Byram gone for less than a mil, is great business for norwich . Good luck to him.
1.) 16 Jul 2019 09:39:10
its absolutely pathetic business from West Ham! we sell a 25yr old English PML player to another PML team for 750k! . you couldn´t buy a 2nd division player for that! . who negotiates these deals! . ridiculous!
2.) 16 Jul 2019 10:02:50
It doesn’t sound good, but he was in the last year of his contract on £30k a week and WH needed to free up his wages. I’ve read that there are conditions written in so presumably there’s a hefty sell on clause.
16 Jun 2019 17:23:28
Just read, valencia have dropped out of maxi gomez deal.
1.) 16 Jun 2019 18:59:24
The reporting is all over the place. First both WH and Val have had £29m bids accepted, then, we only bid £25m which has been turned down, then Val bid hasn’t been accepted because they want to do a cash plus player bid and are over-valuing the player (or Celta are under-valuing him.
My conclusion: we are still in it and what MP wants, he usually gets.
2.) 16 Jun 2019 20:46:03
We should offer chica to Valencia to back off from Maxi Gomez. 2 birds one stone. I think they were interested at one point in the past.
3.) 17 Jun 2019 09:21:50
Good idea, but he’s on so much wages with us very few sides will look at him. It’s a bit of a Bale situation, I think.
4.) 17 Jun 2019 13:08:07
Chica also only has one year left on his contract, we are more likely to see Arnie go as we can still get money for him, unlike Chica.
5.) 18 Jun 2019 17:11:26
Give Valencia a cash break of 2 mil. instead of 8 mil. 6mil. get him off our wage bill and secure Gomez.
We all win.
15 Jun 2019 13:28:28
Sky sports claiming westham have offer accepted for maxi Gomez 29m with add ons, Valencia have also had bid accepted . please plz plz.
1.) 15 Jun 2019 14:04:19
Yes but only to make up the numbers never going to win it
Would be a great signing for us fingers cross that London and our salary can persuade him.
2.) 15 Jun 2019 14:26:30
Also reporting that we have made a 13m bid for Joan Jordan.
Hope Gomez picks us he can be our main man up top for many years he might struggle for game time at Valencia certainly less competition for that spot here.
Imagine if we do actually get all our business done early hats off to husillios and Pellegrini and Sullivan of course ;)
3.) 15 Jun 2019 15:17:16
Belbuena, Lanzini and Fornals all speak Spanish which helps. But what a great capture Fornals is, to add Gomez is the icing on the cake. Lanzini, Anderson, Yarmalenko, Antonio, Fornals, Wilshire are all quality attacking midfielders, most of those would get into any top 6 side.
06 Jun 2019 07:25:58
Were being heavily linked with claude maurice, this young fellas excites me . Can play out wide, or up top and even through the middle, could partner rice in the long term.
1.) 06 Jun 2019 08:56:29
Got to ask how he will partner Rice if he plays out wide or up top?
He could be his table tennis doubles partner when they are away on the pre-season training camps.
2.) 06 Jun 2019 10:05:35
I find it strange that some shoot down the likes of Hayden, who is English and has experience in the league, but get excited over some French lad we’ve never seen play and hasn’t had experience of the Prem.
One reason Fulham struggles last season even after spending was that they didn’t buy many players with Prem experience. Can we afford to have players get used to the league every year?
Give me Hayden all day long. Coaches are there to improve players and Pellegrini will do so.
3.) 06 Jun 2019 10:27:13
Long term they see his future as a center mid and sometimes you have to take gambles on forign players, who could be potentially world class, Hayden wont.
4.) 06 Jun 2019 11:01:10
I’d like to know where this opinion and knowledge comes from? We all pick out facts, statements and opinion to fit the agenda that suits us most but I find it strange it’s done with such regularity when it comes to football players.
And this isn’t a dig at you Irontodd. We all do it. I think it’s wise to take a punt on a youngster but when we need a midfield more than anything it would be better to sign him alongside someone with experience in the league. Hayden may not set the world alight but a season or three with him will allow any younger players to come through at leisure and develop naturally.
5.) 06 Jun 2019 12:26:37
carles alena?
6.) 06 Jun 2019 15:13:44
Hi bucky the reason fulham went down was they didn't buy well the only decent players they bought was MITROVIC and BABEL and to all those who said we should have signed MAWSON I for one said he ain't good enough his last 2 clubs have been relagated VIETTO wasn't given a chance but wasn't strong enough for our league imo and ANQUISSA £30 mill cor blimey my old China 28 mill too much imo they just didn't play as a team either. COYI.
7.) 06 Jun 2019 16:15:18
I believe many of our fans would have been excited with some of Fulham’s acquisitions because they are rated highly or have potential or play for decent clubs in Europe. Just the step up to the prem is difficult. They bought far too many players not used to the league and that’s what caused the issue for me. Buying a couple of players is fine but 5 or 6 that don’t know the league is a joke.
8.) 06 Jun 2019 19:12:50
Yeah Bucky like when they signed Nordveit would have been really excited If we signed him.
They did look like a really poor side, a side just chucked together and how they defended was appalling.
Hayden could turn out to be a solid signing though works hard gets stuck in. Just hard to say if his form was down to playing in an organised Rafa team that may have suited him more than how Pellegrini will play. Also the chance that in areas where he may be lacking technically compared to someone like Gomes could be improved upon playing the way Pellegrini wants to, who knows?
I don't think Hayden should be getting stick though he's rated up north and the reason for selling is that he wants to be down here for family.
I trust Pellegrini in making decisions on players but i'm not filled with confidence on how we have operated in the past with negotiations.
As for this claude maurice maybe eds can clarify if we are actually interested and how concrete it is?
I certainly like the thought of us spending decent money on young talent.
27 May 2019 19:30:35
Just heard were interested in Philip biling.
1.) 28 May 2019 15:26:46
Great addition if possible👍👍⚒⚒.
2.) 28 May 2019 18:44:47
Hasn’t he had injury issues this season?

Fredericks has been outstanding today.
1.) 10 Aug 2019 14:26:14
The only decent performance. Everything else was slow laboured and clumsy.
22 Jul 2019 18:53:22
Saint maximine available for 23m . No brainer.
13 Jul 2019 11:53:43
Haller for me, I would be more than happy if we ended summer now with haller, welbeck and biling, carroll is training again with us and I can see us offering him a pay as you play contract.
1.) 13 Jul 2019 14:20:28
Haller and Billing for me. Whilst the Carroll pay as you play idea isn’t a bad one, with our developing and widening squad, I don’t want him taking up one of the registered places.
2.) 13 Jul 2019 15:31:21
I agree I don't want us to re-sign Carroll but I was told he was training with us, as for welbeck that's who I can see us signing after our marquee signing, there won't be enough funds to go get 2 top strikers.
3.) 13 Jul 2019 17:52:39
He won't be getting paid very often then.
09 Jul 2019 12:51:35
What about a loan move for delph with option to buy . City said he's available and he wants regular game time.
{Ed002's Note - Only WHU could look to loan a player they have no interest in and then look to buy when he is a free agent next year.}
1.) 09 Jul 2019 16:48:56
Hi Ed is the premiership payments paid in instalments. COYI.
{Ed002's Note - For what? Winnings or television money.}
2.) 11 Jul 2019 01:50:03
Its just that every transfer seems to be paid in installments at least we do that's what's cost us apparently from getting GOMEZ. COYI.
26 Jun 2019 18:17:44
I know a striker is now our main target but I still do believe were in desperate need for another defensive midfielder. I like philip biling from huddersfield and I don't think he would cost a fortune. Any thoughts?
1.) 27 Jun 2019 09:37:33
Hi Irontodd
Its a valid point, but we have Rice and now Sanchez is back, and suppose at a push Noble could drop in there, in fact that's where I can see Noble playing as his career comes to an end.
Billing is only 23 and i'm unsure if its a wise move at such a young age to come and be 2nd or even 3rd choice DM. to break into the Denmark team i'm sure he would need to be playing regular,
Saying that if Rice has another blinding season and stupid money comes in next Summer for him that the DGS just can't refuse than it could very well be the perfect person to come in to get used to the team, its one of those really, and kind of depends how long they think they could keep hold of Rice, but a very decent shout on your behalf.
2.) 29 Jun 2019 00:09:59
If we really want to break into the top 6 then we need to keep our top players and not sell them off.
3.) 29 Jun 2019 17:24:59
Noble isn't quick enough to play C/ DM to close play down and break things up I don't think he's quick enough to play at premier league level in his position no more just my opinion. CIYI.
17 Jul 2019 18:48:26
I first saw it when they revealed the 3rd kit along with the dance, been smiling all day since . If anyone hasn't seen the video it's worth the watch.
14 Jul 2019 12:13:53
Maupay along with haller I'd be happy but not as our main summer striker.
19 Jun 2019 14:46:32
I like the look of him.
13 Jun 2019 10:47:43
I think fornals will play in a deeper position.
06 Jun 2019 10:27:13
Long term they see his future as a center mid and sometimes you have to take gambles on forign players, who could be potentially world class, Hayden wont.
17 Jul 2019 19:17:05
I also fancy Leicester this year to be chasing top 6.
13 Jul 2019 15:31:21
I agree I don't want us to re-sign Carroll but I was told he was training with us, as for welbeck that's who I can see us signing after our marquee signing, there won't be enough funds to go get 2 top strikers.
