Foden on loan now the dirty rat. Pep might send him to L4 as penance!

(Clearly I know this is folly just adding fuel to the fire about loaning him. As if it was ever going to happen)

I should also add, and I don't mean to detract from what has been poor recruitment- but we are not the only ones with this problem.

Liverpool wated to move on Karius, Origi, Shaqiri, Wilson, Grujic and others for decent money this window. None of them have gone thus far. The plan was to do the same with Lallana and Wijnaldum. They're haggling over a 15m for the latter (10m less than they paid) and had to eventually let Lallana see his contract out, after establishing there was no point in renewing his contract another year for a fee as it wouldnt have been coming. Even Lovren they had felt they'd get 30 for, they had to make do with 10, with a large amount based on bonuses and a hefty payment to an agend as well (the guarenteed money is probabaly around 2-3m after that, with some add ons).

They are widely (and in my view rightly) considered one of the well run clubs.

I spoke to a lot of West Ham fans in the summer, and tmheir view was everyone was for sale bar Rice. The problem is, nobody really wants any of their players accept for Rice. It's easy everyone putting their garbage up for sale, but because of the wages there are very little takers. They probably thought someone would come in and pay for Lanzini maybe 20 for Anderson, but you put the wages in too and people are ultimately just going to go down the loan route and probably just pay a portion of the wage. This is why the young lad they've just sold had to go, as West Brom would at least pay a proper fee.

So there's a much wider issue at play here, and yes we have problems too.

i'd probably take a punt on anderson for £20m tbh, took the league by storm originally, probably realised he was way too good for them. anyway, let's not go down the route of stocking too many players in one position again ha

I really hope we try to sign Thomas Lemar, a left footed winger, World Cup winner. Was linked to us a few days ago. IMO a much more interesting option that Zaha. A loan with an option/obligation to buy would be ideal.

People complaining about Zaha’s numbers then wanting us to sign someone with less goal contributions than iwobi
 
If Buendia still hasn’t move in a couple of weeks. Perfect for our right hand side if they’re still after a winger
 

Is it just me or is the whole thing with Doucoure and Janes having been on Merseyside since last week without us actually signing them just bonkers?
Has something like this happened before?
