    ;lol how short is David Gold?

    I want to see Sullivan stand next to Kouyate now.
  • SuzanneClaretSuzanneClaret

    From his Twitter: "David Gold ‏@davidgold 2h2 hours ago
    Cheikhou Kouyate who has just signed a new five year contract stands head and shoulders above most other players! dg"

    We have almost all our key players on long term deals now:

    Adrian (2017)

    Byram (2020)___ Tonka (2020)___Ginge (2018) ___ Reido (2021) ______ Ogbonnna (2019) ___ Cresswell (2020 +2)

    Marky Mark (2021) ___ Kouyate (2021) ___ Obiang (2019)

    Payet (2021) ___ Valencia (2019) ___ Antonio (2019 +2)


    Sakho (2018) ___ Carroll (2019 +2) ___ Valencia (2019)

    Would be nice to see Adrian and Sakho given new/extended deals.

    Kouyate is 6ft 4 in.
  • SuzanneClaretSuzanneClaret
    And DG is 4ft 6 in.
  • OutcastLondonerOutcastLondoner
    What you can't tell from the picture is that DG is sitting on Sullivan's shoulders.

    What a signing he's been

    What a player

    Another great move by the chairmen tieing our best players to long deals

    We are not gonna be a selling club anymore, such an exciting time to be a west ham fan

    Fair play to the chairmen tbh. When they came in I thought they would be thrifty forever, but they aren't scared to spend when hey need to.

    Alderz.......

    I'll be honest I thought they'd be tighter on the old purse strings than they have been.....that being said when you're getting 99.7% of your seats sold (at our prices)....and all that lovely TV money plus sitting on 40,000+ ST money already for next season and that lovely corp box stuff as well......

    Then I supppse you can have a little flutter every now and then ;wink

    I think they're actually enjoying this football malarkey at the high stakes big boys end.

    Don't count your chickens - isn't Terence supposed to be involved in the club in some capacity? ;whistle

    Honorary life president?

    Just threw up a little bit there. ....sorry
  • MJ_IRONSMJ_IRONS
    Great interview with Kouyate, he really has a passion for our club and wants the best.
  • LukerzLukerz
    Very good news.

    Basically everybody is now signed up. Would expect Adrian to be the next to sign a long-term deal. I would say Sakho too but have to be careful handing out deals to players that don't play much.

    Apparently we've signed Lanzini too, on a deal until 2021 (just hasn't been officially announced yet).
  • KingHammerAbroadKingHammerAbroad
    Delighted with Kouyate signing the extension.

    The Dave's have really backed us and deserve a lot of credit for the position we're in now. Exciting times ahead if we can finish the season strong, combined with the move to the OS it will give us even more pulling power for top players.

    Lanzini now added to this. Love it.

    Sakho, Adrian extended and a couple of signings and we're looking in very, very good shape.
  • MunichHammerMunichHammer
    Didn't Sakho only sign an extended contract last season? No need to give him a new contract every 2 games or so. But I agree, it is really good we are putting all our talent on long term contracts.
  • eskimokingeskimoking
    Munich, if that's the case then you're right, it's too soon. If he has a good run til the end of the season and the start of next, I'd look at it around December-Feb. I don't like when it gets close to a year left.
