I am not going to be the first to moan about my beloved West Ham but it appears that the CHeikhou Kouyate deal which had been all virtually signed sealed and delivered and was just pending a medical has now gone belly up (and in true West Ham fashion we lose out on another potential signing that we've been drooling over for weeks)

"Cheikhou Kouyate to West Ham is unwinding and the chances of it happening are now around 25 per cent!
Rumours have been circulating in the European press all day that the deal was in trouble and that has now been confirmed to us by a trusted Upton Park source.

The Anderlecht defender - heavily wooed by Valencia before the Hammers stepped in - now looks likely to opt for the Spanish club after they returned with a bid of around nine million euros.

The big defender/midfielder had been expected to arrive in London for a medical tomorrow but Valencia made a late move and appear to have hijacked the deal.

An inside source said: "The deal began to unwind on Friday night and has gone from 90 per cent to 25 but we have many other players we are trying to bring in, Typically!



Well that ain't what kumb are saying its saying that valencia have been knock back and he is on route to discuss terms and a medical oh nameless one



I'm with you there bkkhammer plenty of people post on this site but won't leave their name.

Wish everyone would stop crying about who we haven't signed let's just wait and see what happens though the transfer window then judge the owners/manager.
Chris COYI



I agree he won't sign for us as other Spanish team have come in for him including Atletico Madrid, keep watching this is typical West Ham stalling yet again



That quote is from claret and high I wouldn't believe him he said ba had signed for us in January he's a fake more reliable sources say kouyate had his medical and will sign tommorrow / Wednesday



If he's had his medical then why are we waiting until tomorrow or Wednesday for him to sign?



It' happens at virtually every club there is just a few bits they have to iron out on the contract it isn't anything out of the ordinary probably negotiating bonuses etc everyone needs to stay patient and stop panicking it's the 16th June not the 16th august



Its called AGREEING TERMS



Bkk calm down son!



Not everyone is sat at home twiddling there thumbs with time to log on every 10 minutes



Hmmmm, seems Bkkhammer getting a little hot under the collar there me owld son. I agree with everything you say but reckon a little over excited there. Plenty of time for us to get the right players.

And one more thing, if you make people login your not going to get half the clients that you currently have and therefore a Rumour/Banter site where people can have there say will die a death because fans will find an alternative



{Ed039's Note - Thats not actaully true, many of the sites have gone registered posters only and is actually makes the interaction better as you know who is regular and you know the different posters opinions/mentalities. No plans for it for WHU page so far as far as I know but it does make it easier to converse and easier to edit)

Just read he has still not signed they are talking about a further 48 hours. If this is us stalling then he will go elsewhere and I don't blame him.



Ed39 good to see you back/
says on the top of the page july the 1st and its easier to reply to certain posts and helps pick out trolls with dodgy posts



{Ed039's Note - I've only just noticed that, been busy at work so getting caught up)

Kouyate deal has some hidden perks to it I think, remember he is Senegalese, which may help Diame get back on track if he is playing with some players from his home nation, that he can be more comfortable around maybe? Just thinking outside the box but if a top 6 side (LOL) do not come in for Diame and he ends up staying, he could work well with Kouyate. Some people dislike Diame, but there's no denying that, on his day, he's a powerful midfield presence

Snodgrass being chased by Hull as we have been scared off by his 4m price tag, what is the matter with us! Hull agree the 4m and are about to talk terms, watch him do well next season!



No

we would rather chase foreign players whose chances of making the grade are a lot less than snoddie

we should rename ourselves the Olympian Foreign Unattainables or fu for short



Bfs likes most of his players to have defensive qualities maybe why he is not pursuing snongrass let's wait n see



Snodgrass really? Do you honestly think he is a step up from Jarvis, Downing, Zarate or even Vaz Te? Thought we wanted improvements not just bench warmers.

Kouyate medical happening and lining up a 4 year deal, expected to happen within 48 hours according to online sources. Wont hold my breath but seems like advances are happening
