    At this rate we have more people ‘with potential to break into the first team’ than players we have in the first team.

    I don’t. I remember a 17yr old Chalobah though.

    Injured now of course.

    Wow 17! Makes it even more impressive.

    Spoke on SSN and said he heard about our interest a week ago and was waiting to see our plans for him as he wants a chance to play. We said everything he needed to hear and that was that.

    As a player he said he looks to do things people aren't expecting and be exciting but that he also works hard and plays for the team.

    Clever bit of business by the club and, in this instance, a signing I'd prefer to see instead of a Livermore/Arter.

    Meh! Pre-Dictator

    Bit I liked was when he said he's always followed Watford ever since he saw us in the fa cup final.

    The kid has looked at Richarlison and figured that if he can run really fast with the ball down blind alleys for a few games, blaze sitters over the crossbar and head the ball into orbit, he might find himself on the radar of a club like Everton.

    Er... he’s 18. So he doesn’t actually know which club he has joined?

    Diego Polenta still a free agent if we want to go full middle classes on this.

    If he's a striker, I'm in

    If he's not a striker, but is prepared to "give it a go upfront", I'm in.
     
  13. I think I'll stay working class - is Tiago Tapioca still a free agent?

    Clive_ofthe_Kremlin Squad Player

    It'll be interesting to see whether he's on the bench tomorrow.

    His interviews all highlight that he believes himself ready and wants first team football. Perhaps that was a factor in him coming here...

    If that earns us £40m in 12 months then I’m in

    If he’s not and has less goals per game than Doyley but his first touch doesn’t go 30 yards, I’m in

    How many West Ham fans have actually seen him play?

    Same as the number of WFC fans who will see him over the next 3 years probably :)

    I've seen plenty of WH responses suggesting they think they've lost a real talent. I'd rather this lad for £1m than Felipe Anderson for £35m or whatever they spent on him

    Interview with him on the club's Youtube channel. Appears to have a good attitude. Likes to play as either an 8 or a 10.

    They don't even need to give it a go to get in our front line.

    Is that the return of the word whoosh to this forum?
     
  28. Keighley

    I wondered that and originally drafted the post that way. But not having heard the interview, I wasn't certain whether Meh was whooshing us, or the kid was just dumb. I don't usually have Meh down as a whoosher.

    I'll be charitable to Mr Quinoa and view it as a whoosh.

    West Ham are perennially badly run. They’ve spent a ton of money this window but it would be a classic West Ham thing to do to blow a load of money on flashy players and let one go from under their noses for next to nothing. Here’s hoping anyway.

    Sullivan is an old Fullerian. He knows what he is doing.

    This kid will not take up a place in the final 25 as he is under 21, but it looks like he is being seen as a first team squad player as he has been given a squad number, so it looks like we might have picked up a real gem?

    As soon as I love her it's been too long
    Talks of future with you makes me I'll
    Swallow my sugar kiss, and eat it alone
    Hearts collide and smash any dreams of love
