Did archer not tend to play deeper when he did play 2nd half of the season

Is dobbin not already effectively the archer replacement? As for downs, not sure what sort of player we’d be looking to bring in to be 3rd choice striker and play very few minutes.

Only seen the highlights so can’t comment on his performance. Reading comments doesn’t seem that the midfield was dire but neither was it excellent.

Great to see how well larin and azaz have started (and now scienza back up to speed. Great to beat a promotion rival emphatically, let’s hope we can build momentum off the back of it.

Still reallly dislike the move as Charles replacement. now it’s done I hope he and rest of our midfield prove me wrong.

You really think he's gone one of highest paid at WH to peanuts here

We've taken on his big wages for 2 years and given west ham money, that's laughably horrible.

Maybe Spors has bet money on West Ham getting promoted

No a saints fan that wants a midfielder to go forwards not sideways and backwards

Super depressing signing.

Vranckx career seems to have stalled somewhat. 7 goals in his 3 years and then none in 4.

Yep at this level going for another sideways plodder over a box to box type is going to cost us points.

Hoping you mean jwp is past it, not that we’ve signed the crab.

Might as well bring back Joe Aribo then we'll truly have the full set of crabs.

Why if we're being told we should accept an over the hill free crab as a replacement for Charles.
