You should go onto the Olympic Stadium thread. Fuckloads on there saying it'll financially cripple West Ham. Might make you feel better.

Been watching him in U21's and he's bossing it. Very technically gifted, intelligent and strong.Nabil Bentaleb is this lad any good?
I like Bernado Silva too, but Riccardo stands out also.
They have just slaughtered Germany and theres still 20 mins to go!
Muzzy works for Mondial. They represent nearly all the players we have been linked with...coincidence?
Alderweirled, Martial, Konoplyanka, Imbula, Kondogbia, Rabiot, Cabaye, Mitrovic, Lloronte and even Victor fucking Moses.
So, could it be Giroud? He was seen meeting Muzzi in a Hampstead restaurant for a talk last week. He's with Mondial.
I am joking!
Edit. Reading between the lines of his last twat on twitter; doesn't Toby come back from his honeymoon next week.

Would you not want Jesé

? Explain why if so?

Whoops, meant to press the agree button. Sorry for the confusion. But I would for sure love to have him.Would you not want Jesé
If this Muzzi fella isn't a wum ... then this new signing that he's referring to has to be Alderwierld, imo.
And I'll be pretty stoked if it happens. Alderweild isn't an exciting signing per se, but it's damn sure that he'll strengthen us big time. Can't wait to see a rejuvenated Verts-Alder partnership.
wth is it with China. Demba Ba joined Shanghai Greenland Shenhua for 13.5 million euros...
It's a purchase disguised as a loan.
Inter are short money now, but think they can get back to CL money next year.
Inter started using this trick to get around FFP rules and spread out purchases over 2 years. They structure as a loan with an obligation to purchase. Then make payments in 12 month or 24 month installments. I believe they have used this to get Shaqiri, Miranda, Kondogbia, Imbula, Montoya . . .
Kane can play off Benteke either behind or on the left with eriksen in the other spot. That's an improvement over chadli
I'd rather have Kane play where he belongs.
Absolutely, but having the option of mixing it up a bit then that would work.. We need to be a bit more unpredictable and have alternatives.
I think Harry's better left as the striker, with the rest of the universe revolving around him.
An improvement over Chadli is a left wing who's both faster and a better presser. Kane or Eriksen at LW don't solve that.
How Spursy, let's take our 30 goal man and shift him out into a supporting role for a new guy.
Exactly. Kane is totally different to benteke. Him or Austin gives us better options than our current strikers.
Signing players is not like FIFA 15. You need more than just coins
Unfortunately even if we really wanted a player, were willing to meet his Adebayoresque wages and the transfer fee, there is no guarantee we will get him if any one of those clubs above us - or even media pimped, 'boyhood' club Liverpool - want him.
Anyway, we saw Man U, Liverpond spend big last season. We were 2 points above Liverpool and 2 wins of Man U - who had no European fixture list.
The team is bigger than the parts. I just hope we sign decent players that will make us a solid team.
With all this creaming about MS going on, what if in 2011/12 we would have bought him from a Div 1 side newly promoted to Championship for say 3 x as much, £5m instead of 30yrd old Parker?
I can bet a few of us would have been bemoaning our lack of ambition.

If we have a chance to get Benteke we should take it. I don't think we'll pay his release clause though.
Has Kane had more than one good game playing behind a striker? Seemed or attack fell apart completely whenever we brought on Soldado and shifted Kane to play behind him.
