West Ham manager Slaven Bilic has identified Kevin Mirallas and Aaron Lennon as possible replacements for Stewart Downing following the winger’s £5.5million move to Middlesbrough last week.

Everton have reportedly already rejected a £6m bid from West Ham for Mirallas while Tottenham’s Lennon could be another option.

The 28-year-old Leeds-born winger has one year remaining on his contract at White Hart Lane and was on loan at Everton for the second half of last season.

West Ham are just here to steal our targets and players.
 

Interesting listening to Greame Beacroft on talksport this morning, he said that the chairman was going to come under server pressure unless Martinez is given money to buy 2 or 3 quality additions.

First time I've heard a local journo, talk in that way.

10 minutes later the Mirror Nonce John Cross spout the usual garbage about how we have a great chairman who cares for and has loyalty to the fans more than any other aspect of the club. Whilst that image of the club to fan relationship portrayed we will go nowhere. To be fair to Alan Brazil he for the past few weeks has been making constant references to our lack of business.

Beacroft also said without additions soon we will do well to get top ten never mind anything else. Maybe the tide of honesty is turning.

We're going to get DDOS'd?
 
Sergi Roberto looks a proper CM and not the left sided playmaker we are led to believe we are after, and we been linked with him for ages.
A possible explanation , also coinciding with rumoured McCarthy unrest. I believe RM knew the score of our budget from the start, and had decided early on that he needed to cash in on one of the big assets we have to push us forward, and he has decided it is McCarthy, so many stories been leaked about him would support this. When Coleman interest came about , it was shot down very fast, seems we are trying to shoot down Stones interest, but McCarthy stories still persisting. So Sergi Roberto comes in as his replacement, and the Rest of the cash we get for McCarthy (along with 8m we seemed to have for a CB) put towards a Left sided playmaker and CB, and this would support Martinez saying there will be late deals, as the latter two would only happen after the Sergi Roberto purchase, hence later in window.

Only a theory, but given whats in the press it may well be possible
