Really hope it comes back to bite them. The abuse he got for not playing the West Ham way was comedy gold. What is this West Ham way? Not a fan of his but did a decent job for them.

Was really hoping they weren't allowed back in.

I'm all prepared for a dull mid table season watching a load of journey men.

Is this a record for how early the thread about not signing anyone has appeared. Season not even over and yet here it is.

How horribly dull. After the season just gone I would prefer players who have yet to peak rather than those on their way down. Get players in for the future, rather than few journey men (unless they are bridge or upson quality!). Can see hughton agreeing with you though

Not surprised even after what he was saying a few weeks back. Interesting to see how clement does if he goes there.

No offence to him, but I hope he flops (don't think he will, looked good in the small bits I've seen) just so we avoid the inevitable moaning from the usual on here.

Well that's depressing, was in the middle of my uni finals and so missed the game. Still annoyed!

Well done JFC, got a big battle on his hands to make the final squad with some of the names in the midfield. Really hope he makes it though.

:bowdown: Top research there. Looks like we raided Spain for a couple of players last summer then (Garcia as well). Any more we haven't been told about?

One of the scouts in that book is now a Brighton scout (mark Anderson).

Not seen starkey at left back so the big question, does he look good enough to be back up and maybe possible first choice left back?

Binned mine a while back after a good few years of not using it. Not missed it a bit

Big fan, was very dissapointed when he was loaned out. As previously been said can't see him being a hughton type player though. Shame both colunga and holla were not here under Oscar.

For a pre-season friendly, commitment!

Seems to have worked in Denmark. The Brentford chairman owns a club out there where he implemented the system and, I think, they are doing pretty well. Whether it can cross over into the English game and the ultra competitive championship only time will tell. Warburton obviously didn't think it...

But would that number have gone if it was at another ground?

Not especially. I have reservations about the management team, the style of play and what sort of players we may sign (have a horrible feeling it will be journey men on 1 year deals). Hopefully all unfounded though and we are back challenging at the top of league.

Every club in the world becomes a selling club if the offer is above what they think the player is worth.

Would imagine it would be quite a topic of conversation in the week/month/probably longer before his return to the amex if he got it. 'Will you boo gus' threads etc
