We're not signing Rice. May as well put that one to bed right away.

 

I do find these type of links tiresome tbh, same goes with the other lad Osinhem. When the world's most glamorous and richest clubs are fighting for them, we have to accept we are not there yet, at least not with FFP hurdles stacked in our path.

 

The good news is we have tremendous leadership and coaching at the club, so we are in a position to buy potential or similar players and make them look BETTER as a collective than the individual superstars we are talking about. Again, just reference the same superstars when they are playing for England.

Being in London can be good for footballing reasons. Less pressure day to day is better for some players. 

Yes, it means they can stay out of the limelight until they decide to become a TV presenter on prime time BBC1.

£42m looks like a bargain for this lad though.

 

Pretty sure at least one Priveleged 6 club has been linked to him, Man U I think.

Not saying in terms of natural talent that Bellingham isn't noticeably better but I do think there's more to Rice than he's been able to show in a pretty average & back foot playing West Ham team.

I rate Rice highly for sure, but Bellingham is heading for the very top.

He’s going to sign for them in July. The Glazers will be licking their lips at commercialising him. Had to do his Korean National service during the summer though.

Thauvin didn't even want to come here IIRC, we just filled his bank account so full that he couldn't say no. 

Same with Luque. Fool’s errand chucking money at players not convinced about coming in the first place.

Watched the Nicholas Anelka dot. They said he liked London because he could be close to anonymous. 

Not disagreeing with that at all.


Just referring to those players (well alright I’m only talking about one) who say they wanted to be anonymous then later place themselves in one of the least anonymous roles imaginable.

Why don't you just fuck off to London if you love it so much, Deuce?

 

If that even is your real name.


You’ll never catch me in London, pure shithole.

The issue with Adam’s is that he doesn’t offer any real improvement on the shortcomings of Longstaff, which is surely what we should be looking for in a first team replacement in his position.

 

Adams is a 6, and not an 8. I was very impressed with him prior to his injury.

 

He is incredibly quick, athletic and aggressive in his pressing and tackling and the guy's energy levels never dropped. What was most surprising about him though, was how decent he was with the ball. He got on the ball loads and was very good at progressing it with shorter passes in between the lines, to the players ahead of him.

 

Someone is going to get a steal there when they pick him up. Think because he's been injured for a while, he's kind of been forgotten about. He looked a heck of a player IMO.

 

Would not be surprised if Liverpool casually grab him somewhere in the middle of the summer and it is hardly talked about, and then when the season starts a lot of fans will be fuming.

Napoli have allegedly offered Kim Min-Jae a new deal, to remove the much talked about clause from his contract.

Just read a thread on him, seems his played left sided CB all season.

He will be picking up a lot of the leg work that Longstaff does though as Bruno doesn’t have the engine to press at that high of a tempo from a more advanced position, unless we are changing formation to go with the double pivot of Bruno and Adams?

 

We should be looking to sign a back up to Bruno and a better version of Longstaff that offers all of the work but more ability in the final third.
