Vesper

you are out over your skis with Kudus not saying he is a world beater, but he would deffo aid us NOW Barcola may well end up a world class player or he may end up average that is the gamble you take with young players I would love to have either or both compared to some of the dross I have seen tossed out here in the past as players we should pounce on

anyone mocking Caicedo already is a fucking fool who literally knows fuckall about football

West Ham target Ajax’s Mohammed Kudus as part of bumper double deal East London club also interested in Sevilla's Youssef En-Nesyri as they look to strengthen attacking options https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2023/08/23/west-ham-transfer-ajax-mohammed-kudus-youssef-en-nesyri/ West Ham United remain in talks to sign Mohammed Kudus, despite having two bids rejected for the Ajax midfielder, and are also hoping to sign Sevilla striker Youssef En-Nesyri. The east London club are working hard to strengthen their attacking options in the final days of the transfer window and are keen to add both Kudus and En-Nesyri to their squad. Their second bid for Kudus, worth in the region of around £35 million, was turned down by Ajax earlier this week but negotiations are still ongoing between the two clubs. Kudus appeared to be close to joining Brighton earlier this summer but the move stalled due to issues with the player’s personal terms. A Ghana international, who can play on the wing or as an attacking midfielder, Kudus is regarded as one of the European game’s most exciting young talents. The 23-year-old scored 18 goals in 42 appearances for Ajax last season and has also been the subject of interest from Chelsea this summer. En-Nesyri has been a long-term target for West Ham, who first tried to sign the striker in January 2021. It is believed that Sevilla could be open to selling the 26-year-old, who starred for Morocco in last year’s World Cup and struck 18 goals in 48 appearances for Sevilla last season. En-Nesyri scored with a towering header against Manchester City in last week’s Uefa Super Cup and also headed a memorable winner against Portugal at the World Cup in Qatar. He is reported to have jumped to a height of 2.78 metres (9.1ft) to score the goal against Portugal. If a deal can be agreed with Sevilla, En-Nesyri would help to fill the void left by the departure from West Ham of Gianluca Scamacca, who joined Atalanta for around £20 million only a year after arriving in the Premier League. After selling Declan Rice to Arsenal in a deal that could be worth £105 million, West Ham have so far invested around £85 million in three new signings: Edson Álvarez from Ajax (£35 million), James Ward-Prowse from Southampton (£30 million) and Konstantinos Mavropanos from Stuttgart (around £20 million). Mavropanos previously played for Arsenal in the Premier League and it is understood that the north London club will receive around 10 per cent of the fee paid by West Ham to Stuttgart.

other than knee injury a couple of years ago, that he has overcome to my satisfaction his main issues for years were hamstring related injuries he had surgery on it in Finland, performed by one of the top specialists on the planet, Dr. Lasse Lempainen (who also sorted his knee that I mentioned above), and has now passed a very rigorous PSG physical I am not saying he was the biggest lock to succeed on that list, but when healthy he is such a massive threat creative wise we can all now watch him at PSG and see how he holds up

they said €40m for ages and yes, they are fucking playing games now fuck them

KK was just an rookie mistake, and we did not lose that much money (thank fuck) I am sure the fact that Thiago was far older and is still near WC played a role and Auba did not cost much, and was just another gamble on an older, ex WC player (like KK), auba was a bit of a monster at Barca for a nice spell, so easy to see why be bought him so fine there, easy to forgive those 2 (at least their is for me) BUT these 2: Marc Cucurella (I NEVER rated him, he always look shit or basically bog standard to me) Wesley Fofana (NEVER BUY a massively injured player until they have two full seasons at the level they were at (or better) before the injury were just INSANELY stupid, crazy expensive buys plus potentially (not remotely there yet to the point where I call him a perma bust) Mykhaylo Mudryk combine that with Rom buy under Roman and those 3 (or 4, if Muddy does end up a bust) are just KILLING is now plus the Tchou pass we should ABSOLUTELY have Osimhen (from Lille or even after either of his first two seasons at Napoli) Tchou (2021 summer disaster pass/refusal to buy) Ousmane Dembélé (so many times we could have signed him from Barca, grrrr) Nuno Mendes (only cost PSG a £32.5m transfer fee, after a £6m loan fee) and Skriniar on our team NOW none of them would have cost outrageous money at all if we bought them when I was saying to buy them over the past several years (and we deffo had the money to do so, look at the insane amounts we shit away on others I said do not buy)

Brighton is now a massive hardball playing team when it comes to transfers and it seems to be working for them I do not think they are losing one wink of sleep over the Kudus deal blowing up, not one they have their template and they refuse to deviate from it hats off to them (grudgingly, as they have fucked us 6 ways to Sunday, and we also are to blame for a lot of it, they saw a mark in Boehly and played him like a fiddle)

I am (obviously) and have been pushing hard for Kudus (especially now with the injuries) but not buying him will not gut me like our passing on Tchou did that fucking did me in 😔

it would be one of the biggest miracles in the past 30 or 40 years if that exact squad at present stays up surely they add some quality (or maybe not, maybe they will just hoard the promotion money and try to become a permanent decent Championship side)

other than 3 GKers they are also pretty young they only have 2 outfield players over 29 years old and neither are ancient

absolutely a must win losing to them would be a disaster their entire team is valued at only £63m they have no player valued at even £8m

Chelsea https://thedailybriefing.io/i/136327338/Chelsea Chelsea like Brennan Johnson but he’s not a priority - full details here. There have been reports of some inside being Chelsea being frustrated by Hall’s departure - more info on that here. Chelsea remain desperate to sell Romelu Lukaku - more from Ben Jacobs here. Chelsea will complete Djordje Petrovic deal this week, an agreement in place as revealed yesterday. Deivid Washington already completed medical tests at Chelsea — it’s about final documents, formal steps then the Brazilian striker will be unveiled as a new Chelsea player. Santos will receive €16m fixed fee plus €4m add-ons. Carney Chukwuemeka sustained an injury to his left knee — and he already underwent surgery. Chelsea expect Carney to be our for six weeks.

I would have rather sold Maatsen than Hall to be honest still want to sell Maatsen and most definitely that fraud CuCu (if he goes, we will liekly have to hold onto Maatsen for the season, unless we shockingly buy a LB in the next 10 days, which i very much doubt we do) list of the acceptable and actually available ones is pretty short no way we can go for either of my only 2 true targets (Alphonso Davies or Nuno Mendes,) the same for Theo Hernández (and I do not rate hus defence) so that leaves (and even some of these would be crazy hard pulls now) Federico Dimarco Pervis Estupiñán (lol, Brighton) José Gayà Rayan Aït-Nouri Caio Henrique Mathías Olivera David Raum Borna Sosa Quilindschy Hartman

depend if we buy another CF this window (10 days left)

FAR too early to say that 2 official games is ludicrously too short a duration to condemn a footballer as being not good enough

all the more reason to cash in (he is pure profit as well)

I am so stressed out. 😢

Sorry but this is revisionism. Kante was perpetually injured after we won the CL. We should have sold him that summer and bought Tchouameni, like I was begging the team to do. We would have had Tchouameni plus a net £20m or so. I was just beside myself when we did neither.

Wrong poster.

Of course he lacks both, but if you look at my initial post, I said he lacks 'Somthing that cannot be taught' Techical skills can be taught and/or improved via instruction.

Its more than just that. He lacks insight and spatial awareness. I am not overthinking, I am observant and I am simply aporying the most basic of analytic skills. Gallagher could have double the technical ability but that doesn't remove headless chicken mode.
