Surely Tammy has to stay if Borja goes out? 

Why? Lukaku, if signed, will already play more minutes than Tammy+Giroud combined under Tuchel.

If Lukaku is injured or rotated, there is still Havertz and Werner who can play instead and that means more minutes will open up for the likes of Pulisic and Ziyech. If anything, I'd say there's still one player too many for everyone to be fully happy with their roles.

If the guy is right, Zouma.

So Zouma wants to stay and play second fiddle to the likes of Rudiger Christensen and co...let him go Sevilla then as part of Kounde deal...

Zouma thinks he’s too big for WH.

I don't think that's true. Earlier reports have all said Zouma would be happy to join West Ham, but perhaps they just couldn't offer him a good enough contract or something.

No Koundé then. Zouma thinks he’s too big for WH.

Too big? In all seriousness, why would anyone leave a club you just won a CL at to play for West Ham? When your in your prime years essentially?

If he wants to stay and fight for his place/be a second choice, fair enough. He has his limitations but he’s not the worst option to have and we aren’t exactly poor/short defensively either so him remaining hardly scuppers any urgent needs. 

I mean are we urgently needing a CB? Spending 80m on someone who for all we know might sit on the bench anyway considering how much Azpi improved at RCB and Rudiger at LCB when Tuchel came in would be a curious use of money. I mean is Kounde displacing any of those 2 and Thiago Silva immediately first game of the season in a back 3 which probably will be our shape again this season?

I get he’s a talented boy but theres more pressing needs ie someone to take the burden of Ngolo in central midfield and a top striker upfront are more urgently needed than a CB as it stands. Also someone to challenge Reece at RWB.

I mean, that’s all well and good from his perspective but by all accounts Koundé is an absolute priority for TT. Which means he has a very specific need for a CB of that profile and thinks he will be a key player.

Not delivering your manager a player he really wants because the 4th choice CB wants to stay doesn’t bode well.

Says on there Inter have decided to accept offer of €120M + 8M bonuses, and Inter have already begun searching for a replacement.

Not a done deal yet but looks like it should be completed in a matter of days.
