If so, they would have nerve playing the `poor' card. Wonder if they will pay us that way for Lavia. I would hope we have the minerals to stand up to them and demand it all up front.

Think it depends on Rice and where they choose to re-invest. If I was West Ham I'd play a midfield three of Downes, Soucek and Paqueta and focus on upgrading the players in front of them, because neither Ings or Antonio can be relied upon really, so in that scenario he's not coming to us.

It’s an open forum where everyone can have an opinion. A few weeks back I said it wouldn’t surprise me if JWP stayed alongside Lavia, Alcaraz I also said I don’t see leaving. Two weeks on, I think Lavia is the most likely to go. JWP I still don’t think will leave - same as I said and was correct about last summer. We may have gone down a division but I’ve a feeling JWP knows his England career is done and he is best served being front and centre and being a one-club career man, than earning a few extra quid and bench warming a mid-table Prem team. Gut feeling. Nothing more than that. Alacaraz I think will stay. JWP I think will stay. Aribo I think will stay - sadly. Players such as Onuachu, Lyanco etc I think will be loaned out due to their high wages rather than sold. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This doesn't feel like the Livramento signing, where Chelsea were keen to retain him. On this occasion Chelsea have simply released him. that doesn't mean he won't be a good signing for us. They and Arsenal seem to swallow up almost every single quality youngster south of the Watford gap these days, and they can't keep them all. There is bound to be a few let go that subsequently shine. Hope we pick up the right ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One can only assume talk of ‘champions league’ and ‘competing’ is utter bullshit for footballers, who would’ve guessed? The Neves deal is bizarre and I’d happily wager he’ll be at Newcastle shortly for a fee less than what he’d have commanded in a premier league to premier league transfer. Called it! The latest scam to avoid FFP I’d suggest since Chelsea closed the door on lengthy contracts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Wolf Posted 22 June, 2023 Share Posted 22 June, 2023 Wouldn't be surprised at Downes. He's been publically in our radar since we played Swansea in the cup a couple of years ago.

IMO it makes more sense for West Ham to sign him, a potential world class player and a genuine holding midfielder, than JWP, who is a quality player himself, but his best work, last season at least, was in a box to box role. Lavia would start and no reason why he can't then move to the bog sides a couple of years later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure Brentford have quite a robust wage structure, where they don't pay over £50k-£60k as standard. Fulham have always been pretty free spending with salaries, plus he probably prefers Silva's style to Frank's - plus could probably get away without moving homes.

Hate to be MLG amigo but Boehly isnt part of Clearlake capital - Begdad Eghbali is the one who is the co-founder and involved there. Looking at the numbers they also manage 60 bililon in assets of which 2.5bil was part of the Chelsea takeover - Bohehly and co funded the rest. From what I believe the Saudi shareholding in clearlake is under 5% (3billion) so whilst not a small amount i think its a bit more of a coincidence that chelsea who always seem to sign famous, well paid, older players who quite a few are muslim as well would be on the saudi radar anyway and they have been done quickly as chelsea need them off the books by 30th June, where as other players the saudi's can take their time with. The Neves one is weird and I would guess Newcastle wont want him if they get tonali and wouldnt want the hassle give all they have been through with PIF and the league already.
