I didn't say he was bad. I said he isn't a top player, which is true. He's at the Birmingham City level if anything.

And yeah he's certainly had the money. I have a full lost somewhere (credit of someone else) of the players Benitez has bought/sold. Won't bore you with is (unless you really are curious) but it is quite staggering, if a tiny bit out of date.

West Ham have got Ben Haim on loan from Portsmouth now and apparently we're signing a young international who was impressive during the World Cup within the next few days.

Apparently it's New Zealand full back, Winston Reid who plays for some Danish club, cant help feeling kinda underwhelmed though he has been raved about. Arsenal were after him once and from what I've read, most of their supporters really rated him. Guess we'll just have to see how good he is and if he gets a chance in the first team, just really hope the're not buying him because the're planning on selling Upson and want him as a direct replacement.
 
West Ham win our first (and probably last) silver wear of the season, even if it was just the SBOBET cup and it was on penalties. Robert Green was in outstanding form, shame Capello's bowed weakly to the kneejerkers and dropped him from the squad for just one mistake.
