Re: Declan Rice

If we qualify for the Champions League next season I think he'll stay, and see if the club can do it again.

Re: January 2022 Transfer Window

A Mexican stand-off? It doesn't come across that way in Moyes interviews… He often makes the point that it's not the owners but him being picky about identifying targets he wants… Seems funny that he would effectively defend them if they are pissing him off so much

Simply put signing Jesse Lingard at 29 years old for £3.5m is an absolute steal…

Why change a winning side?

Cause you make that winning side better? cause winning sides don't just continue to win eternally

It really isn't well over the odds for a player of his quality though, they got a bargain.

Re: Summer Transfer Window 2017

If you go to buy a new shirt for £50 and they haven't got your size, so you go to buy a new pair of trousers for £50 and they don't have your size, so you go to buy a new pair of shoes for £50 and they don't have your size. It doesn't mean you have £150 spare!

If the chairman does keep upping the price I don't blame us for walking away.

Re: Manchester United vs West Ham United match thread

Ayew was playing!? Our midfield shape in the first half hour was all over the place, frequent misplaced passes leaving our MF behind the ball and leaving Hernandez isolated

Re: Summer Transfer Window 2017

Some more quotes from the manager regarding him not being in the squad "We are all curious about William, he is a very popular player, very coveted.” “It was to protect William, Sporting, everything,” Jesus said about Carvalho’s absence. http://www.101greatgoals.com/news/transfers/william-carva...

and guess they could have been discussing fee for days but a good way for him to get around it if West Ham haven't put in an official offer yet

Re: Summer Transfer Window 2017

This idea of replacements is a bit funny, it goes about as far as you lose a decent player you need to try and sign a decent player, more often than not they're unlikely to be similar in style, Payet is pretty much irreplaceable for us, as is Lanzini, problem for a club like us is we can't buy sure ...

Re: Summer Transfer Window 2017

Agree that the main quality in a DM is discipline, that's why the players who are best at it, are often far from being the best technical footballers, guys that recognise their limitations and know to keep it simple.

Carlton for DM?

Re: Summer Transfer Window 2017

Balde sounds like bad news, perfect for us, or if not he'd already be at Real Madrid. Sounds like Payet? Great, Payet worked out great for us.

I'm not the biggest fan of the boards but when you look at the crap previous regimes have bought, I think G&S have done very well.

Re: Summer Transfer Window 2017

I'm not saying we shouldn't consider Wilshire but we should do so by looking at his injury record to date and expecting it to continue in a similar pattern for us, not with some blind optimism that he will suddenly put all past issues behind him and become an ever present (and with a contract that r...

Re: Summer Transfer Window 2017

Valencia is just one of those frustrating players, killer shot and quick but just didn't seem to have a clue when it came to intelligence/decision making, players like this don't really tend to improve.
