We hope to sell vaz te for between 2-3 million and spence has been released - we want caicedo on loan with a view to buy - abdoulaye ba from Porto 2 million - we may also sell Taylor for a million and Henderson may go on loan so with that money left we will have kalou on a 2 million deal



Not scene any news on spence being released still shows up on kumb squad list

What do people make of Hugo Almeida? He is on our shortlist and could snap him up before the window closes, valued at £3m

He seems like a strong forward with a good strike on him. ideally I would look at a small fast forward who can tear back lines apart with pace over another big strong striker like Carroll

Saying that, anyone half decent will do to bring it at the moment considering interest in people like Ameobi!



If we pick up any player he the player will always be 2nd fiddle to Andy Carroll, unless we play a 4 4 2, what do u think guys

Just had a look at players thst have been sold, l saw a name of ex Blackburn player Pedersen why wouldn't we go for a player like him proven goal scorer but no, most likely have know one



Pederson is a midfielder, and is past it!

Diarra has been ruled out for the rest of the season this is unfortunate for us and himself but think we should of offloaded him at the start of the window would of freed up some much needed wages but he didn't have a bad pre season so I can see why he was kept. I'm sure we'll be making a signing or two before the window shuts don't know why some fans are getting so worked up if we get a result at the weekend it will be a great start to the season. Chris

I would just like to say that I cannot beleive some of the Narrrow minded whingers on here who fail to see the bigger picture all the time! when we panic buy and spend biug money on unknown's (Savio) you all whinge but when there clearly working on something behind the scenes to get in a player that Big Sam (the expert) thinks would fit the bill your still not happy, I would understand the frustration if we had started the season with two lose's or if we were still in the championship, but we have just signed Two England international's and the Captain of Romania as well as an up and coming Goalie of the back of a great first season back in the Premiership! so if you are a west ham fan like me through thick and thin then its time to SUPPORT the team and stop bring them down with the negativity!



Couldn't agree more, I have been posting against all the negative posts on this forum for a little while now, we are more than capable of another top ten finish. we are not contending for Europe or the bloody league title so what is everyones worry?

Solid top ten finishes until 2016 when we move home to the queens stadium and then maybe we can step it up a notch to start making top 8 finishes with a bit of bite to contend for a place in Europe



Ditto .



Completely agree.

BFS and the Davids have turned the club around completely in a very short time. I have never seen a club bounce back from a position that we were in so quickly and successfully, so huge credit has to go to them. A lot of fans lose sight of this and have no memory as to how down in the dumps we really were. They are doing a great job.

There is a bright future ahead. We have two years until we step into the new stadium and I for one would like to see us in a really strong position when we get there. This will be a slow process and it needs to be done properly without big risks. Moyes took 8 years to make Everton a consistent top 10 team, the whingers seem to expect BFS and Davids to do it in 2! I can only assume that these fans know nothing about the game. So in the words of Andy Gray "Do me a favour love"

I am disappointed to see RVTs comments recently, and to see he has put a transfer request in. Although I do sympathise with him, and I see his reasoning. A lot of people say he is not EPL quality, but he has not had a chance to play in his position to prove otherwise, so these opinions are essentially based on little substance. He certainly isn't a top EPL quality winger, he HAS proved that. He deserves to be ahead of Maiga in my opinion and I would love to see him start against Stoke. It sounds like he took one for the team last season by playing out of position on the right. That shows commitment and he deserves a chance ahead of Maiga.

Torres could be on the way out of Chelsea. Cheeky loan bid anyone?



I would, wages will be too high for us though : (
