He's been a game changer for us this year. I liked Donaldson last season. He was the only player from the rabble we signed that I would have kept. However he did look a wee bit raw & prone to the odd rash challenge/mistake, pairing him up with Bene would've suited him down to the ground. Bene is the kind of centre half every club need, at this level anyway. No nonsense defender. Sam Fisher is a big loss by the way. Hope Breen is ready to come straight back in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I wouldn’t have him. He is slow as a week in the jail. Burrell showed that in the game over there. He will get through this league but it is now his level and it suits him that Dunfermline sit deep against anyone with anything about them so he can’t get caught over the top. Amazed he hasn’t had a red card yet. Time for that mind you………. Wait and see the bees all buzzing along now…. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthStander1876 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Tbf I think it's a bit stubborn to say you wouldn't take him. Been top 2 centre halfs in the league this season, probably the best if we take off the navy tinted goggles. Donaldson and Benedictus would be an incredible pairing for either club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on, the game at EEP we went out all guns blazing and that is why Burrells had joy in the first half. Like any defender, they will be tested more under pressure. The game at TFS, Bendictus had his slippers on all game. He would walk into our defence. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bairn88 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 If Benedictus was ours we’d almost definitely not be 7 points behind the Fifers. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Toun Clock Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I liked Donaldson, solid centre half but absolutely has that chance of a bomb-scare moment but Benedictus has been streets ahead of any centre half we've had for about five years. I know he's playing league one, but he's quality. Calm under pressure, always wants the ball, no big hoofs up the park, a leader etc, everything we've wanted for years. The last centre half we had like that was Callum Morris but he's not as good a defender as Bene I don't think. Totally agree, a pairing of Bene and Donaldson would be very good at this level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read it as he's still raw and we're looking for a bit more of a finished article. However, he might be plan B if one of those doesn't materialise.

No they played high up the pitch - just as I said - came to TFS and sat deeper than the Atlantic Ocean. I wouldn’t want him genuinely.

SouthStander1876 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 There's a reason dunfermline have the least goals conceded by a long way, and Benedictus is key to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
