He felt like the piece of the jigsaw Rafa's system was missing. As said we desperately need some strikers now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That it’s not a smokescreen in other words? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just enjoy the season that's in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogerbarton 24 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Kenedy an excellent start. Need to see some proper movement on the striker front ASAP though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7025 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Aye, we've effectively stood still so far. We had Dubravka and Kenedy last season and we've swapped Merino for Ki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zico martin 89 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Ki is really shit as well tbh. I know rafa can get the best out of players but I'm not confident it will I'm this occasion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howay 12496 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 4 hours ago, Ant said: Aye nice to have him back, but can you see that kinda deal making rafa feel secure Aye, we know enough about him and the buy clause must surely be an amount Chelsea are happy to sell him for so I can’t see us buying him at the end of the loan if we could just sign him permanently now for that price. If Ashley wasn’t a monumental cunt you could make an argument it’s structuring deals so that we can spend more now and buy Kenedy once we get another year of PL money in, but he is so we won’t. Don’t get me wrong I like Kenedy, I’m just not a fan of loaning players repeatedly like this as in a year we’re still needing a winger. If he has a brilliant season there’s also the chance he turns us down and moves somewhere else. If the price is 20M it’s a no brainer to just sign him now as we’d get that at the very least selling him on, these are the sort of moves I can’t wrap my head round with the fat knocker that owns Newcastle.

Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted July 10, 2018 Author Share Posted July 10, 2018 Under the Ashley regime I've learned not to look past the immediate season as things always change very quickly at the club, just look at last season as prime example. In a few months we went from battling relegation to talk of a European spot. It's best just to look at the here and now, and Kenedy for another campaign is a good signing. Prefer him to Townsend.

ewerk 30597 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Quote West Ham are in discussions with Lazio to sign midfielder Felipe Anderson for a club record fee of around £40m. The Hammers have already signed Jack Wilshere and Ryan Fredericks on free transfers this summer, plus spent £29m on Issa Diop and Lukasz Fabianski. They are also close to completing the £17m transfer of Ukraine forward Andriy Yarmolenko from Borussia Dortmund. West Ham ffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erm there’s basically only one pro team to choose from. And even then I’d advise you not to bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
