Hennessey wants Murray competition

Wed, 20 May 11:44:09 2009

Wolves goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey cannot wait for team-mate Matt Murray to return to fitness and challenge him for the number one spot at Molineux.

Murray been beset by injuries for the last two years and is currently battling his way back from surgery to repair a ruptured patella tendon suffered while on loan at Hereford - where he was sent to build up fitness following a long-term knee problem.

And with the former England Under-21 international targeting a return in time for Wolves' foray into the Premier League next season Hennessey, who has worn the number one jersey for most of Murray's absence, is looking forward to the competition.

"I want Matty to get back so we're all challenging for a place," he told the club's official website.

"He is a Premier League goalkeeper and will want to get back there again. I want him back fit and training with us again."

  1. xs. it took you 5 days to think of that! not saying­ hennessey is bad, he is a good keeper but we need­ someone else with a little more top flight experiance­ than what he has, also murray is also a good keeper but­ has yet to play top flight football. so my point being­ is we need a better keeper because we outscored the­ entire league last season but let in a few more than we­ should have done! so we are not bickering like little­ girls, just puting our point accross

  2. Gentlemen please, your team won't get anywhere in­ the prem with fans that bicker like little girls. Got­ that pal? Also as a neutral (and genuine supporter of­ the greatest team in world football) I have to say that­ Hennessey is awesome, he has played well in­ international games and has a bright future ahead of­ him. I'm not being funny, but you wouldn't have­ won the championship without him. So don't slag him­ off now, coz there are only a few good keepers full­ stop - try naming more than 8 top class keepers in­ England. VDS, Cech, Reina, Almunia, Schwarzer and­ Jaaskelainen..... I'm done already! (and not one of­ them is British)
