West Ham Thoughts

West Ham Thoughts  πŸ€”

You have to wonder who decides what players we need in transfer windows?
Being linked with Tottenham 3rd choice keeper and Chelsea's injured 2nd choice makes no sense while we already have 11 keepers on the books, and Areola has been really good this season in front of an awful defence.

Surely a Dawson style defender is needed, Mavrapanos and Todibo have good moments but keep switching off.
Julio sent back to Brighton after starting just one game all season, surely better than Kilman who has been pretty useless.

Players in so far - Tatty looks like a trier but a fit Wilson seems like a better option, Pablo is a bit raw but might improve?
Lamadrid hasn't played for 3 months so no idea if he's going to add anything.
Traore might be a good signing for £1m, but his best position is where Bowen plays so don't think he'll start many games unless they push Bowen into the middle which is a waste.

No idea what the story was with Ward Prowse, Nuno really didn't like him? must have been something that happened at Forest last season.
Loaning him to Burnley doesn't make much sense unless he really is now that bad that he thinks he will harm Burnley.

Has been obvious for a while that Paqueta didn't want to be here, so hopefully they will take the money, as he'll be worthless if we drop.

Fullkrug was a bad signing, interested to see if he stays fit at Milan and we might get some money back.

Sensible that Rodrigues has gone, World Cup winner limited to 3 starts and a few substitute minutes, shouldn't have loaned Alvarez out.

Shame that Earthy and Marshall have been loaned out again, although at least they will get game time which wasn't really happening for us.

I know Nuno has given game time to some of the youngsters like Scarles, Mayers and Kante, but as the U-21's are having another great season surely players like Adiele, Ajala, Fearon, Orford, Golambeckis, Briggs etc might be better options than over priced untried imports that they seem to be looking at?

Have to dream we can get something at Chelsea, then Burnley away, Man U and Bournemouth at home. Need at least 9 points to be in with a chance of staying up  πŸ™„
