At long last Kieron Dyer's injury problems are no longer Newcastle United's concern, and we heard the same news from Upton Park that we've heard time and time again in the past. He's keeping "positive".
The West Ham midfielder is focused on making a full recovery from a double fracture to his leg, an injury he suffered after only three games for the Hammers.
He is expected to be out for six months but Dyer is aiming to be back in the West Ham team 'sooner rather than later'.
Dyer: "I have been passed so many messages that the fans have been sending in.
"Nearly every member of the squad came to see me and a lot of the staff as well.
"That was brilliant and really gave me a lift, considering I have only been at Upton Park a short space of time.
"I have been trying to stay as positive as I can. The physios and my specialist were really pleased with how the operation went and said there is no reason why I shouldn't make a full recovery.
"I'm focusing on that for now and getting some rest before I begin my rehab shortly.
"They don't give exact timescales with this type of injury because some people heal a lot quicker than others. Also, there can be complications when you have screws put in, so you have to play it by ear really.
"But I am just staying positive and focusing on being back and playing for West Ham sooner rather than later."
