None of what you are saying I am disagreeing with per se. People slagging him off on twitter are cunts, lowlife scum and trolls none of which I have time for and I am sure neither does he, little difference to those cunts that shout abuse from the touchline at our own players. Having followed him on twitter for a while he receives thousands of tweets from Spurs fans wanting him back during his time out on loan, for every hater there were hundreds that adored him and showed their love.

But upon leaving the club for which he played the bulk of his professional career, where he WAS supported and held in high esteem by the fans, he leaves with two fingers raised, (again, I don't care if he feels aggrieved with the club or not, even more so when non of us know what has gone on) but not a word to the fans that supported him, that reveals the man he really is.........a self centred cunt.
Ok but i still am yet to see where the "two fingers raised" are??? If you mean the freedom picture then i think you're being very over dramatic. He's freed from a contract and posts a picture saying the word freedom. The guy has been waiting 2 years for that moment. Its no Nelson Mandela stretch, granted. But i imagine he's glad all the same. I haven't checked today, but i didn't see him make any digs on twitter. He hadn't actually said anything about it!
By all means people can think he's a cunt and i don't want to come across like I'm jumping to defend him. I like the guy but I'm indifferent at best. He's not out player anymore and i doubt our paths will ever cross (although saying that... i have met him a couple of times because he used to get the train to QPRs training ground which wasn't far from where i worked) but i don't understand where he's supposed to have insulted the club. Or the fans. Which i am ? i mean, SHOULD i feel insulted? The fact he's posting pictures with Ledley King smiling and has been attending plenty of games doesnt suggest to me he's particularly angry. We know what he's like anyway, he's hardly the type to make subtle digs and hold petty grudges...

.I can understand frustration toward him because of how it all ended including the french racist symbol. But his actions and comments historically were hardly those of a pantomime villain. And even when he made the gesture i think he deserved understanding and pointed criticism not shaming or silence
 
What other footballer would even think about posting and commenting on the photo of a Syrian refugee child dead on a Turkish beach ? Only Benny. Bravo Benny.

Je ne sais pas si je dois me considérer chanceux d'être en Europe ! ou avoir honte des complots et de la manipulation envers les pays du tiers-monde... Repose en paix ...

I had not seen that photo, until now (I had avoided it). Chilling.

It puts transfers meltdowns and life in general into perspective doesn't it.

I may disagree with his politics but what wrong about a footballer being politically aware and not paying most of his attention to cocaine and slags? He feels very strongly towards this issue (and other immigration related issues due to his French experience), I don't see things eye to eye with him but I wish more footballers were politically aware

I assumed he was applauding him for speaking out.
 


That is truly hilarious, was going to
post a gif but no gif can sum this up, Benny will certainly get more views in his new career than he would playing for Birmingham.

I wonder though, couldn't he do both careers, I am sure the porn industry could make use of an active footballer.
 
Full quote:

A jovial Redknapp told the Spurs Show podcast: "I got a phone call, 'Mr Redknapp I have a fantastic player for you, one of your old players, Benoit'.

"I'm thinking, 'yeah', somewhere inside you think 'I can get him going again'. The only trouble is that he's admitted he wants to be a porn star.

"Maybe I can get another year out of him before he decides to do that. What a good player. He could well end up in the Birmingham colours next year, Benoit."
