In other news Cresweel has been injured and is out for 6 months so now west ham are short in that area too.
That's harsh on him. West Ham looking good and moving stadium, happy times for the club and he's OUT. Bad luck lad.

They can out bid Bournemouth for Smith if they like...In other news Cresweel has been injured and is out for 6 months so now west ham are short in that area too.
.
my sources told me his is similar to kante. an modern day player who reads and intercepts.
Kante is very good at what he does but he's limited.
We need a real playmaker who can dictate the tempo and is quick in transition. Dahoud looks the biz.
Joe Allen – Likely fee – £13m
Liverpool have accepted a £13m bid for the Welshman, who’s currently undergoing a medical at Stoke.
Lucas – Likely fee – £5m
Galatasaray have bid £2.5m for Lucas, but we could easily tempt a buyer into paying £5m for the experienced defensive midfielder.
Lazar Markovic – Likely fee – £12m
Sporting, Fiorentina and Schalke are all in contact with us regarding Markovic’s future, so £12m for a 22-year-old with bundles of talent is probably not a high enough asking price, if anything.
Brad Smith – Likely fee – £6m
Liverpool have accepted a £6m bid for Smith from Bournemouth.
Luis Alberto – Likely fee – £7m
We’ve put a £7m asking price on the Spaniard’s head, with Sevilla interested in taking him back to La Liga permanently.
Christian Benteke – Likely fee – £31m
Someone is going to take a plump on Benteke, with Liverpool requiring pretty much what we spent on him last summer to do business. Palace have already agreed to pay basically this sum although for various reasons a transfer stalled, but before the window shuts, a suitor will bid again. Benteke should move, after Jurgen Klopp hinted he’d struggle for minutes.
Mario Balotelli – Likely fee – Zero
Totally surplus to requirements, Liverpool will accept any bid or loan offer just to get Balotelli off the wage list.
Jon Flanagan Likely fee – Loan (2m fee)
Signing Flanno on loan for the campaign will cost Burnley, or any potential side, a £2m loan fee.
Total: £79m
Total including players already sold: £107.5m
So what have we spent so far?
Windy £25m
Mane £34M
Karius £4.7 M
Total £63.7M
So £40M left in sales...plus what? 60M unspent kitty.
Say we buy a LB for 15M that still leaves 85M to add to next year's kitty if we make it into Europe.
Rumour suggests Dahoud is open to a move but his club are not willing to sell both key CM's in one window. If we bid over the odds we could get him I imagine. Otherwise I imagine we revisit the deal next year.I'm completely naive with Dahoud, is he any good? Also, is he from da hood?![]()

He is worth £20-25m and is about 20-21 years old.
Maybe £27-30m would persuade hi club. But do we get good value?
Or he has a great season and his worth rises to £30m.
I heard so too. It is a 30mil bid needed i think.
Arsenal bought that swiss mad lad off them so they are flush and want to hold on for a year.
I agree he is deffo worth a 25mil value which they seem to not want to take.
The question is does Klopp consider this a vital gap to fill (I know we generally do).
If so, and he's the target just pay what it takes.
I assume if we don't buy him it's not considered an area of concern.
