If it's the Gomes from Valencia, that'd be something maybe to stoke the fires. This last 18 months (I think) or so at Barca don't reflect on him well.I think he'd be a good signing but I also watch a fuck tonne of La Liga outside of the big 2 so witnessed enough of his time at Valencia to know there's a good player there who's just not made the most of a big move (comparisons with Zaha anyone?).
And yes, totally agreed with you on Toby-Martial.
The medical is in Barcelona with Yerry Mina.At least he's rumoured to be in England
It's Gomes.
Not first choice by any means, but think we could do worse than him.It's Gomes.
I thought Gomes was out for 2-3 months...?
I would not mind Mario, he is actually been decent before and nobody at west ham last year really looked good. How would you with tactical genius Moyes in charge. Overall we don't need much unless its a mega signing to actually improve the first 11 which is a tough one and i don't think Grealish is worth all the hassle either. He would have so much competition he would spend most of his time on the bench.
I think some of you lot want signings for the sake of it.
Just over 4 hours to go... ITK done its usual swing from positive in the morning to try not slit your wrist updates over lunch. I hope it swings back to positive in the next four hours for all our sakes. What a window this has been? Never experienced anything so depressing.
Don't watch the one of him at Barcelona where he's so awful that Messi, Suarez, Busquets & co are visibly despairing every time he gets the ballRight, time to power up YouTube and watch some old Valencia clips in an attempt convince myself this was our masterplan all along.
If we were absolute about the player we likely would make it permanent. From what Herc said, I’d assume it’s players we’re not certain of. With the clauses, we’d be set to buy them if we play them (meaning they worked out). Quite disappointing.Possibly, but does make you wonder what the point is of the loan in the other case. Might as well just make it permanent.
Only reason I can think of is to get around FFP somehow like PSG did, but can't see how that could apply to us.
