    Two days before he signed. Before the media got whiff of it tbf.

    But he got the date of the medical wrong, which he said was Thursday, when it was Friday. ;biggrin

    He and Payet would make a great MF pairing ( Puncheon Judas ) ;run ;yercoat

    With Feghouli staying we've got him, Antonio, Lanzini and Fernandes who can play wide with Sakho and Ayew coming back from injury at some point soon. Now that Calleri's scored if he stays then we've got him, Carroll and Fletcher up front with again the injured pair available soon.

    We've got 16 games left, 12 points clear of relegation, 15pts short of Europe, since we've removed Sulky McSulkface from the equation we're playing like we did last season.

    I certainly wouldn't bother with Snodgrass (who feels a bit "Downing" to me), I'm not much fussed about Hogan (a bit "Maynard"), I'd be perfectly happy to see the season out with the team we have.

    ASLEF - there is an argument to do that, I agree. ;ok

    Out form since we drew with LFC has been top 6 form and it's basically pulled us out of danger completely.

    Suppose it depends what our aim is for the rest of the season. If we want to target 7th (same position as last season) we need a couple more players this month.

    Lukerz - after the season we've had so far I'd be perfectly happy with anywhere in the top ten.

    Wait until the summer then maybe see if Sigurdsson is available

    But I thought Ex said it weeks before and then confirmed it on Wednesday.

    Daily Mail online 11 January, 9 days before he signed: West Ham have posted and interest in Fonte? ;hmm

    As in stated everything was agreed and a medical due.

    Not just a general 'interest'.

    And seeing as you normally discredit paper rumours, that article is void. ;biggrin

    Apparently Watford have had a bid accepted for Hogan. On twitter.

    From DS on the OS today.

    "I hope, with further new signings, which we hope to make between now and the end of the transfer window."
  • SuzanneClaretSuzanneClaret
    Two hopes.

    Is that Bob and No.

    You are doing it again!

    Stop it! If you carry on, I may be forced to deploy my Weapons of Kitchen Destruction.

    Was any kind of conclusion reached?
  • OldCastleSwiftOldCastleSwift
    Anyone else starting to think we're not going to sign a striker? ;hmm

    Carroll firing, Antonio playing alongside him at the moment, Calleri and Fletcher on the bench.

    I get a feeling the club are thinking that will do for now, hence the Hogan dallying.
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    Sakho's return date listed as 4 Match - in effect, that's 4 more games.
  • FortuneseekerFortuneseeker
    We started this season with Andy C, Enner, Diafra, Fletch, Zaza & Calleri as our strikers, so we are two down on that number at the moment. Do we need a replacement for Zaza and will Valencia come back?
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    I think Enner's is season-long. Or did you mean come back at the end of the season?
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    Enner zaza calleri sakho move all of them on. Bring in 2 strikers and then get fletcher and martinez time

    That would be the cheaper option... So probably not a bad shout ;ok
