Think Callum O’Hare was player of the season and this other fella was players player of the season and young player of the season. Not that it makes much difference, seems to be rated quite highly

Aribo was in the exact same situation as JWP, last year of his contract and not going to move unless it suited him so it’s not really pedantry but a factor that doesn’t suit your argument. For what it’s worth, I think he probably will leave, it was you that doesn’t even entertain the idea that he might stay.

Exactly, we did it with some but not all. Fuck me, took you a while to get there but well done.

We didn’t with either Edozie or Aribo last season. Aribo obviously did in January but we wanted shot in the summer. Bella Kotchap similarly the season before that.

Finances though innit? Not really disputing that West Ham will want to shift him (“probably” for the benefit of the anally retentive MLG) but if no one meets their demands then they may have no option. It’s not unrealistic or uncommon for that to happen. Anyway, bored of this, crack on, it’s really not a big deal or that complicated to understand

Yeah, I guess it could be interpreted like that so for your benefit, it should probably be “it’s likely West Ham will want to shift him on”

I love definitive posts like this when you have no idea what will actually happen. I’m sure West Ham will want to shift him on but whether they can is another matter. Odds are he probably will go but I wouldn’t be as certain as you are.

He might end up staying at West Ham simply because no one will meet whatever valuation they put on him and/or come close to his wage demands. He’s only got a year left so he’ll probably be quite cheap but shifting players after relegation isn’t always easy.

Hard to assess until we've seen him play. The fact that Sunderland didn't feel he could do a job in the premier league probably gives more of an indication of where his level is than any fan comment but I'm relatively happy if we do sign him and sounds like he would be a useful addition to the squad. Fan comments seem to be mixed and are often a useful barometer but we'd never have taken Larin on loan if we put too much store in them.

Still not big enough for Italy to qualify though.

Keep it, looks good, nothing wrong with it as it is and pretty much all new crests/badges look shite anyway and end up being refreshed to something else that also looks shite. Anyone that wants a new one can go do their own and get a tattoo of that on their arse if they're that bothered about it.

Dan Neil seems like it could be a good bit of business. Looks like he can tackle, go past players and has a decent pass on him too. Particularly like that he can receive the ball on the half turn as well. If we've got central midfield options of Downes, Bragg, Neil and Jander then that's a proper competitive midfield for next season. Sort out the competition for the 10 position and a replacement for Stewart and we should be sorted. Obviously just a case of replacing any others that leave after that.

Oh yeah, I missed that. This gentle comedy has me in stitches.

Come to the wrong thread Chez, this one is only for bad puns I think.

Well two have willingly given up their seats for him already so they're kind of getting used to the idea....
