it will affect his position in the team at the moment) after
they suspended him for his support of Patrick Anelka's

West Bromwich Albion man made the gesture. Benoit
himself said that he regards it as an anti-establishment

Meanwhile, over at UEFA headquarters, they take a dim view
of anti-Semitism (hopefully) and are investigating the

place in my heart. I hope the fans still love me even though
I’ve moved on" as a sure-fire sign he will return to the
