Fair play to the guy and good luck to him. By all accounts he's put the hours in on the training ground and is getting his just rewards, regular first team football and an international call up.
Ryan Nelsen is randomly back in the news after hackers unearthed that he was one of the players given a Thereputic Use Exemption at the 2010 World Cup, in his case he was cleared to use prednisone. Other players at the tournament given TUEs for otherwise banned substances include Carlos Tevez, Juan Sebastian Veron, Dirk Kuyt and Mario Gomez
Sebastian Bassong is set to be reunited with Harry at brum. He has been training with the team since being released by Norwich last season, and Redknapp is prepared to offer him a short term contract, saying: "he's a triffic lad".
He was great in his first season with us in 09/10 and we finished 4th. Redknapp got the best out of him then. Memorable debut, too:
Ah, Jamie Carragher. What a fine servant of our club he was. That celebration at the end...Ledley, Benny, Niko, Hudd, Lennon, Defoe...so much love in one frame
Dorian Dervitte, who a decade ago fulfilled the GKN role of the player we all thought we imagined but turned out to be real, scored for Bolton last night.

Ahhh...so buying players to strengthen the squad is a kick in the teeth to current players, but not buying players is being tight fisted. Letting players go makes us a selling club but refusing to sell players is wrong. Not enough s
Good luck to Wimmer. Got little game time and never publicly moaned. Did a good job for us most of the time, then lost favour completely and barely got a sniff. I hope Son's not too disappointed.
