Home The SEVEN worst West Ham players in recent memory Benni McCarthy

Benni McCarthy

Benni McCarthy is the all-time South African record goalscorer and wreaked havoc in the Premier League with Blackburn. Therefore he arrived at West Ham with a lot of expectation after his deadline day signing in 2010. McCarthy proved to be a crocked flop who did not hit the back of the net for us in any competition before we eventually paid off £1.5m in a desperate attempt to get rid of him. He was once fined £200,000 for being overweight. McCarthy also called Karren Brady a ‘devil with a set of tits’ but West Ham’s vice chairman had the last laugh as she retorted ‘at least I’m meant to have tits’.
