Yep, but they'll still claim it as one of the "record transfer fees" they've paid out and that will still be parroted by their paid/ grateful lackeys and believed by the naive.

Ball to feet, while creating goals for a poacher. Not the hoof ball we have been playing.

Seems extremely coincidental that both clubs are struggling and could seriously do with some additional players yet both are spending the square root of naff all.

Definitely think there's more to this.

Need a defensive midfielder? Nope, get nothing.

Massively short of attacking options? Let's sell some instead, happy to sell to relegation rivals as well.

So many injuries we need youth players to fill the bench? Loan them out.

They aren't even trying anymore, even getting close to self sabotage.

Ayew scored a dozen goals in a year - exactly what he was bought to do.

Hernandez essentially duplicates him, but is older.

The guy was dreadful week in week out. Happy to see him go personally

i agree, apart from the 20 min cameo vs spurs in the carabao cup and the goal vs palace , im struggling to see where he was so great .

Wtf is going on, it’s like a bad trip being a West ham fan lately , my feeling is they have run out of finance supply line and debts are being called in.

Why didn't they sell him earlier in the window so the money could be reinvested ? Because they had no intention of doing so is why.

Speechless.
TBF That’s not what he said...it’s Ex asking a rhetorical question as to whether there is enough time left.

Although I do agree I can’t see it happening but for all the reasons we know related to our dickhead glorified DOF

I bet the PNE player doesn't score 12 in 50 games, like Ayew did.

I have always said I would prefer Ayew off a striker than Hernandez up top.

If a business had sudden cash flow problems it would behave in a very similar manner, would it not?

He struggled, but I don’t think that he was a washout.

I 100% believe that this is the fee that Jinxed has been told it was but like you, I don't believe for a second we've coughed up anything like that much for him.

No, on his little show he said he's being told that was the reason.
