Cant see the club spending 150m would be surprised if our net spend was anything close to over 100m unless Rice was being sold.

I would imagine the club is making two plans for summer: one where we win the Europa League, bring in some talent, and Rice signs a new contract; and another where we get eliminated tonight, get 7th or 8th, and Rice gets sold next summer.

I’d be really disappointed if there wasn’t a plan for if the worst happened. Sensible clubs have targets identified for every position if the incumbents were to leave, it’s what Leicester do and arguably, very successful at it.

He's been superb against us every time this season.

Well worth a punt. Not many 20/21 year olds playing CF or CB in the PL.

Gonna be a lot of West Ham fans disappointed when they see he isn’t always the player we have seen him as.

But he is the right age and profile, could rotate well with Antonio.

I’d like the rip the spine out of Southampton and get him, JWP and Salisu

We need two, unless Johnson is playing LB.

Cresswell has officially reached Mcknight, Roberto levels now.

Thing is, he's been dreadful in the league - not just Europe. The odd good cross is not enough.

People were blinded by all his "assists" last season

Coufal only had a few less bit he didn't take set pieces ..cresswell is a dead ball merchant .. open play?. Meh

Careful guys, you’ll be told that you’re not even a real fan if you point out Aaron’s mediocre to abysmal performances for us

The glaring holes are the same as before this game. Starting LB, Starting CB, CM competition for Soucek, a starting calibre CF and being greedy a new LW/Attacking mid

I wish that were true but Moyes seems incredibly loyal to his senior pros

Cresswell's failings have cost in the league as well as Europe.

He was terrible at Leicester, Spurs and Brentford.

He is costing the club millions in lost revenue.

Being a bit over dramatic mate, we are all disappointed.
He made another mistake because he isn't good enough. There is no malice in it.

The fault lies in him not being upgraded on for 18 months and persistently playing a defender who can't defend. We have penny pinched for years at full back.

Do I want to see him as first choice left back - no. And I haven't for a long time.
But if a guy who isn't good enough is costing us games the fault lies with the people who put him there.
