West Ham United defender Matthew Upson has reflected on what it means to wear the club's legendary No6 shirt.

With next Sunday marking 15 years to the day that club legend Bobby Moore passed away, Upson has revealed what it means to him to have the shirt.

"It's a big honour," he told the West Ham matchday programme. "Sometimes I do sit at home and think about it and I get a little buzz because it's a big honour. I didn't actually specifically ask for it. I was given it and it's a real honour to wear that shirt."

He added: "It's only just beginning at West Ham. I want to give some very good years in my career to West Ham and I feel I am coming into my prime."
