The Telegraph understand Spurs are ready to match Winston Reid's demands in order to sign him ahead of Arsenal. #THFC

Reid is reportedly demanding 60,000 a week, a £1M signing on fee and to join his new club in the summer with Spurs happy to oblige. #THFC

With Big Sam saying West Ham are skint, we should try and negotiate a cheap Jan deal for him if we can find someone stupid enough to meet our asking price for Kaboul.

Reid is a player whose performances I've never really paid too much attention to (same of most Wham players tbh). How is his pace? Decent fit as partner to one or both of Verts and Fazio?

On an Arsenal forum, he's described as strong, quick thinker and fast. Another forum says his main negative is poor passing.

But teams within the same league as West Ham are not allowed to talk to Reid yet so this must be bullshiiiiieeeeeet.

He's a proper defender IMO. I couldn't give two fucks what he's like on the ball really. We already have a very good ball playing CB in Vertonghen.

He's quick, strong and actually very agile for a CB - i'd say he's one of the most agile CB's I've seen. He's quick on the turn as a result and has a quick change of direction.

Allardyce said that he thought someone must have contacted him, hence his decision not to sign the contract. Might have been us...;)

Fucking hell. What is it with this window. Ings, Reid, McCarthy... it's like we are back in the nineties and signing Armstrong, Parry and Leonardson.

Get a fucking grip people.

A West ham college of mine has said for months(before he looked like he was going to leave) that he is good but lacks concentration and ideally needs a leader next to him to guide him.

We need a leader then

Ings and McCarthy are good players - quite comparable to Rodriguez and Schneiderlin

Reid however is a bit of a Razor Ruddock or Jason Cundy.

Reid is decent. Loves a tackle and wins all his headers. A good leader as well. Great attributed for a centre half. West ham fans are gutted he is leaving which speaks volumes

Is this like when we bought Leonardson and everyone said he was the best player in the world without the ball ?
