Ayatollah Hermione 13862 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Sometimes, you sign a player and it just doesn't work out. Maybe they struggle to settle or they have injury problems or the manager leaves just as they arrive and the new one doesn't fancy them but you leave saying "aye, you can see he has something about him" I have no idea what anyone saw in him. What a load of shite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acrossthepond 877 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 If Mitrovic is a donkey, I have no idea what Riviere was. He had a fluke season and scored a fair-to-good amount of goals in a fair-to-good league and we chomped hard, thanks to our amazing continentally-renowened scouting team consisting of Alan Carr's dad. Good riddance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfy 12 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 It's nice to get Riviere off the wage bill and also looks like de Jong is about to piss off to Ajax. We have a bit of lee-way for bringing a player in and being able to finance it without any issues, if Rafa has one or two in mind/negotiations. We should clear the decks fairly easily from now on because those were the two most difficult to shift for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfy 12 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Snodgrass to Villa on a season long loan. Someone said he was better than what we had at Newcastle. i can't remember who but it shows how desperate he is to enhance his career. It actually shows how desperate West Ham are to get rid of the half hearted waste of effort. Ambition at its best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1244 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Apparently we're in talks with Chelsea for Remy. I know he's played very little of late but it's a no brainer for me. We know he's a quality player who could give us a few options in terms of style of play and I think it would be a lift for many of the fans.

Getting someone like Remy would be a monstrous error by this club. Remy is well below standard and on sickening wages. He did well for us when Q.P.R had to offload for the season but soon showed his true mindset. Preferring to sit on the Chelsea bench whilst his bank account fattened up.

Alternatively he's scored 1 goal in 2 seasons and hasn't hit any sort of form since we sold him. Apparently we were offered Rui Patricio in exchange for Krul + £8mil and said no.

Only those in charge of the club coffers will know what's in the pot. I'd hazard a best guess that we have more than enough to cater for a couple of double figured (millions) players.

The mercenary twat is quick and can score goals in the PL In a second, and that pains me to say considering that I never wanted him in the first place. The years have not been kind to him but he's done the job before and I'd be confident in him to get some goals. Again, I'm not writing Gayle off, but we're going to need more than just him.
