If there's one thing he has over Garcia, that is his dribbling skills.

I repeatedly said the same to Duncan Manterfield, but he never paid any attention.

He'll be cutting them 1.44 inches short.

This is an Everton-type signing!!! Notice how the Mancs, Chelski and the Arse were really chasing Ben - not!!

Benyoun's a decent buy at £4m, its hard to argue with it really. He's a tricky player with good premier league experience who wanted to come & play for us.

The only issue is that we are still short of a real class performer on either wing. Yossi is decent but no more than that, he's at a similar level to Pennant. Good squad players but against top notch opposition away from home can they be a match winner a la Ronaldo or Robben. The truth is probably not. If either Pennant or Yossi was backup to a top notch player then great but hand on heart they have it all to prove to show they are a player worthy of a starting place in a championship challenging side.

Got nothing whatsoever against Benni, seems like a nice guy.

I have to question this purchase though. If he was free, then fair enough. But to pay £4m for a squad player just doesn't make any sense. I would have put that money to better use getting a top notch quality winger in.

I was hoping that we weren't gonna make squad purchases any more.

Have to admit, £4m is better than the £6m i feared, so that's a positive.

I still dont think we really need him, not sure what he can offer that we really need. Agree, if he was a Bosman, then great, no problem. But we've missed out on top players in the past few years for the sake of a couple of million...so spending £4m on a player we dont really need (imo) isnt what i'd have done.

Lost some posts from this thread, lets keep it about our new signing rather than internet personalities.

And lets watch the religious references too, nothing to do with anything and not welcome in this thread thanks.
