    I think this a rehashed story but....

    So just me posting today....

    This seems about right.

    Barcelona are apparently lining up a £135m move for Kante and Coutinho.

    Coutinho for £15m is a bargain.

    West Ham could submit a £30m bid for Arsenal and England midfielder Jack Wilshere, 25, who is on loan at Bournemouth. The Hammers are also interested in a loan deal for Chelsea and Belgium striker Michy Batshuayi, 23. (Evening Standard)

    The Hammers will also offer winger Michail Antonio, 27, a new £65,000-a-week deal to keep him at the club next season. (Sun)

    When I first saw the Wilshere story I sort of laughed and shook my head. Then I saw it in a different paper and thought (even though I dont believe the story for a second) yes, West Ham would at this moment have to pay 15 to 20 million over the odds to beat other teams to an injury prone English player ;doh

    #insert Sturridges name for Wilshere and reads same thing
  • BazshuayiBazshuayi
    p.s the game time theyre giving Batshuyai will most likely destroy all his confidence just in time for a move to the London Stadium ;doh again

    JW dad is a big WH fan according to Ray Parlour.

    Who's position would he take in our best 11?
  • VorselaarhammerVorselaarhammer
    I also see the Zabaleta story seems to have legs.

    Not sure if he does anymore however...

    I thought if you bought pre-broken stuff it was cheaper?

    If you bring back Kieron Dyer, you've got to bring back Lee Bowyer ;handbag ;handbag ;handbag

    That applies to everything (including biscuits which takes me back to my youth) apart from footballers who are English
  • LukerzLukerz
    Sky reporting that Antonio has rejected our contract offer. He wants to be one of the top earners.
  • WHU_Champo_league_in_7_yearsWHU_Champo_league_in_7_years
    He should be

    Since he broke into the first team he's always been a top 5 player in our team despite shoehorned into playing in every position

    It's between him and Obiang for me for HOTY and last year he was the only guy who was a threat to Payet winning HOTY

    Should be one of the biggest earners
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    Luke this morning Slav said "we will definitely be offering him a new contract in the near future" and by this afternoon sky report he's rejected. It all happens so fast.
    I hadn't realised by the head future Slav meant in the next 10 minutes or so.
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    It might have been a revised offer with Sky reporting what they read on the web.
  • LukerzLukerz
    Personally don't think he'll be here next season.
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    Where do you think he'll be?

    Halfway down Green Street, looking at the ground, pacing back and forth, muttering "Had it here, lost it here... had it here ... lost it here"
  • OldCastleSwiftOldCastleSwift
    Lukerz, it depends which league we're in. PL he stays, Champo, he's gone, IMO
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    Then he's going nowhere.
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    If we in the PL he's going nowhere, not good enough for a top 6 team and we pay some of the best wages outside the top 6.
  • McHammerMcHammer
    West Ham are prepared to make a £16m move for Liverpool midfielder Lazar Markovic, 23, who is currently on loan at Hull City. (Sun)

    However, the Hammers' talks with winger Michail Antonio, 27, have stalled after he rejected their first offer. (Sky Sports)

    Meanwhile West Ham are close to agreeing a £20m deal with communication giants Vodafone for naming rights to London Stadium. (Evening Standard)
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    McHammer West Ham are not close to agreeing anything. The naming rights are nothing to do with us.
  • McHammerMcHammer
    Twas the evening standard wot said it
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    Might have to put the speculation on hold till we know which league we are in.
  • BazshuayiBazshuayi
    Strangely enough, I think we should make lots (I mean lots!) of transfers in the Summer ;whistle ;wink ;biggrin ;run

    #Bazfers you know it makes sense
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    If we adopt that strategy, we'll end up with a negative points score at the end of it!
  • brookingsironsbrookingsirons
    we signed loads in summer and look at us now , we need 4 top quality players
    imo.
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    or 11
