Benjani set to rise to the challenge


Benjani is welcoming the prospect of new signings in the January transfer window.

The
striker, signed at the very end of January this year, has found a vein
of form since returning to the side from a serious thigh muscle inury
picked up during the summer but he's not worried about the possibility
of more competition for places.

"We all know that there will be new players coming into the club in January and I am absolutely looking forward to it," he says.

"If
you play amongst the best then it rubs off and people don't realise
your faults and if you play and train with good quality players then
you end up improving yourself.

"Bringing in new top-quality
players will add to the challenge and give the manager options. It will
be good for everyone - the players, the coaches and the supporters. I
welcome it and I am very happy here."

The 30-year-old Zimbabwean
scored within minutes of his return to action, against FC Twente last
month, and since then has shaken off competition from the likes of Jo,
Danny Sturridge and Ched Evans to regularly get the nod from Mark
Hughes.

"I am really happy the boss is showing such faith in me.
Being selected regularly means a lot to me and I will keep working hard
to make sure that doesn't change," he adds.
