Seriously don’t think we have much to worry about from West Ham. Other than Diop they have spent money on names much like we did last year. As good as Yarmelenko was a few seasons ago by all accounts he has lost a yard of pace after injury and think he has ended up at West Ham for a payday. They have just spent 42 million on a Brazilian who is average and unlike our average 45 million man isn’t even a set piece threat. Fully expect West Ham to finish 9-10 and Pellegrini to be binned by this time next summer.
On to Everton, we will be 7-8, possibly even 6th because I still don’t think Arsenal have sorted there main problems out. Fully expect another 5/6 out before the season starts and 3-4 in. I am frustrated that we haven’t brought anyone in but I’m not ready to get the nappies out in case of bedwetting yet. We really have put ourselves in a hole in terms of the ridiculous wages we put the likes of Bolasie Williams and Klassen on (Sandro I can understand based on his low fee) and we will do well to rid ourselves of the dross within the next two windows.
There are too many players stealing a massive wage and by the sounds of it Silva and Brands know exactly who they want out and who they think they may get a tune (temporarily or not) out of.
A more streamlined squad utilising some of our undoubted youth quality, a couple of astute signings and with a manager who doesn’t think that tactics are a type of mint and I am feeling quietly confident that we will have an enjoyable season where we can see progress on the field.
