' Great News / Joe Bennett / But '

Cardiff City star Joe Bennett takes to Twitter to give fans boost with fitness update ahead of Brentford clash -

Joe Bennett is fit :thumbright: :bluebird:

But Lee Peltier is serving one match ban after 5 yellow cards.


Thursday 16th November 2017


Cardiff City left-back Joe Bennett has given Neil Warnock a boost by taking to social media to reveal he is over his calf injury.

Bennett has not featured for the Bluebirds since hobbling off with a calf injury against Millwall at the end of October, but he revealed on Twitter that he would be available for selection this weekend for Cardiff's home clash with Brentford.


The 27-year-old had started 12 of Cardiff's opening 14 league matches until his injury against the Lions, which has forced him to miss the 3-1 victory over Ipswich and the disappointing 2-1 Severnside derby defeat.

With right-back Lee Peltier having picked up his fifth booking of the season against Bristol City last time out and a one-match suspension, the return of Bennett comes at a good time for Warnock - with the left-back set to slot straight back into the starting 11 this Saturday.

Perhaps with Bennett and Paterson both playing it will give a greater attacking threat. Peltier solid in defence (normally) but offers little going forward.

These are the two fullbacks I’ve been wanting to see I the team. Can’t wait to see them there if Warnock selects them.

Same for me our best 2 attacking fulbacks starting....think it will be a good gane sat. Brentford play good football and are bang in form. 3-2 city....

There’s probably room for the new guy Feltscher on the bench.
