Yossi Benayoun

[Hamilton 2,120]

Don't really care much about him coming back, not needed..

[OReillyD36 311]

He isn't exactly "fond" of Rafa. When he left Liverpool for here he was bad mouthing him at every chance he got, claiming he(Benitez) was his reason for leaving Liverpool. And like Hamilton said he's not really needed back.

Chelsea should let him come to gather his odds&ends & send him...anywhere.

Chelsea is looking for much better players than Yossi is, these days.

West Ham United can confirm that the loan of @YossiBenayoun15 has ended and he has returned to @chelseafc.

[DONI. 1,291]

Yossi Benayoun has completed his loan spell at West Ham United, and returns to Chelsea today (Thursday).

The midfielder, who has missed a large chunk of the campaign with a knee injury, had been receiving treatment at Cobham after appearing six times for the Hammers in the Barclays Premier League, his last outing coming on November 11.

So far in his Chelsea career, he has made 11 appearances, scoring once, and spent last season on loan with Arsenal, where he scored four times in 19 league games.

Forgot about this fellow.

sell him already.... but whose gonna by him???

[bushman 2,043]

Who would buy him ? Perhaps, some Israeli team might consider ?

Another bombastic buy by Chelsea is coming back to sit around & twirl his thumbs, I feel.

nice guy, always liked him hopefully he can find a club and stay injury free i've always thought he's a underrated talent.

I think we were paying at least half his wages when he was at West Ham. His contract expires at the end of the season so we might aswell use him as a squad player and extra body in our team. I'd rather him than buy someone completely unproven at an inflated rate like Taison.

For me the key to January is improving our squad in a cost effective manner then can take stock in the summer.

Yay! Another scouser reject to add to our bench.

Pretty much summed up everything wrong with Chelsea's transfer dealings a couple of years ago.

- At the end of his prime

- Expensive for a reserve

- Wages too high

- Didn't really fit the system

Did Benitez sign him when he was at Liverpool? Can see him featuring this season if so

Didn't he also sell him? Or was that Woy?

Just checked, Rafa bought him and he was sold a month after Rafa left, so the board/woy sold him.

I bet it's because he is Jewish. Racist bastards.

Yeah but I remember he had problems with Rafa. I remember him saying some stuff about Rafa when he first moved here.

For me, he isn't a Chelsea player and never was, as harsh as it may sound.
