I wouldn't say useless but ridiculously over rated He offers a lot going forward, his assist stats tell that story, but he's completely unaware of what's around him defensively. We played the ball into Antonio in that channel multiple times and he was free to run at Van Dijk as he was no where to b...

He can see things others can't see, he just can't see who's in the space behind him.

He's the reason we beat Liverpool this season, useless defender.

God Klopp is horrible

Sell Benrahma for £15m

Involved in more goals this season than £50 million Watkins!

So if the transfer window isn't open how have teams signed players? Or havent they? And as for playing out our interest in Ward Prowse it just alerts other teams like Spurs. Oh we want you to stay Soucek now please, as we couldn't replace you. I'm sticking with the tena ladys as the last few window...

I dont understand why we cant take a long term view and go in for both Aguerd and Worrall

I doubt either of them would move without assurances of first team football.

Worrall isn't leaving Forest to sit on the bench behind Zouma.

Wouldn't read too much in to that. He is still learning after his 1st debut season in the hardest League of them all. Its not gonna be plain sailing throughout and Palace ain't a consistent side themselves. It's what he's done overall and the raw potential to build upon that, that matters to me hav...

Yes Stu, talking about next year, stating last years age doesn't make sense.

So stating their current age doesn't make sense?

Baptiste is 18, he is not 19, he isn't 19 for 6 months.

So because Bilic played Rice a couple of times and Pellegrini played Johnson once Moyes doesn't get credit for making them first team squad players :lol: Ridiculous. Rice made 5 appearances in the league under Bilic, Johnson made 1 under Pellegrini. But Moyes had nothing to do with bringing them th...

Our U23's and u18's were ranked 2nd and 1st respectively in the country. We probably had the fewest number on non English players in the Academy of any Premier League team. God help English football if they are not good enough. Moyes is doing an unbelievable job, the best of any West Ham Manager I ...

They seem to rate Perkins, but the lad looks like he needs to put on about 5 stone before he has a chance of making it in the Premier League. He only turned 18 a few months ago, so he has time. It does seem like Perkins is highly rated, not many 18 year old strikers playing often in the league, he ...

Yeah, zero chance he'd come here. Reportedly in love with living in Rome, thinks mourihno is the best coach he's ever had, just won a trophy with indications this is the start of a rebuilding project. He's also seemingly improved as a player but thought he was too good for us a year ago. Don't get ...

Are you adding a year on to their ages because you're thinking of the end of next season? Most of their birthdays are more than 8 months away and Baptiste isn't 19 until November. Then again, last year there were fans putting 34 as Ogbonna's age before the end of the season despite the fact that he...

I can't really see why so much people want to sell him. Last season he was arguably one of the best (or more useful is the better word) midfielders in the league. He covered most miles in the PL, by big difference. He won mist duels, most aerial duels..... 2nd in those charts was Benteke with somet...

Abraham would be a fantastic signing with another years experience and proven performance in a different league behind him. Signing him and Pope would be real statements of intent. I just see no reason for Abraham to leave Roma. He's breaking records over there, they've just won a trophy, Europa Le...

Slightly off topic but with Moyes reluctance to give academy players any minutes, even when we were desperate, do we assume that none are going to make it to the squad? Okoflex made the bench in the last few games, so he will probably get his chance pre-season. He's another left sided forward so I'...

When Pezza suggests Bissouma & Broja for less than £50m combined, surely suggests Broja loaned out again?

Reports are that Chelsea want £25 million for Broja.

Remember Giles Barnes? Was spoken of in the same terms as Gareth Bale when they were at Southampton. Sank without trace.

Didn't Barnes come out of the Derby academy? I do remember him, was vital in one of their promotion campaigns.

Less than that

That's the good stuff Pezza. Keep it coming.

I can't believe people are already accusing us of dithering. Window isn't even open.
