    Nolito would be a steal, Betis aren't a big club or a particularly good one (14th in la liga)so i'm sure we can tempt him

    Think he was frozen out by pep, many players have, but he previously hit double figures in his previous 3 seasons on Spain and started life at City pretty well

    His goal haul of 4 this season would still set him in our top 5 goalscorers, and he has played 500 minutes LESS than Andy Carroll and Ayew who only have 7 and 5 respectively

    He's also a left winger who'll allow Lanzini to play more centrally as we don't really have a left winger atm (Ayew prefers being central, Antonio, Feg and Snodgrass all prefer the right)

    No way will Carroll be swapped with Sturridge
  • alderzalderz
    bbb

    Given his injury record, Klopp's style of play, the fact he flopped there once already, and the fact that Sturridge fits them a lot more style wise, I don't see it at all

    Is this not an admission of tapping up by Klopp ;hmm

    ;hmm Depends if they went through the clubs?

    A bit left field but how about a bid for Marko Arnautovic? I reckon he would be perfect for left side of a three.
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    good player but I think he has bigger ambitions than us and Stoke. Seems like someone who wants to be in a "European" playing time, so cant see him joining us even if Stoke decided they wanted to sell which I don't think they would.

    Aeronautic signed a new 4-year deal in the summer. If he'd wanted to leave Stoke he could have gone to Everton who were offering £12.5m or he could have let his old contract run out this summer and gone on a free.

    Pickford available.

    For £30m.

    Perhaps not then...

    Pickford will be available for less in a couple of seasons when he makes a couple of mistakes and the press decide he's awful, after hyping him up.

    Like Butland? ;hmm

    West Ham forward Andre Ayew, 27, could quit the Premier League club to rejoin former side Marseille, despite only signing from Swansea last summer - according to his father, Abedi Pele. (Le Parisien - in French)

    Everton are willing to sell Republic of Ireland midfielder James McCarthy for £20m to offset their summer spending, with Newcastle, West Ham and Crystal Palace interested in the 26-year-old. (Mail on Sunday)

    West Ham boss Slaven Bilic is targeting a top-six finish next season - with a return to the Premier League top 10 a minimum ambition. (Evening Standard)

    Would happily sell Ayew if we could get the sort of money we paid or near enough, but wouldn't want spend the fee on McCarthy as don't like him and not worth that sort of money. I don't mind keeping Ayew as I think he has ability and may come good but just as likely to be a nearly player as he has been this season, he has looked the part and provided brief moments of high quality, but it never really came to anything resembling a 20m signing.

    Il est possible qu'André (NDLR : Ayew, son fils, aujourd'hui à West Ham) revienne à l'OM un jour. C'est un enfant du club, formé à Marseille.
    For me, that is 'he might do, one day', rather than a current possibility.
  • ASLEFshruggedASLEFshrugged
    McCarthy is another sicknote, not as good as Kouyate, Obiang or even Noble and not worth anywhere near £20m. A poor man's Jack Wilshire.

    I wouldn't be bothered if Ayew went but as Grey points out that's not what Abedi Pele said

    Bats has scored two today, which is his fourth goal in three games.

    Going nowhere now I'd say.
  • BazshuayiBazshuayi
    just about to type the same thing ;hmm
  • EXETERHAMMEREXETERHAMMER
    How about a sneaky bid for Harry Kane ;biggrin
  • BazshuayiBazshuayi
    If Conte had kept him on the bench the last few games Bats would be ;wave Now even if he's sold it'll be hard for us to be the ones who get him.

    At least Iheanacho stayed goalless ;biggrin
