The Unsung Hero
Mathew Upson’s contribution to Wednesday evenings England game against Belarus was nothing short of fantastic.
Upson was called the unsung hero by football pundits last night after making it Virtually impossible for the Belarus strikers to score, only once was the back-line breached when Pavel Sitko scored to level the game.
Terry Venables has great admiration for Upson and told Setanta Sports:
“I’m very pleased with Upson, It was a really difficult game to come into. These can be difficult games and Upson did well”
Recent rumours about a fire sale at West Ham in January predicting Upson to move to Spurs for a unrealistic sum of £5m are unfounded and has many Hammers fans finding some humour in what has been a stressful month.
