    I'd be gutted if he left, we have yet to see the best of him and it would be madness to sell him now.

    Spot on. If we can get what we paid for him then it'll be a good deal.

    Yeah but that tweet was roundly ridiculed. No way he'd drop out of Prem now

    Loan him to Leeds for the season and ask for a discount off Byram. When he comes back we'll get money for him anyway... make the ****er suffer.

    I'd take that tbh, he's just as likely to have a drop in form as easily as he found it.

    If theyve offered £12m we are laughing and should bite ttheir hands off.

    That + the Borini money and we could bring in 4 players straight into the first team

    I believe he's going to become a top class player, if we do sell him I'd like to think we'd put a sell on clause.

    I would like to keep him, but if he wants too much, there's not much we can do. I'd sell for £15m if we can't agree a new deal

    Amount unknown

    West Ham have made a bid for Sunderland striker Connor Wickham, according to Sky sources.

    The 21-year-old had a superb end to last season, scoring five goals in nine games for the Black Cats to help the club avoid relegation from the Premier League.

    This came after the striker had spent a successful loan spell in the Championship with Sheffield Wednesday, where he scored eight goals in 11 games, and then a less impressive temporary stint at Leeds, during which he failed to score in five appearances.

    West Ham are in need of a target man following the ankle injury to Andy Carroll, who is expected to be out until at least December.

    The size of the Hammers&#8217; bid for Wickham is, as yet, unknown.

    Wickham began his career with Ipswich and joined Sunderland for £8m in June 2011.

    Apart from 4 games last season what has he done to prove that he is a top class player? He's a risk and a risk that will keep getting riskier the longer we keep him. I honestly think we should play him for the 3 games up until the end of the transfer window, see how he goes and then sell him if he's s**t. Wait again, no sell him now.. if he is **** we wont have much of a strike force.

    If we are offered 12m now we'd be daft not to take it.
