About 20 years too old for us
Is he in the last year of his contract though?
If so , that might open the door ever so slightly
He says as he arranges his neon hair into three separate spikes in opposite directions
The point is that pretty much every source at the time and since said it was £50m

Ffs eze goes straight into our starting 11. Can you not see that! He is miles better than any of left sided forwards. Also can play the 10. Why we are interested in quality player gawd knows. Are you happy with our left sided options. Not to labor the point but I’d much rather have eze out there than players like Wilson , tel, Johnson , Richi etc.What if Frank doesn't see that position and needing reinforcement?
Clearly we need a positional player such as Kudus more than Eze?
What's the point in spending money on the latest shiny player, if he's surplus to positional requirement?
The waste of money on unproven players is our downfall. For what we have wasted we could easily have got a Simmons or eze in.But why would we buy another 10... we have 2... and Donley coming through... we need a RW.. i agree on the striker front we need one a younger high potential one ideally and we definitely need a 6 in a different mould to what we have. If we can get Simmons I would personally go for him, Id sell a bunch of players to fund it move Tel to back up Striker and have Him and Odobert LW and also Simmons rotating with Maddison at 10 until Kulu is fully fit and then sell Son, Solomon and richie etc
We also need a lot of outs annoyingly.
We just have usual people justifying a transfer like we had for Werner Solanke Tel etc. ideally we should get both. However we have decided to waste our money elsewhere. Both are needed and play diff roles. However we can only go for one and then make do and hope the ones which some say ‘there is a player in there’ come good. Mess! For a top 6 club and one of the richest.Come on. Kudus being a better signing than Eze is a ridiculous take.
So you don’t think we wasted what £40 M on Tel?Only if you're bounded by glitzy signings and don't take into account the where he actually fits in but yeah go ahead and urge the club to waste money I guess...![]()
Yeah much more of a boast than telling use he took us from 8 to 5 in his first season. He made such a big deal about that but kept scthum about 5 to 17.If Frank goes from 17th to 5th with this squad while playing Champions League in midweek he's a goddamn hero.
I wanted him from Ajax but we got Johnson for more money. Still a quality player. However it seems as if we are going for him now only bcos something has fucked up with EzE deal. A top club would go out and get both and get on with it.I watched him in his first season as he was someone I had heard a lot about from
Ajax. He was one of the most exciting players in the league, scored some incredible goals and was a constant threat whenever I saw west ham
play. Even if you disregard his europa league games he put up good numbers in the prem in a team which don’t see a lot of the ball.
People pretending kudos wasn’t one of the most talked about and hyped players at the end of last season is so disingenuous.
The Antoine Robinson bandwagon leaves the station.Need more links to a great 6. I'd personally love to get Hjulmand (If he adds Calvin pissing to that Woolwich tattoo of his).
Hjulmand
Xavi Simons
Antonee Robinson
Kudus
In that order and call it a day
Make it happen![]()
Bugger
i think he still can come goodOf all of your laughable troll bullshit, constantly pointing out that the fanbase always treats every target as essential and worth paying any sum to close the deal on is the one I have the most patience for since it's so undeniably true and it is a useful corrective to look back and be like "actually just paying up for Saido Berahino would have been a fucking disaster".
Would rather we spent £25-30m on a Dibling or McAtee than £45-50m on Kudus, or Elliot at close to Kudus dough.
Back to back U21 Euro Champs, shows now is a time there is an abundance of young players with high potential who are English league(s) weathered already.
Kinda interesting how some fans will simultaneously be like ‘the squad depth is too weak!’ (which it is) but also push back on any possible transfer targets that don’t obviously walk into the starting 11. The best sides just sign players and let the manager and their form figure it out.Ffs eze goes straight into our starting 11. Can you not see that! He is miles better than any of left sided forwards. Also can play the 10. Why we are interested in quality player gawd knows. Are you happy with our left sided options.
