Deffo an upgrade on the summer dross we signed.

That wouldn't be difficult.

From what I've seen of him, Snodgrass looks a brilliant Championship level player, not sure he's really what we need.

I'm happy with it, decent Prem player for me, creative with a bit of nastiness thrown in.Sort of player everyone hates, but you'd always want his type with you rather than against you. Deffo an upgrade on the summer dross we signed.

Sorry for not keeping up but have we signed him? Is he seen as a back up to Carroll or alongside?

Nothing has been confirmed yet.

Update on Payet:-

Personally I would stop his wages as he refuses to play and let him rot until he apologises to the other players and the fans.

If that is £27.2m up front, then the Board would be daft to to bite Marseille's (metaphorical) arm off. At the shoulder.

Apparently it's £27.2m up front with another £3.0 in add-ons. If that's for getting on a plane at Gatwick I'd jump at it.

Well he's a Hammer now. http://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2017/january/27...

Be interesting to see how he is used. Personally I don't think you can beat Antonio and Lanzini with Carroll in the middle. And I think of Snodgrass as a striker yet here they talk of him as a winger.

Elsewhere Iain Dowie is saying what a good signing Fonte is...

Not sure on the Snodgrass signing either, think we have several who offer similar already, but certainly boosts the squad.

Sounds like a deals agreed for the French bloke to fk off so presumably Hogan will then be signed.

Looks like it's official.

That'll be the Iain Dowie who forgot we had changed ends and scored a fantastic own goal at Stockport.

By not giving a fk what the tosser in the video thinks... much like he hasn't to the Club, his teammates or fans. Good on 'em.

Oh yes indeed but they've done a few like this, always amusing and always near the mark!

I'm hoping now that Child#27 has fked off the team might actually turn up tonight, unlike that shambles in the Cup last month.

Suspect that we'll see Snodgrass as a sub & that Fonte will be on the bench.

COYI!!!
