Benito Carbone

[Interista_Australiano]

Date of birth: 14 August 1971
Place of birth: Bagnara Calabra, Italy
Height: 1.68 m
Nickname: Benny Carbone
Position: Striker

Okay, so apparantly he had a stint with Internazionale. Although I wasn't really into football back then. Nowadays he's signed with Sydney FC as a "guest player", being a Melbourne Victory supporter I'm keen if anyone know's anything about "Carbone". Is he a good player? What's he like etc etc?

He was played out of position at Inter. He's a genuine striker, but Hodgson played him more as a creative midfielder. He wouldn't have made it here anyway, he's not world class.

His scoring record in England is ok, but nothing to write home about. He's a player who is capable of something special every now and then, but he's never been very consistent.

I think he'll go alright in the A-League. The standard has improved on last year, so I don't think he'll dominate. He should be entertaining to watch at least, hopefully he scores plenty of goals, just not against Melbourne!
