So we don’t need a striker??

No, the only way we get a striker in is if they put Cenk to backup... they won't buy a back up striker when we have Niasse, DCL and Walcott/Richarlison being able to play there.

..apparently a bright lad, studying a law degree. Mind you, Matthew Pennington is a straight A student.

Rooney had a Doctorate too, sure of it, Anthropology with thesis in Geriatrics

..oh dear.

Think it was more like old dear !!

..absolutely. The report says €10m down with €10m in add-ons.

How can we ever succeed when you have got clubs like Villa coming late to the negotiation party and putting in offers that blow anyone else away? lol

...They do realise we have put a £25M bid in don't they? Must be a hoax surely.

Without any judgement on quality, I figure we have quite a few strikers - Tosun, Niasse, Richarlison, Walcott, DCL - even Lookman and Mirallas at a push. Maybe if we moved 1 out we might get one in.

Centre-backs though, Holgate.....Keane....Jags, Williams (out ?)....Besic (out ?)...Pennington (out) It's not looking good.

So we don’t need a striker??

Not until we build a team who can supply a striker. Otherwise its just wasting money.

I get the “why weren’t we in for them” shouts from people every time West Ham/Leicester/Wolves sign a player, but they need to understand Brands has historically created and cultivated an identity which these players may not fit.

West Ham have sprayed money up the wall on a group of random players on huge wages and they will get burnt for that, I have no fear.

We will get the players we need in and make something we can build on.

 

[Professor Toffee]

..nope. Italian outlet Corriere Dello Sport because Cagliari have been interested in him for a while.

He reminds me of Alcaraz, except he’s a bit of a dog.

escape from Alcaraz, every forward did

Apparently Pulis wants Besic.

now that's a match made in Heaven.

Not sure how I feel about that, in regards Vlasic.

Talented lad, definitely has something about him. I don't think we should be freezing him out. Poor from Silva (if it's just about a move away from the club).

Must be a bad attitude?
