Upson hails form of West Ham pair Green, Bridge

West Ham United skipper Matthew Upson hailed their England pair Robert Green and Wayne Bridge after their draw at Tottenham.

The duo drew deserved praise from captain Upson.

Upson told West Ham TV: "It was obvious that Wayne just needed games. He'd been out of the thick of it for quite a long time and had some injuries, so he was slow starting like you'd expect. He's got into his stride and he's showing just what a class player he is.

"Greeny made a couple of outstanding saves. His one from the free-kick - I don't know how he's got there. To get enough of a hand on the ball to divert it on to the bar was just fantastic."
