Henri and Gary Make Comebacks

December 6, 2011 By Iron Bobby Leave a Comment

Good news for Sam Allardyce today as both Henri Lansbury and Gary O’Neil made appearances for West Hams development squad.

The match ended 3-0 against Brentford, with Big Sam watching the match hoping the mid-fielders would soon be back featuring for the first team.

Ian Hendon spoke to WHUTV:

“Henri has been training really well and his quality is there for all to see,” Hendon told West Ham TV. “As soon as he is back ready and fit, which I think he is now, it will be a bonus for the gaffer come Saturday afternoons.

“Gary is a bit stiff and tired at the moment but he’s come through. He’s worked his socks off to get back to fitness and will continue to do so. It was a nice step for him to get out on the pitch and one of the goals came from him hitting a shot and we followed it in.”

Good news as we could do with some more competition in the middle of the park.

Lansbury Helps England Win

October 6, 2011 By Iron Bobby Leave a Comment

Henri Lansbury lined up for England as they won 3-0 in Iceland today to make it two wins from two in UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifying.

The Reykjavik contest was the second qualifier in the bid to reach the 2013 finals in Israel, with Lansbury having scored two and made two in the first, a 6-0 defeat of Azerbaijan last month. He also registered four days later in a 4-1 friendly win against the Israelis.

Arsenal winger Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was the hero for Stuart Pearce’s Young Lions this time, scoring all three goals. The England squad will now travel to Drammen to take on Norway on Monday night in their third qualifying match of the campaign.

Good to see him putting in some good performances for England U21’s. Lets hope that form transfers to West Ham as you can never have enough good midfielder’s!
