Agree with the majority of what has been said, including comments on his defensive duties.
The first quarter of an hour or so Villa got most joy from their right wing and they should have scored when he and another City player got in each others way.
I have to say that from then onwards he was excellent, got stuck right into Agbonlahor (who seems to have doubled in size in the last few years).

Bennett deserves his place in the team perhaps could develop into LHS midfield? He looks a real find
