2026 Summer Transfer Speculation
The issue with Diouf is he is clearly currently best suited to a WB role, which we don’t play. We need a proper LB, good defensively, capable going forward. So is it better to cash in on a player not suited to our system (but would work for Brentford who play a back 3/5), & use the money to buy a LB that can work better in a flat back four? Possibly. Potter bought him to use as a WB, he trialed pre-season with Aguerd, Kilman, Todibo as our back three & Diouf was a LWB. Nuno changed that.
One of the big issues last year was Diouf was playing as a LB in a back four, & was exploited defensively. I don’t think he has the ability to play as a natural LB at the moment. -

Sunday's game (as well as being my birthday) marks 60 years as a Hammer. Probably explains why I'm crazy 🤪 😜

I'm sure it was reported that around two weeks ago that Disasi wanted a week to two weeks to make a decision about us.
Tick tock. -

Brentford will make a bid of around £40m for Diouf, according to Ex & talkSPORT. I imagine that will be accepted.
If they bid that kind of fee, I'd personally grab it..... -

This now gives us a balanced side to put out against Burnley, which is good
I think he’s another smart, clever signing, to go along with Veltman, & at £5m it is a sensible bit of business & likely a bargain -

2026 Summer Transfer Speculation
Why was it always going to be a shockingly bad buy. He was Germany’s striker and had been banging in goals in the Euros.
Trouble has always been we don’t know how to use strikers. We had Haller, Scamacca and Fullkrug and turned them into bad buys. -

If only we had 110,000 miles out of Fulkrug, he spent most of his time in the garage.
