There isn't much there

I'd forgotten about Fernandes.

alderz

So had I, apparently

MrsGrey

;ok I saw something yesterday that reminded me, and couldn't recall if he'd been factored in to these recent discussions.

PrestonHammer

I wouldn't worry Mrs. Grey, I'm pretty sure he won't hold it against you.

How about a bid for Cho Hyun-woo as backup keeper.

Fortuneseeker

Ki has joined Newcastle who are also willing to let Matt Ritchie leave if the price is right.

McHammer

Felony new deal at utd. Phew

I've particularly enjoyed (which is to say, sneered at) suggestions that, as a result, ManUre are no longer after Arnie.

'Cos they play the same position, innit?

McHammer

West Ham are in talks with Inter Milan over signing 31-year-old Italian winger Antonio Candreva. (TuttoMercatoWeb via Express)

Here's an indication of how ridiculous the transfer market is these days:

£10m for a 20 year old Championship player who's played less than a year of league football.

The sun saying our flop hugill going on loan maybe qpr for the season, think flop is unfair having played about 12 minutes

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

£9mil for 12 minutes of football

Dunno bout you but thats a flop for me

But i still dont trust the Sun

EXETERHAMMER

Hugill on loan makes sense. Not his fault he hasn't played.

Cuz1

At least play first then judge imo before he can be classed as a flop

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

But surely there is a reason he hasnt played....

sweepy23

Maybe we never spent £9m. Maybe it was another savio (I think that was his name)

MIAHammer

Not his fault that we bought him and then discovered Arnoutovich was a striker.

Or maybe he was bought as a bench filler in which case he achieved the goal and therefore can’t be considered a flop ;puzzled

Yes he was probably a sully buy and moyes didn’t rate him but either way hardly fair to say he’s been a flop after 12 minutes game time and if so our scouting network really was poor

grey_til_I_dye

He was brought in as 4th striker, to replace Sakho, and in case AC didn't recover.

Moyes had Arnie as a starter, Chicarito on the bench, and latterly AC, so Huggy's chances were always going to be limited.

I have no idea how good he is or isn't, but certainly don't see how he can be called a flop.

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

Because we spent £9mil and he didnt play

And now we are (apparantly) sending him off on loan less than 6 months after we bought him

IronHerb

West Ham are a flop maybe, not Hugill. We'll get most, if not all, our money back anyway.
