  • He also played LB for the national side when younger. He's pretty experienced compared to his age

    #wouldnt say no
  • Oh and another ;weep for Bats
  • Sky Sports saying West Ham looking to hijack Stokes permanent move for Bruno Martins Indi who was on loan from Porto to Stoke.

    Surely not?

    Reid, Oggy, Fonte, Collins, Burke?
  • Lukaku to Man U for £75m!!!!!

    Cripes......
  • so Lukaku goes to man u we never beat them anyway .only way Everton can beat us is with him .so now we take at lest 4 more points from them so win win me thinks ;biggrin

    Well, Lukaku to Man Utd, so I guess our chances of getting Batshuayi have plummeted.

    Did not see that coming.

    Ok, so Bats is almost certainly out of the equation then.
  • 75m for Evertons best player
    25m for West Hams best player in the Jan window

    Granted a lot of different factors on why Payet was sold at a lower price. But its pretty damn bad reading lol.

    Burke will go on loan, I'm sure. Fonte and Collins have a combined age of about 90 so may not be the most reliable, fitness-wise. And both Reid and Oggy have had their injury problems, so I can see us going in for another CB.

    But not until we've got our striker situation sorted.
  • Looks Like Lukaku is certainly off, which can have a knock on effect for us and other clubs below Everton....

    I am wondering that it may end up being Man Utd...

    ITK ;whistle
  • Good news...

    Is he starter? Do we fit in him in with MN and CK or is it 1 from the 3 to be on the bench.

    I've thought on occasions it would be good to give CK a bit of a free role, let him terrorise whoever he sees fit during a game because his got the best engine.

    MN PO
    CK
    RW ST LW

    Something like that.

    Payet was 29 when we sold him, Lukaku is 24. Barring injury or loss of form he's going to be Man U's first choice striker into the 2020s.

    Plus Lukaku has been among the top Premier League strikers for the last five seasons, Payet was only here for a season and a bit.
  • Fonte and Collins have a combined age of about 90 so may not be the most reliable, fitness-wise.

    Both are 33. Are you Diane Abbott?
  • I think we need 4 new defenders, 4 new midfielders, and two new strikers
    and perhaps a new goalkeeper.
  • Well, then, you'll be disappointed in our summer transfer business, I'll wager!

  • Only if you think he doesn't make everything up ;whistle
  • I note that article also claims Giroud has given us the brush off.
  • Something doesn't feel right about this. If it's true, then the board have basically agreed a deal with City and Iheanacho without consulting the manager. The same manager that has said that he and the board are always talking about transfer targets.

    Can't see it myself.

    Which means C&H is just stirring the proverbial to turn people against the manager ;hmm
  • Running out of options if true
  • Was it ever on though? If the terms of the deal were as reported we are quite right to give it a wide berth - basically a loan with all the downside risk falling on us
  • West Ham Twitter has gone into meltdown again. Knives are really out for Bilic.

    So much negativity around the club and we're nowhere near our heavy defeat to Man U yet.

    Not necessarily, OCS.

    It could be interpreted as Bilic was OK with it in principle... but not the final deal? Maybe once Sully negotiated the agreement acceptable to the player and City, he put it to the manager for a final approval and Bilic said no, not on those terms? Perhaps because the amount City want would mean there was less left in our budget to buy the quality of striker Bilic wanted (ie 'proven') so wasn't willing to give the ;ok to the Iheanacho deal. He didn't want to rely on that player as our 'main' new striker buy?
  • 30th August = doom and gloom + relegation fears

    31st August = Diego Costs (loan to Jan 18) = party time

    #ITK
  • Possibly Mrs G.

    But they'd better be confident of securing some of their other targets because we can only imagine the fall out if we have a repeat of last summer.
  • West Ham Twitter has gone into meltdown again. Knives are really out for Bilic.

    So much negativity around the club and we're nowhere near our heavy defeat to Man U yet.

    This is why I despise ITKs.

    1. Twit puts unsubstantiated information out.
    2. Said player signs for another club or Twit puts out a second unsubstantiated story saying club are no longer interested.
    3. Morons abuse the club/owners/manager for not signing player.

    And then repeat.
  • As an intelligent, sane man I had set my heart on Bats and Iheanacho coming to us ( Or at least one of them).

    As normal me... ;wahoo ;angry ;weep

    I find it difficult to believe that Bilic would veto Iheanacho

    But then again, I find it difficult to believe that Veto Vito Corleone would be able to spell Iheanacho.

    So where are we again?

    I want Iheanacho!!

    I want a sexy manager too!!

    #Bats too painful to type about ;weep


  • Either way it's one extreme to another
    Last year owners where on the TV every
    Other week or the radio this time no signings and nothing from them it beggars
    Believe how much rubbish we put up with
    Not happy players going out nothing coming in I think we have lost the plot .
