looks like he's off West Ham have put in a bid to sign Sunderland midfielder Didier Ndong, with talks between the two clubs ongoing.
That's not good news. There were many players we wouldn't have missed much but he wasn't one of them. Hope it falls through.
20m plus or no sale. If drinkwater is a 30m Cm at close to 30 surely he's worth at least 20m having his career In front of him. Maybe this is what Moyes meant by "better value options" when taking about Mvilla. I know ow it's widely scoffed at but I think we were taken down intentionally from I side to streamline us as fast as possible.
We will not get anywhere near 13 million for him Another waste of money However I quite like him and he could do a job for us Never the less he will go
Our best mid field player by a country mile, and that's why he will be off, only accept the bid if they agree to take Rodwell in a package.
Snodgrass in the package their side would be a better deal. I'm not Rodwell's biggest fan by any means, but in this league he can do a good job for us. When he's fit.
Beeb says that villa are sniffing around snodgrass on loan. Not sure we'd even get him in return for Ndong
We should be demanding significant profit and play the Premier League at it's own game. Still think M'Vila would have been the best money we'd have spent in a long time.
Well he was our stand out performer last night, can we afford to let him go? Yes Snodgrass would sweeten the blow but this kid covered every blade of grass last night and I'd worry that Cattermole and Snodgrass would leave us short of that type of midfield energy which is essential in this league.
The only thing missing from N'Dongs game is a goal or two, add this to his input, and the sky's the limit, will the asset stripping continue, or are we going to hold out for serious money, time will tell.
I see no reason why we couldn't get our money back I don't think he's one that we are actively looking to offload, so West Ham need to entice us
Play them at their own game - £25m or don't bother sending the offer. Not for one minute saying he's worth that but we need to be more ruthless in the market and I think Bain has the balls to do it.
Echo are saying there's been no bid. Just sounds like the usual press speculation as West Ham don't seem to be getting anywhere with their pursuit of William Carvalho. "West Ham United are keeping tabs on Sunderland midfielder Didier Ndong - but the Echo understands there has not been a bid lodged.Reports in France had claimed the Hammers had gone as far as making a bid but we understand that is not the case and there has been no contact between the clubs."
