Depay is a great talent, and would be a great signing for us, however he's got a bad attitude and would be a bit of a gamble. I got the impression that we were only interested in him because of Koeman.

This would be good !

K,Billy hasn't been on here since the 14th July....just after Pelle went to China!

Chin up Glasgow.

Also one of the highest rated youngsters in the world....they have money to gamble on players like that.

You're weird.

Olumola was on the bench at the end of last season, Alfie Jones also been involved a few times IIRC.

Never heard of him.

Not often I'm ITK!

Such a lot of money...don't see where he fits in for West Ham.they have loads of second strikers/#10's Tore Payet Feghouli Payet Ayew Antonio Lanzini Valencia Not bad bearing in mind we have Redmond, Davis and Tadic

Aren't Arsenal after Jonny Evans?!

Can see them going after loads of players and them all rejecting them, then throwing loads of money at it late in the window...!

Sounds like a player like Mane would be perfect for the diamond point ! Personally I think we lose a lot of Tadic's ability when he's stuck in the middle.

Don't think he'd pass the personality test....

Absolutely no chance would we. They'd be off straight away.

The silence from the club and Jose certainly isn't helping.....!

Can anyone comment on the pressing of the oppo's full backs....who is doing this? From what I've read, it seems to be the strikers who press the full backs which leaves us in almost a 4-6-0 formation when we don't have the ball? Also, when we win the ball back, do we turn straight back into the diamond with the two back up top, or are they playing really far apart? I would assume, that for this to work, we need the three most forward players to be very close together or we'll just become isolated and picked off.

Seen similar comments from various people, does seem a strange system to play. Will wait and see before i criticise but I'm not convinced from what I have seen (very little!) Goals and creativity seem to be the main worry.

He'll be on way more than that, probably closer to £80k I would imagine. Would have thought he would have been on £30k/40k at Saints.

Be interesting to see if we have a poor few games at the start of the season, whether we will revert back to 4-3-3. Seems a big ask to get a new manager to come in, lost a few of our best players, change formation, and still be successful....

What I would pick: ------------Forster Cedric Yoshida VVD Targett -------Romeu--Hojbjerg------ Redmond----Davis------Tadic -------------Long-------------- What I think he'll go with.... ------------Forster Cedric Yoshida VVD Targett ------------Romeu----------- -------Hojbjerg-Davis -------------Tadic --------Redmond--Long--------------

Feel that the club should have picked a manager to fit the clubs philosophy, 4-3-3... Above formation would work fine and mean the players aren't trying to learn a new system. I don't think the diamond works in the Prem.....we shall see.

11286-4509

All fart no sh!t philosophy? We shall see, I've got no problem with us dominating as long as we're winning games too and not being hit on the counter and conceding everytime ala Adkins Prem era.

Think so, so if we're seeded fourth, then we'll have three teams with a higher coefficient than us (better teams). If we're seeded third, then we could get a crap team in our group...basically.
