Wolverhampton Wanderers fans were asking for Ryan Bennett to partner Willy Boly and Conor Coady in defence. The fans were responding after being asked the question by club news account Wolves Live.
Bennett has been out of the squad in recent weeks, missing the last two Premier League games at home to Chelsea and away to Crystal Palace (via Transfermarkt).
However, he did play in the penalty shootout victory over Reading on Wednesday night, receiving the highest rating from WhoScored, as well as appearing against Braga.
The centre-half enjoyed a fine game for Wolves, having the fifth-highest pass completion rate of any player on the pitch. He also won three aerial duels and one tackle, while not being dispossessed in the game.
Fans were adamant that Bennett should start alongside Boly and Coady as they took to Twitter to give their opinions.
Here is a selection of tweets from the Molineux faithful after they were asked who should play in defence:
Bennett. Play Saiss in midfield instead of Dendoncker. Allowing Neves to roam forward more instead of playing as a fourth CB

Saiss at the back never has and never will work, Vallejo physically doesn’t look up to speed yet. Therefore, has to be Bennett. Although he has struggled in the league this season.

Anybody but Vallejo he is awful.

Bennett, without doubt.

Bennett. Easily the most reliable of the three. I’d have Kilman before Vallejo any day
