    Alvarez had surgery on his ankle in February and could be back for Fenerbahce at the beginning of April according to Mexican FA official Duilio Davino (ESPN). He's currently with the Mexican squad for their friendlies (he's captain)

    Turksih website haberler.com say Fenerbahce have decided not to take up the £19m option to buy so he'll be coming back

    Fullkrug started AC Milan's win over Torino but was subbed after 70 minutes without scoring, bringing his total appearances to 14

    Italian journo Andrea Longoni (goal.com/) says that Milan have also decided not to take up the option so he's another one coming back

    Cornet is injured again, possibly splinters in the backside as he's not got off the Genoa bench for the last 5 games. Just 7 appearances, one start back in October

    5 million Euros for a German international striker what a bargain.

    1 goal in 15 for them, I think it is now.

    Or to look at it another way I believe its 14 goals in 24 international matches. He won't be the first striker who we haven't played to his strengths (Haller, Scamacca). It would be interesting to see how he would do getting on the end of some of Diouf's crosses.

    I thought that Scamacca was pretty decent after watching his goals for us.

    Said at the time it was a bad signing, you don't drop 30m on a 31 year old with previous history of ACL damage. Absolute madness of a signing. The club didn't learn from the Haller and Scamacca signings, 6 ft 6 signings with zero pace does not work in the PL for us.

    1 in 16, came on at half time when AC were losing 2-0 at home to Udinese, managed one shot on goal, ended 3-0

    He's only started 3 times but they've got Pulisic, Nkunku (£36m in the summer) and Leao (Chelsea and Barcelona both sniffing around, €50) so he was never going to get much game time

    Nuno knew what we needed, a Tatty. he might lack top end ability like Summerville or Bowen, but boy will he run for you and treat every minute on the pitch like his last on this earth.

    I don't understand this idea that Taty lacks top end ability. I think he's a very skilful player who's rapidly getting used to the PL. Pablo's the one I'm not sure of.
  • alderzalderz
    I love Pablo. He works so hard, and I think him being on the pitch makes us better, despite the fact he doesn't seem to do much other than run around.

    That assist for Taty's first was both excellent and unnecessarily flash.

    Matt Kemp at C&H reckons Alvarez could be heading back to Ajax although no links to support that.

    Good if true but that still leaves Ward-Prowse, Fullkrug and Cornet in the "bomb squad".

    Various sources linking us with Rennes' French U21 CM Djaoui Cisse who we supposedly tried to sign in the summer for €25 (£21m) although he's also linked with Leeds and Arsenal

    That’s a surprising turn of events.

    If true.

    I love Mavro but If I look objectively his upturn in form has come since Disasi arrived. It would be hard to think Mavro has suddenly aquired a whole new level at 28. The likelIhood is he really fits working with Disasi, and so if a good offer came I could see why we may take it, especially if it helped us buy Disasi.

    I would like Mavro to stay but I don't really expect him to hold this current form as its very different to what has been seen since he first arrived.

    Ex says
    “West Ham are readying a new deal for Mavropanos following his personally impressive season. The club feel he’s now stepping up into a more senior role within the squad under Nuno, and it’s felt he deserves to be rewarded now as a higher profile player.”
