Many will say its the same old crap because hes a young lad but clearly hes a great prospect. West Ham wanted to keep him but he wants to go for first team opportunities. Just because we've had young lads who it hasnt happened for yet doesnt mean any signing of a young player is a waste.
He’s fine as long as he’s not the only forward brung in. I’d love some experience up top but I’m sick of banging on about it
Nowt wrong with bringing propects in at all, do need some first team players who are ready to make an impact straight away though. The goals need to come from somewhere next year.
Saudi Pro League chief claims Jordan Henderson 'damaged on a personal level' by Al-Ettifaq transfer fiasco after seeing Ajax midfielder dropped from England squad (msn.com)
If Henderson wants to come back into English football I think Clubs would avoid signing him because of this damaging baggage he now has following his Saudi move. If he were to comeback to English football we should be serious contenders for him because, unlike the other Clubs, we would welcome one of our own back. We do have some on here who don’t want to forgive him but other Clubs will have far more who are against him.
we have no idea why he chose to go over there and being honest it has nowt to do with any of us, i honestly cannot remember how i felt about it as i was trying to see it from both sides. currently, we see 'the middle east' buying a lot of clubs and putting a lot of money into the worlds most popular sports yet fans have never walked away, sponsors have never removed themselves from the clubs and, in the main, people are more than happy to accept the money... i am pretty certain they will gain more and more in the sports world. so if hendo wants to return here and takes a big wage drop to do so i am happy to have him back.
No chance West Ham do a reasonable deal for him (Mubama) and I find that the way some of these tribunal fees are set up (more fees owed based on appearances and accomplishments), they impede the player from developing because it costs the club to play the player. Personally I wouldn't pay more than £1.5m for this particular player, he has a good record at u21 level, but many players who do end up dropping out of the game by 24.
I'd love him back, he would be a game changer for us with such a young squad, also I didn't care about him moving to Saudi for a pay day.
This Divin Mubama has a lot of potential like, and seems to be streets ahead of the likes of Hemir and Mayenda too. I think he has a high chance of performing here. He got 26 goals in all comps last season and some of his goals in these videos (including two hat-tricks and a goal against spurs and a goal in the UEFA conference league) look very promising.
