Gone to the board meeting to sit in on the transfer targets discussion between Sam Sully and Silkman.He will be along later with a list of players from that meeting the names will be Hazard Remy Neymar and of course with the 'exciting times gentleman' line.Then all bids will be rejected for these players and we will end up with Heskey and some crappy out of contract Sunderland players.

I think Kevin Mirallas, the Belgian striker on Olympiakos is great, would love him here. However probably too much and I heard Bayern are interested. So maybe this Bas Dost deal will go through?

From a poster on WHO:-

Big Sam last night held talks with Clarence Seedorf about the possibility of signing a one year contract with West Ham.

Seedorf is currently a free agent and Allardyce offered terms after a charity match they both were involved in.

Ball is in Seedorf's court now but he could be WHU first summer signing.

Wouldn't be disappointed with Zaha at all, pacey and can beat a player, not the finished article yet but can be a good player.

I know Eden Hazard is behaving like an enormous twat with his 37 times changing his mind when he is going to announce his transfer and that he will be announcing it via twitter.

But as an outsider,it is quite amusing watching which effect it has on fans of the 3 clubs involved. Reading bluemoon forum amongst others and it is somewhat hilarious tp follow all the reactions

Baldock valued at what £2m? Zaha £10m? Cannot see us stumping up the difference.

Also when he signed his new deal Zaha said he was happy to play one more season at Palace unless a top four side came in.

A load of BS coming out of a loan offer for Baldock would be my bet.

As for Seedorf, too slow for the Premier League especially in our midfield!

Zaha?

Is he better than Kieran Richardson, Scott Sinclair or Matt Phillips?

Not from what I've seen.

I agree, I said I wouldn't mind Zaha but if the chance to buy Sinclair/Phillips would be a better buy and if we could do it I'd be ecstatic.

Would love Zaha, so talented for his age.

Will be a top player!

It's easy link us with Seedorf, Not sure if there's anything in it really. Can we accomodate him in our midfield? He's also going to want quite high wages and would Gold and Sullivan pay it when they won't give Green what he is asking for?

Can't remember if I said anything at the time but I thought Seedorf signing was unlikely when you suggested it. I still do. He's this years Van Nistelrooy, Beckham, Neymar, Remy etc. He'll get better offers I reckon.

Seedorf is no slower than Scholes or Carrick. He'd do a very decent job over here I think. Good vision, passing, shooting and strong on the ball.

Will be nearly as good without the muscular physique and aerial prowess Ronaldo has. Everything else however like dribbling, shooting, passing, bag of tricks he matches up with Ronaldo pretty evenly

Without the physique. How do you know he wont start lifting? He's only 21. :lol:

He seems like he loves attention. He has said he will play in blue, then that he'll.play in Manchester. Im suprised he hasny got his own decision programme like LeBron James did.

I dont get the hype tbh. But could say the same about all the Palace.prospects that get massive hype. Bostock, Moses and even that Scannell was at one point.
