Kimbo Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Bowen has a contract until 2030, supposedly on around £120k per week. I wouldn’t surprised if the total package of transfer fee and wages went over £100m, and that’s for someone turning 28 this year. Not happening.

Sibierski Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Said it other week, rather we signed Hutchinson from Chelsea then Madueke. Hutchinson looks every bit the player that’s ready for the next step. Feel he’ll have a higher ceiling long term. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ9 Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 There’s no value in Bowen, so doubt we will go there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why he’s even discussed. Just had a second bairn not that long ago to Mr West Ham’s daughter. He ain’t moving from London now unless we did something we never do and that’s to over pay on a player plus his wages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattypnufc Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 If he didn't love an Accy, he's definitely worth the price we paid based off his time at Milan alone, without his age/potential even being taken into account. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezzle Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 As much as some wanna see us burn I'm genuinely excited to see him and Bruno now he's fully up to speed. 1/2 good signings on top of everyone back will be great Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Tonali seemed like a bit of a bargain at the time compared to what other midfielders were going for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah hope we keep an eye on some of the prospects that have been killing it in the wankership last season.

Just playing devil’s advocate here but would you have said Ruben Loftus-Cheek is worth 55m? Because he’s outperformed Tonali at Milan and looks like a star in his first season there. I think people are underestimating how poor Seria A is in comparison to the Premier League (in general). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 (edited) 3 hours ago, joeyt said: If it was a straight choice between Bowen and Mbeumo who would you prefer? Tough one. Bowen’s more of a goal threat (though Mbeumo does score, too), but several years older than Mbeumo. Bowen also the more expensive of the two. Be happy with either, because both would be upgrades.

Decky Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 4 hours ago, SUPERTOON said: 85 million release clause so we can rule that out. Bowen would cost a massive amount as well. I'd be shocked if West Ham didn't push for at least £70m for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italian football seems to be stuck in the previous century. Their league doesn't seem to be very multicultural, or if it is, it's not reflected in their national team. That doesn't necessarily make it poorer, but the national side isn't great at the moment, so can only imagine the Italian league isn't all that either.
