Has anyone else managed to unravel this triple-negative? I think it means it will work out OK with Benteke...?! I hope this is right! I think the team as a whole is playing better than at the start of the season and this should help Benteke to get in better scoring positions

If it were a loan deal until the end of the season... Big yes

Supporters who have clung to this belief are in my opinion fast diminishing in numbers. We have all been a tad befuddled by the fact that Benteke has gone from a 15 goal striker in his first season to a player who has been hugely disappointing and we live more in hope than expectancy that he will return to the form that saw him hit the net with some regularity. There is a school of thought that Benteke has had ongoing issues with his knee for some time which have now been fixed and fixed properly.

He'd be a great signing if he wasn't permanently injured but then they wouldn't be looking to get rid if that was the case. I wonder if we could get a full season out of him, Benteke and Wickham combined?
We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold... |

Carrol is a top player but his injuries are a problem but even so he's not like a Wickham you will get games out of him even if it's only 15 a season. Well worth taking on loan but he is on 70+ thousand a week so we would have to get that to come down a bit.

Talking of injuries tabloid gossip is that Jack Wilshire has played his last game of the season. He has only played a handful of games for the Spam I think we dodged a bullet there.
One more point |

Without wanting to sound like Willo, I was speaking to one of the sports scientists at West Ham and he said it's not a case of he is injury prone in the sense he gets recurring hamstring injuries or anything like that. All his injuries are due to having odd joints in his body caused by the speed at which he grew as a teenager. It basically means that when he jumps his joints bend incorrectly when he lands which causes knee, groin and ankle injuries that are completely unrelated and impossible to negate. You could wrap him up in cotton wool but the likelihood is when he steps out on the pitch, he's likely to end up on the physio table. Obviously, he put it a lot more eloquently than me.
