Summer Transfer Misery and Recriminations.

If we can manage to dump Walcott. Personally i would try for Gylfi Siggurdson of Swansea. He fulfils the Role, of Rosicky/Cazorla too. Forget that he was once a Spud. If Wenger wants to wait on Welbeck then get Defoe in as a filler, forget he was a Spud too. He was also a Hammer at one time. People change.

you're not that global, m8

WUMger should be all over Kante, especially if he has the release clause.

He might have signed him in January then! And offered for Vardy.....if nothing else but to unsettle him!

Globalgoonie's having a laugh about Sigurdsson and Defoe though.....surely!

And what is the big deal about Morata?

lol Defoe.

What is this 2003 back on 606?

Yeah, I don't get it either [about Morata]? Admittedly I'm only going off YT clips, but, dare I say, I thought he looked pretty boring? Are we missing something?

West Ham had a £31m bid for Lacazette turned down - Sky Sports

A club showing ambition

Lacazette is an average striker, i watch the French league and he is a frustrating player. Still young though so i guess Bilic can still fix him.

GLADBACH CONFIRM XHAKA OFFER

This deal seems as though it could be reaching its conclusion, but where will Granit Xhaka end up?

He has been strongly linked with Arsenal and his club, Borussia Monchengladbach, have confirmed an offer has been received.

"Sporting director Max Eberl has confirmed that there has been a specific offer for the Swiss midfielder," said a statement posted on their official website.

"An agreement with the interested club is still pending, however.

We should name this thread "Suicide Watch", this place will be in meltdown come the end of the summer when Wenger is rummaging around the bargain bucket in Ligue Two looking for backup strikers to Giroud.

Interesting observation. I wonder if people would have considered Mahrez and Kante as "bargain bucket" occupants before this season? It seems to me that there are still plenty of good players in the bargain bucket.

More likely, it is a club that knows it has a lot of money and needs to placate its fan base. [An alternative, more conspiratorial view is that West Ham knew that the bid would be rejected but made it anyway in order to suggest that it is an ambitious club.]
