Just because he has signed a new contract doesn't mean he is off the market. Just means West Ham can make money from him leaving...
Wasn't one of the big selling points on Reid that we wouldn't have to give WHU any money to get him though?
Now that WHU have signed him to a long term contract you have to figure some of his appeal to the club goes down...
Oh obviously the big selling point was free transfer, and I've no doubt we will no longer be interested. I was just stating that, as with any player, there's no such thing as "off the market".
Look at how often we have tied a player to a new contract only to sell them within a year...
I agree, quick strong and agile unlike any of our centre backs!!Thought he was brilliant when we played West ham recently. Had Kane in his pocket. Would have been terrific on free, and certainly better than Fazio
Decent option on a free but i'm hardly slitting my wrists over not getting him. I like Dier very much and think he'll be a first teamer for seasons to come. We do need back up though as Fazio, Chiriches and Kaboul hardly inspire confidence and Veljkovic is still very young.
With you on Dier.
Didn't Trix ITK say he was in the bag for the summer along with Ings?
He has signed a new deal. It's been officially announced.It is a real shame if he signs a new deal and stays at West Ham as he would have been a no thrills signing who would have offered us a lot.
If we cannot get him in I would get rid of Chirches and Kaboul and just promote Carter-Vickers as the lad is class. I would also be open to replacing Fazio with someone more mobile
