Kudus story seems to be building up a head of steam. I like it that he is an aggressive attacker, we don’t really have enough of those. I would prefer Eze though as he’s easily the better player, especially if the scum want him.

The price seems ridiculously high. £40m is probably about right as he doesn’t score or assist enough. If he doesn’t play then what is his attitude like if he isn’t playing every week I wonder?

Regarding Kudus everyone on here wanted a take on specialist.... he is exactly that.

One thing that did suprise me is he's actually a very accurate passer of the ball, for a winger in the 95 percentile that's pretty decent.

Also looking on dataMB his performances between the last 2 seasons at spammers is pretty similar apart from his G/A output

He's a versatile player but primarily a RW and I think that's why he may be preferred...with kulusevski being out for start of season.

He kinda makes sense, he does have the ability to pull out a worldie too but seems to lack consistency and a lot of west ham fans want him out.

I'm torn on him but he could be excellent under Thomas Frank.

Bowen plays on the right for them doesn’t he? Kudus to join the billion players who play on the left. Although I hark back to the days or right footed wingers on the right and left footed on the left. Makes be a footballing dinosaur I guess but having a player out wide who doesn’t have to check back onto his stronger foot every time rather than crossing instantly for runners in the middle seems to be the way forward now every manager wants to be Guardiola.

Wherever he goes next he will be outstanding. If it is the scum I’ll be doubly sick.

I agree.

Last seasn the palace chairman stated no club even made a call asking about his availability when everyone was linking him with us. He didn't even suit Ange's type of wide player as well.

After the Tel permanent signing it was clear that was going to be the same this season. He doesn't suit Frank's type of wide player as well.

I don't really care about that, I'm on about your snide comment about the 'Levy defence force' particularly when it came on the back of you criticising him saying that he wants to win the Prem, shows you that your emotional bias is hurting your inability to be objective or, consistent for once.

It's beyond tedious.

MLS is notoriously hard on fitness-challenged players (I wouldn't call Son that tbf) because the travel and weather is so brutal, and the all-time record transfer fee paid by an MLS club is 16M pounds.

Are we accepting a bid that low for Sonny? Why not just let him play out his deal at that kind of price?

Saudi would allow all parties to save their blushes here, and also has the virtue of a shorter flight to Seoul than all other options.

Bayern are looking for a left winger, just saying. They could do worse than trying to get Sonny back to Germany.

With Chelsea still interested, I wouldn’t count on this happening.

This is what he says which can be pulled apart pretty easily and seems to cover a lot of bases, it could even be argued it’s being leaked to get us to pony up if we want to read it that way. If the scum don’t want to pay the fee and if palace do get to play in the EL then I’m not 100% certain he leaves there, especially is Guehi goes too.

“One situation to keep an eye on is Woolwich and Eberechi Eze. The 27-year-old is among the options being considered as Mikel Arteta’s side seek a versatile attacker. No contact has yet been made with Crystal Palace, but serious consideration is being given to the idea at the Emirates. No other clubs have the same level of interest at the moment and he is not a player Tottenham Hotspur have been working to bring in. The England forward has a release clause in his contract, but Woolwich would be looking to do a deal at a lower price. It is unclear whether a sale would need to happen first to facilitate a move, but this would be separate to their pursuit of a striker and left winger. ”

Sometimes Bowen would play striker and kudus would go there, Yeah I get what you say.

To be honest he's played all across all the forward positions pretty much, but his best output is a RW.

He's actually played Centre midfield for Ajax a fair few times too

Rashford back at Utd and not moving, maybe Chavski get a more favourable deal on Garnacho, which then lets United wrap up Mbeumo.

Whenever dominos need to fall like that, I suspect agents call each other and steer things in the direction they want.

If we’re prepared to pay 60m, I guess we can get Kudus done this time.

But then again, I know literally fuck all so there is that
