Remember the name Kyle Bennett.
Fulham fans have been warned Doncaster Rovers’ forgotten man of last year is firing on all cylinders ahead of tonight’s Capital One Cup clash at Craven Cottage.
Bennett was loaned out to Crawley and Bradford last term as he failed to dislodge star duo David Cotterill and Mark Duffy.
But with the Rovers duo out the door summer, Doncaster Free Press reporter Hayley Paterson says the winger has emerged as one of three danger men for this evening’s visitors.
She said: “Kyle Bennett was a forgotten man last season.
"He went out on loan to Bradford and Crawley but he’s come back and taken over from David Cotterill and Mark Duffy who both moved to Birmingham City in the summer. He plays on the wings and scored at the weekend in a 3-2 win over Chesterfield.
“He just didn’t cut it last season. He was going to be a bit-part player so he was sent out on loan because Cotterill and Duffy’s form was so good and there just wasn’t room for him. He went elsewhere to get first-team football.
“They’ve gone now though and Kyle has shown Paul Dickov what he can do. Paul is fond of a cup run and he will be taking it seriously. I expect the team he picks won’t be too different from the one he put out on Saturday.”
Paterson has picked out another goalscorer from Saturday as her second player for Fulham to keep a close eye on, while also highlighting the contribution made by one Donny midfield ace who is hard to pin down.
She added: “Nathan Tyson joined pre-season and he’s one who will run himself into the ground for you. He’s got a never-say-die attitude and will chase lost causes and use his pace to run at defenders.
He scored at the weekend as well so he’s full of confidence.”
“Richie Wellens is a superb player and really pulls the strings for Doncaster. He ruled the roost against Chesterfield on Saturday and he’s a bit of a talisman for them in the middle of the park.”
