Any true in were trying to hijack the kazar samardzie deal from inter Milan
22m is a real steal
{Ed002's Note - Lazar Samardzic (CM) Likely arriving at Inter from Udinese and may free up Barella to depart but his agents are making huge demands to complete the transfer and Inter are not looking to get involved in such discussions. Napoli, Fulham and Leeds have enquired but no offers yet.}
1.) 12 Aug 2023 08:29:18
Thanks Ed the kid looks really good and if the reported price 22m is correct would love us to be all over it
Also reading this morning the man city lad palmer maybe be available
Both players would be great addition to our team expect both to push on given half a chance
{Ed002's Note - Cole Palmer (AM) RBL and Brighton have had offers turned down for Palmer whilst West Ham maintain an interest in taking the player and could now look to negotiating to take him in part exchange for for Lucas Paqueta. A loan may be more possible.}
2.) 12 Aug 2023 11:39:24
At last, something positive to talk about. Cole Palmer would be a definite move in the right direction. He’s a versatile young player who can only develop and, given the opportunity, would be a benefit to any team.
3.) 12 Aug 2023 19:24:56
We are said to be looking at Mohamed Kudus and Johan Bakayoko both quick and creative.
Would hate to lose Paqueta but getting a huge amount of cash plus Palmer would soften the blow a bit.
4.) 13 Aug 2023 02:20:59
If we are going to lose PAQUETA then ask for PALMER and £45million as if RICE and CAICEDO are worth £100 million then so is PAQUETA I know they are different players but PAQUETA is a game changer and with DE BRUYNE having done his hamstring then it all depends as if he's torn it he could be out for months I rate PALMER at about £40 or £50 million.
5.) 13 Aug 2023 10:12:11
40/50m seems very steep he's still to show how he handles himself in the league definitely think he can go on to be a exciting player
And really like were being linked with younger exciting players who want to prove themselves
I definitely think this is the way forward for us but am worried about how long it takes us to get a player over the line
Reports say maguire want £190k a week time to move on if true we can't break our wage structure for him
6.) 13 Aug 2023 17:52:48
Just a quick point on what Paqueta is worth. He is an automatic Brazil starter and we all saw how he can play in the PL in the last part of last season.
Apparently there is an £85m release clause in his contract which becomes effective next season. So he is valued at £85m in a year’s time. Any current price should include a premium for us not having him this season (and the buyer getting an extra year of the player) . Bear in mind that at 25 an extra year is probably more than 10% of the rest of his career. 10% of £85m = £8.5m. Add them together = £93.5m.
His value will increase.
A report today said we’re looking for £95.2m (strange figure, but there ya go) .
Of course, I’d rather he stayed and we added more quality this window. We’ll see, I suppose.
7.) 14 Aug 2023 09:34:03
Lucas Paqueta showed more towards the end of the season than the beginning last year as he settled in to the club.
Personally, if his head has been turned (as Moyes says it has) and he wants to leave West Ham for Man City, I can't really blame him. the thought of playing for a Treble winning team, managed by Guardiola, instead of Moyes.? Come on who wouldn't be interested?
If he does go. I would want us to take Taylor Harwood-Bellis and Cole Palmer in exchange with money. Forget about signing Maguire and spend the money we have on Ian Maatsen (LB) and Connor Gallagher (AM) from Chelsea and Elye Wahi (F) from Montpellier.
If there are funds left over in the coffers for another forward and a right back, then even better!
8.) 14 Aug 2023 14:28:46
The grapevine is alight with rumours that WHU is seriously going for Mohammed Kudus. Reported in al the usual places, including the serious sources.
9.) 15 Aug 2023 07:55:55
Believe it when I see it. MOYES is far too busy chasing his MAN UTD friends
10.) 15 Aug 2023 10:06:43
Moyes didn't even select Edson Alvarez for the bench against Bournemouth and he is a defensive midfielder, so I can't see him putting Kudus in the team as he is an ATTACK minded, FORWARD thinking player with FLAIR. Those words are like blasphemy to Moyes's footballing ideologies
11.) 15 Aug 2023 10:49:48
AGREED DIE. Its pointless recruiting players with any decent calibre cause iof they arn't moyes choices he just won;t play them. let's just get LINGARD in again and am sure he will be one of the first names on the team sheet cause he is a MOYES favourite. AM sick to death of this manager and the sooner he is gone the better
12.) 15 Aug 2023 16:26:47
Yes the "boy" is apparently training with us. Moyes will get him in to quell the " no new strikers" clamour. Or attempt to.
15 Jul 2023 13:31:02
Any news on the vlasic situ
It's gone all quiet on him did we pay up?
{Ed002's Note - Nikola Vlasic (AM) Torino took a gamble that not invoking the buy option at the end of the loan would lead to West Ham lowering their asking price. The gamble failed and West Ham are not looking to lower the price. The reason it has likely gone quiet is the player beginning to play up to force a move.}
1.) 16 Jul 2023 07:56:17
Thanks Ed
10 Jun 2023 09:42:08
Reading were looking at Harvey Barnes like the sound of this
Not so happy with the Rowe Smith rumour if Connor Gallagher an option think he'd be a far better fit
1.) 11 Jun 2023 19:06:01
I think smith-rowe is a quality player, had a slow season but there's no doubt he is top class
2.) 12 Jun 2023 00:54:18
I just cannot see ARSENAL let BALOGUN be included in the deal for RICE as I think ARSENAL are 100% committed to get him and as they don't go over the odds on players especially big transfer fees, also BALOGUN is highly rated by THIERY HENRY, I'd love BALOGUN, NELSON and TIERNAY and £40 million as NELSON is available on a free anyway.⚒⚒⚒
3.) 12 Jun 2023 13:06:44
I don't think they want to let smith-rowe or Balogun go but it all depends on how much they want Rice doesn't it, If Chelsea man u or city decide to blow arsenal's offer out the water they might have to offer us a player they don't want to lose.
Broja links resurfacing again could be included in any talks with Chelsea.
4.) 12 Jun 2023 15:36:50
I'd love to see Harvey Barnes and Connor Gallagher in West Ham colours. I don't want to see Harry Maguire or McTominay at the London Stadium because I think we can do better than both.
I see Antonio and Scamacca both want out. I have no problem with Antonio going, but ideally I'd like to see Moyes go and Scamacca stay under a new progressive manager.
5.) 13 Jun 2023 07:46:29
Great Post Tin and well summed up. I really don't want any more MAN UTD cast offs that have bigger ego's than the club. Obviously rumours swirling at thew moment heavily linking us to WARD PROWSE, HARVEY BARNES, Palhinha, Conor Gallagher, Broja. It seems the "Rice to Arsenal" deal is just about to be wrapped up, but I wonder what Chelsea would offer considering the players they want to offload such as Broja, Gallagher, Loftus Cheek and Pulisic
6.) 13 Jun 2023 07:47:40
Oh yeah, andf it seems we got another Year with DAVID MOYES

McTom had a great game for Scotland other day.
9.) 22 Jun 2023 09:24:32
What against Georgia or a poor Norway side imo spike DOWNES is a far better footballer than Mctominay but it's all about opinions.⚒⚒⚒

Djed Spence rb believe Tottenham want rid was good at forest
Got pace likes to get forward and I'm sure moyes would be able to improve his defending
1.) 23 Aug 2023 07:30:51
Spurs wouldn't sell w us
2.) 23 Aug 2023 07:59:46
Not reading much about other teams in for him offer the 12m and see how it stands
He ripped arsenal apart in forest Cup run two season ago
Really think he'd go from strength to strength in our team
3.) 23 Aug 2023 08:00:06
Agreed IRONTodd. He would be ideal for us, but Spurs would again send him abroad before they would sell to us. Its Daniel Levy thing
15 Aug 2023 08:40:28
Eds have you any idea what's holding up us making any signings
We're short in quite a few positions and in all honesty can't tell who we actually have in mind
{Ed002's Note - Nothing - Ward Prowse and Alvarez have already signed. The club will continue to work on others.}
1.) 15 Aug 2023 10:54:22
Its the WEST HAM way I'm afraid. We love a MULL, TALK, PONDER, Prepare bids, consider an approach for. We spend all damn Summer considering and mulling or talking. By the time PAQUETA ANTONIO AND CRESSWELL go, I figure we lost 6 players this window, from an already ageing and small squad. We brought in 2. We need at least another 5, that's one every 3 days between now and the closure of the window. COndiser it normally takes us 3 to 5 days to carry out a medical aswell, so time is running extremely short. Hence why people at the beginning of the window were animated because they know we need players, we have money and do nothing but TALK, MULL, ya de ya
2.) 15 Aug 2023 11:17:56
Another day of nothing but talking and showing interest in!
3.) 15 Aug 2023 12:03:13
Oh no, now we are Considering moves for Brennan Johnson and Mohammad Kudus. Considering FC!
4.) 15 Aug 2023 12:24:44
Looks like we have turned our attention to Odilon Kossounou one of the fastest defenders in football. So in theory we will offer £30m as we did for maguire. I bet we don't if he is valued at £35m?
5.) 15 Aug 2023 13:56:01
Would be really happy to see the two Ks join us. Both are high quality and at the beginning of their careers.
6.) 15 Aug 2023 14:28:06
Definitely Mmpr and its nice to see us looking out of the premier league and being ambitious, getting players with good sell on value. Look at this window with the sales of RICE and PAQUETA! If we can continue in that mould we can build a good framework for future success and prosperity. New manager would be nice LOL
12 Aug 2023 19:06:55
Can someone explain Tottenham sold kane yesterday he flew out for medical that evening and he's in the team today
But with us it takes forever and a day to get a signing over the line
And it's not only them that seem to get there deals done how many players have been signed since Southampton or even man u excepted our offers
10 Aug 2023 07:37:54
So reports today suggest paqueta has wanted out for months due to moyes style of football
When will the board wake up we can all see that the way he plays isn't and never will be what west ham are about
Just pay him off and let's move on
1.) 10 Aug 2023 08:15:03
Get that ex Wolves manager in pronto. Except he won't like our donkey signings abd remaining squad.
2.) 10 Aug 2023 08:15:06
I think it’s £4m to pay Moyes off but it’ll be the best £4m spent this summer, I would love someone like Nagelsmann as he would play to the players strengths and that way they probably wouldn’t want to leave.
06 Aug 2023 08:37:31
What's people's thoughts on luka jovic
Believe we tryed for him before he needs a fresh start two footed and shouldn't break the bank to get him given the service and play to his strengths he could give us the goals needed to keep us up
1.) 06 Aug 2023 09:32:32
The trouble is we probably won’t play to his strengths and he’ll want out in the next transfer window.
2.) 06 Aug 2023 10:58:05
You're right Stevie. Now where have I heard that before?
3.) 06 Aug 2023 13:26:15
We need a bulldozer as a forward if moyes continues to be in charge. What I find amazing (and it has to be sullivans doing) is that we struggled in the Premier league last season. We are going into this season with a smaller, older squad, minus our captain, our main centre forward, a midfielder (lanzini), possibly our long time left back and Antonio, and am not sure if the exodus will end there, and our board think we are ready
4.) 06 Aug 2023 16:15:44
AND, Moyes is expected to work miracles? If ever a setup to bring a manager down was in place, this is it?
18 Aug 2023 17:55:53
Well that's great news to be honest
18 Aug 2023 09:29:31
If we can bring in Harwood belis and Cole plus 50m it would be great business
16 Aug 2023 11:59:54
At a reported 50m no bloody way
Another player were being linked with chalobah at a report 45m price tag it's a joke
Both good players but have never shown enough to command such large price tags
Any player over 40m needs to be exceptional for me we don't have the money to be splashing out on inflated price tags
If we're building a squad we need to box clever as at the moment it looks like it's going to be a long season
13 Aug 2023 10:12:11
40/50m seems very steep he's still to show how he handles himself in the league definitely think he can go on to be a exciting player
And really like were being linked with younger exciting players who want to prove themselves

06 Sep 2023 11:52:10
But the windows open in January
I hope we revisit the Brazilian striker we were looking at then as i'm sure I read they wanted to keep him till December
I'm not against signing him on the right deal just don't see were he fits in now
06 Sep 2023 08:34:47
In all honest were does he fit in the team
Granted if we get injured he maybe useful but apart from that I don't see it missed the European squad now
I would be looking a striker if anyone as a free agent
01 Sep 2023 16:51:05
I don't see us getting over the line now see Palace have bid on the psg striker and Burnley have bid on the Chelsea lb we've been looking at no news about us
01 Sep 2023 10:17:11
We had a good window was really worried with the way it's started and think we could have done better but think Tim could be a really game changer in the way we do transfer business
I hope we can bring 1 or 2 in today especially if any are leaving we all have opinions on were we needed to fill but if we have to wait until January to get the right player over the line it is what it is
Come on you ⚒️
23 Aug 2023 19:40:15
For me jwp was the price being reported wasn't it over 40m and his age
Did think he'd do a good job and because we never went through with the maguire deal he'll be a great leader on the pitch
Far happier we got him than maguire
