    Think the last link was Fabrice Hawkins saying Bournemouth weren't signing him and we are 'pushing'

    Although I’ve heard good things I don’t think CB is a good place to have an 18 year old, especially the pressure we’ll be under this year.

    This is probably why we’re taking so long because it’s the position we are trying to get players who are in their prime age (25-30)

    Loan Vuskovic and buy a centre back who is older and in their prime. We need two anyway imo

    I’m still convinced we’re in for diakite

    reports were Bournemouth pulled out and we were intensifying talks a couple weeks ago and been no reports about him from other clubs or us since

    probably means it’s one we’re still trying for imo

    Lucumi and diakite would be the dream, I’m sure the club know that CB has been the most important position since the beginning and have set aside a big portion of the budget towards it. They would probably cost over £60 mil together but it would be money well spent imo.

    Looked like they were pretty firm on the €40m asking price which I'm guessing put us off

    Tbf we had allegedly bid like 33m from those same sources, maybe not miles off.

    Both Diakite and Lucumi had firm asking prices so I reckon we're playing a game of chicken on both to see if the price comes down.

    The problem on both counts however is they would likely be willing to play chicken until deep into August and our need is now. So we may need to cough up and pay more.

    Calmest I’ve been about our recruitment ever especially with how links can come from nowhere at any time but I am getting a little twitchy on the centre halves, think aslong as one is in by mid next week they should be fine for West Ham provided they’ve had a pre season

    Doesn’t help that one of the consistent links all summer plays for West Ham :emoticon-0102-bigsm Hardly going to be willing to strengthen us ahead of the opening day

    If Triantis, Seelt and Hjelde are a central three against Augsburg we could see mast hysteria break out <laugh>

    All the value in that deal is for
    Southampton. And quite right too. They have brought the player up .

    Not sure any of them could be haha, Triantis linked away and missed last couple games due to it (I think). Seelt has a minor knock, Hjelde is out for the first 3 PL games

    Seen a lot of other fans saying we haven’t signed proven PL players and all this balls. For 1) which established PL players are going to leave to come to us and 2) the reality is when we’re looking at the next level below of players we could potentially attract who’ve played at this, £100m gets you Harvey Elliot and Tyler Dibling.

    The comment was supposed to be counter intuitive but I guess I misjudged the deadly serious nature of the thread <whistle>
