West Ham on Song

いやー、今季のハマーズ、これまでとはちょっと違いますね。
バルサから移籍した元アーセナルのこの男の影響が大きいでしょう!

What on earth is Alex Song doing at West Ham? OK, Song was not quite up to it at Barcelona but there is no shame in that and it is a surprise that bigger clubs did not show more interest in him once it became clear that he was available. But credit to West Ham for pulling that deal off. Song has been excellent since making his debut last month, comfortable on the ball and leading by example, and ran the midfield against Manchester City, going toe-to-toe with Yaya Touré and Fernando and coming out on top. He even had the audacity to pull a rabona out of the bag, which led to an opportunity for Stewart Downing in the second half. He is clearly enjoying playing again after two forgettable years in Spain.
