It's through !!
Very pleased with this, we only pay $3.6 million upfront, and if he plays over 75 senior apperances Pompey get the rest of the $7.6 transfer fee.
Will start on Saturday.

Great news for us but why did Pompey let him go?

To buy Jermain Defoe, a young replacement for Benjani?
Benjani looks as though he'll make his debut appearance for the Derby match, what an induction. :D
Can someone start the Derby thread, I started the Arsenal thread and we lost! ;)

Wow. This is craziness. Benjani is in 3rd place for top goalscorers and I honestly think our forward problem is beginning to really look up. We have been entirely dependent on our midfield and defense while continuing to contend for a European place and I think Benjani might actually be a key to help us break through to the 4th place spot (which would be amazing, considering we were 14th only about 9 months ago.)
I have to say kudos to Sven, this was a class signing and I know it.
Hopefully we can keep a perfect derby record this season so I and all the other faithful citizens can rub it in ManU's fat, ugly face.
I pray to the football gods to watch over Benjani in this game, and pray to come away with a win (I will have a very very good week if it happens).
This is exciting.
