Why would you want to be fair to someone who has admitted to being contrary for the sake of a reaction?

Do we really need this guy? I'm not saying he would be a bad addition, but I just think if we were going to spend around £30m, surely it would be better spent on a central midfielder or right back? Wing options are something we have a fair bit of.
If he could be brought in for half that then fine, but £30m on an area I'm not sure needs strengthening seems unnecessary to me. Prefer to see the larger sums focused on the two key areas for me - central midfield, and right back.

Maybe someone is leaving

These aren't the players you're looking for.

They've already left. Ansu Fati was covering that left wing.Maybe someone is leaving
We may well be looking at those areas as well, but as is always the case we cannot control the order of transfers nor the order in which rumours surface.
Loads of rumours that Kudus wants out of West Ham ASAP.
It would have been the same here this summer but still worth having him as in retrospect, we’d have had a much better shot at Europe.

He’ll be looking for Champions League football, plus more money and a contract on his terms.
TB clearly drew a line in the sand when trying to sign him last summer.
March, Mitoma, Adingra and Summerville looks like a good set of wingers to me. Four strong options and then several other players able to fill the winger roles if needed. And then when Mitoma moves next summer, Summerville is the next main man with Osman (who I think will be loaned out next season) as his backup.
CM and RB surely coming in as well. Fair bit of money will be spent this summer.

I'm keeping everything crossed that Solly March can return to his previous form, but not expecting it.
Because of that unknown I think Osman will stay. I also think Barco will be used more attacking than defending.
I'm trusting the algorithms on Summerville, plus the fact that he was the Championship player of the season clearly shows he's thought of highly by his peers.
I agree with CM and RB coming in.
I also think a ball playing central defender will be signed. Dunk, JPvH and Webster is not enough depth if Hűrzeler mainly plays out from the back. I think Igor's touch is too heavy for that role.

I wonder whether we'll see Baleba play in the 'third' CB role that FH seems to favour. He certainly converted a couple of CDMs at St Pauli to play that role, but whether that was through necessity (i.e. no money to buy others players) or not, I don't know.

Can’t say too much, but I know someone who works for West Ham who thinks Kudus is a f*cking bellend. He’d have been a better year long option than Fati but I can’t say I’m gutted we missed out on him either.

Summerville has more goals and more assists in less minutes. Although AK did it in a stronger division overall. Wouldn’t say there’s much between them, but Summerville has a much better Prem record so hopefully that’s a sign that he’s handle the step back up much better than AK did.

Brighton made enquiries about Summerville last month, "but their offering did not tick [Leeds] or [Summerville's] boxes on a transfer." https://www.leeds-live.co.uk/sport/leeds-united/leeds-united-reject-30m-premier-29461959

No longer interested apparently. Must be the price as we'd already signed Osman on the left by the time we enquired about Summerville (Minteh plays on the right).
