    Hm ok, post-match he seemed to suggest otherwise.

    The highlighted bit is bollocks. And even so when he pings it to Elmo to run onto it still generates a good Attack, in fact probably the only way we managed to attack at all last season.

    £10m would be a good price, obviously that's just a number pulled out of my arse and we've no idea what it would actually be. My worry is that I can't think of anyone to replace him with, who can offer a similar standard of passing from midfield. Maybe a number 10 to play higher up the pitch but that then means playing with only one striker or the dreaded and dour 5 at the back.

    I don't think anyone would buy him off the back of one performance at any level, more like about 10 solid years at the highest level of the game. Professionals know all about him and despite what many on here like to say about him he's easily premier league standard.

    I'm guessing his release clause is high, as I'm surprised he's still here.

    You're out of touch, Huddlestone currently looks very trim.

    Yeah, you'd have thought that C5 would have given it some effort, instead it looks like they've just grabbed a couple of presenters, any presenters, along with a crowd of mongs wearing football shirts, put them together and hoped that, along with a few mixed up highlights, they'd have a success on their hands.

    Rubbish C5.

    For such a stats man, that's a shocker. Gray has 1 goal every 42 minutes this season, not 1 every 27.

    Aluko could be a good CAM for us, not the pressure of being a striker, but can use his pace and footwork to unlock defences.

    But then he'd need to pass to others on a regular basis. Nah.

    Also:

    Marinus Dijkhuizen says to FoxSportsNL that Hull is bidding on a #brentfordfc striker and he will likely go. Haller is an option..

    Totally agree with you on that one. Particularly when someone comes and poaches a player on the last day and then panic-buy mode kicks in.

    There's no way West Ham will be in for Huddlestone after the debut performance of Reece Oxford V Arsenal aged 16 and 200 odd days.

    He was outstanding and he had the highest pass completion of any midfielder on the pitch - I'm sure the commentators said 95%. This lad will go right to the very top - he was that good.
