He is clearly a 'project' for the future but I just hope he doesn't go down the same path as Dimitri Sea or Courtney Baker-Richardson. Ignored,farmed out,forgotten then released with everyone and his brother having a derogatory opinion even though they've hardly seen them in action
Sea just ran around a lot on the pitch

He generally came across to me as another Donovan Makoma who last I heard was playing Sunday league level in London somewhere

They are both French, black and have dreadlocks ..... But to compare them in footballing terms is a bit of a stretch

At 22 letters and one hyphen Benni will be one short of Courtney (unless Benni chooses to be known as Benjamin of course) but it feels now like our squad is complete.

My sympathies go out to Adam. By the time you’ve said ”…and what a screamer from Benni Smales-Braithwaite” they’ll have restarted.
So, can we make up a team of double-barrelled players yet? I can remember:
Smales-Braithwaite
Driscoll-Glennon
Wilmer-Anderton
Baker-Richardson
Amadi-Holloway

...but I'm sure there must be a few more I've forgotten.

Can’t count poor Nick Anderton. The Wilmer was a typo.
