Re: ARTICLE: Benson extends his stay at Burnley

It's fabulous news, i just hope his trademark "cut inside and curl it to the far post" is as deadly in the PL as it was last season. We shall see. Those four games on the bounce were just unbelievable especially when he evaded three defenders at Bristol when they knew what he could do-and he did!!!!
