seem to generally agree that he's a decent player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaGoMarching Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 I think he's been a decent option, from what I've seen of him. Can beat a man on the outside, with a trick or his pace. Delivery not bad either. Former Walsall player isn't he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SikhInTrinity Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Former Wolves youth player, think he's from the area so for this move to happen he's going to have to push it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8pints Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 I think the twist will be that we're actually in for his brother Kyle from Doncaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only an average player, we need someone better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morpheus Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Two Bennetts in our team would just be too much to take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 I think Lambo just likes players called Bennett. Weren't there like 3 at Norwich? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 (edited) I think Lambo just likes players called Bennett. Weren't there like 3 at Norwich? There was 3 on the pitch in the home game against them. One for us (joe), two for them (ryan, elliot) Edited June 22, 2013 by StefanAVFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cambridge-AVFC Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 He's pacy, which is great for all us FIFA players out there . He's an adequate backup to Gabby or Andi so I have no issues with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
