Ben Whiteman

[philsky]

For me, Ben is like Stock but with a bit of pace.

Never appears rushed, always finds a pass and quietly goes about his business.

Has he not played every minute of every league game thus far ?

I think that we are watching a player "coming of age" this season with Ben. When he first arrived I think we could all see that he had "something" but an injury clearly hampered his development and it seemed to take him awhile to get going again. He is clearly rising to the challenge of leading the team and from what I've seen so far this season he is trying to lead by example. I'm loving his calm composure on the ball and how he is making time and space by his movement with the ball. He is clearly growing in self belief and confidence with every game and this positive is rolling out throughout the squad. DM & BW appear to be a perfect fit together in style of play and I think we are in for a very interesting and entertaining season again at the Keepmoat.
