Benitez outta here! Signs for Birmingham City!

Birmingham City have completed the club-record signing of the striker Christian Benítez. The Ecuadorian has joined from the Mexican club Santos Laguna for £7.7m after personal terms were agreed last month.

"I am really happy to have signed for Birmingham City and am looking forward to playing for the Blues," said Benítez, who is the son of one of Ecuador's all-time leading goalscorers, Ermen Benítez.

"I think it is the right time for Christian Benítez to take on the challenge of the Premier League and I will be giving everything to score as many goals as possible and share in good times with this club."

Benítez is waiting for a work permit but Birmingham are confident that it will be a formality, as he has played the required number of games for his national team.

Benítez impressed for Ecuador at the 2006 World Cup in Germany and scored 31 goals in 58 games in the Mexican league over the last two seasons.

Anyway, like an ex-girlfriend's cleavage, it's probably the last we'll see of these two tits.

Would have worked if we all didn't know Christian Benitez was signing for Brum.

I think there's been been three threads on this. The second started by a mod. Very naughty.

"My coach told me to warm up just before the break. He told me I was going to take care of Kaka. I didn't think it was possible to turn things around but in the dressing room at halftime Rafa Benitez was calm - "We are Liverpool FC, we have so many fans, we are not going to be slaughtered. If we can score a goal quickly we push on from there.""

Referring to himself in the third person, poor form.

I could have worked harder on the subject screamer.

I'm thinking that "Benitez in Brum Shock Move" would have worked better...
