In what way does it make the club look better if we try and fail to sign a bunch of players? I think it’s pretty clear we are after a forward although whether a suitable player if forthcoming and within our budget remains to be seen. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gakpo is way out of our price range and bigger fish are interested in him. Let's hear about some realistic targets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does seem a pretty accepted theory that that’s what the West Ham owners do, in fairness, so don’t think it’s entirely fantasy that it does go on. But I agree it doesn’t seem to be the case with us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because West Ham are linked to every other player in the press doesn't mean they actually are. Their management will also be working their socks off to get transfers over the line. They don't have time to spend making `fake' bids to keep the fans happy. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted 29 August, 2022 Share Posted 29 August, 2022 5 hours ago, Convict Colony said: Expect PSV to go and buy the other goal and assist machine Karlsson from AZ Alkmaar. Personally I think it is a bit of a reach for us getting gakpo - surely he has bigger clubs looking at him Given the cost of Gakpo, others chasing him, and the late stage of the window it would perhaps be more sensible for us to cut out a few links in the chain and go for Karlsson ourselves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't have time to spend making `fake' bids to keep the fans happy. West Ham made two pretty laughable efforts to sign Raphinha and Phillips on deadline day in January, Leeds’ two best players, having not signed anyone during that window. A number of Journalists, fans and think I even heard Simon Jordan discuss it, all saw it as West Ham’s board trying to signal to the fans that they were trying, with an approach that was so obviously never going to be accepted.
