Craig 6302 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 And just like with the acquisition of Nick Pope, and the final stages of the Botman pursuit, it's come completely out of leftfield - not been reported by a single journo for weeks. Marvellous stuff, I love the way this club are conducting business. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acrossthepond 703 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 I was just about to post an angry rant after I woke up, saw 4 fresh pages in this thread, and assumed for sure we’d signed someone. Then I saw it was 3.5 pages of arguing with an idiot. Good thing there was a sting in the tail or you’d all be for it. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig 6302 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Who told you were were 'low balling'? The same journos who until 20 minutes ago hadn't mentioned Isak's name for weeks? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polarboy 2124 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 (edited) So have we switched targets to Isak from Pedro after a last minute compromise from Sociedad, or are we signing both? Interesting to see how Howe will introduce him to the team if everything goes to plan. He'll maybe play him wide right when Wilson is fit, but I think he's more comfortable playing on the left so perhaps he'll play ASM on the right. It's fucking hilarious that this has dropped after the discussion about the window this morning 😂 Edited August 24, 2022 by Polarboy 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck knows if we were ever in for him but I think the Wilson situation changes the end of this window. Lots of West Ham reckon that Moyes doesn’t trust flair players very much and isn’t sure what to do with them. I think there’s something in that so hopefully this is the dildo sellers going above his head for a marquee summer window signing that their manager won’t be too keen on… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see. Let's go by parts. The first thing I have to say is that the fee seems very high. But I already commented in its day, when it sounded for 40-45 million, that for that price the Real Sociedad would never sell it. I think I made a post back in the day telling a bit about the player. He is not my favorite if we want to ensure immediate performance, but I do think he is a great signing. He is a very different player than Wilson. He is very good with the ball at his feet, he moves very well on the wing (left). He is capable of generating chances on his own even though he is outnumbered... He is good in aereal plays. On the other hand, I think he is still a bit to develop. He has many conditions, but he doesn't know how to use them all. And I think that also, when he manages to adapt all this, he will also be a very good scorer. Because, today, he is not a top scorer. To this day, he has been a streak forward. He had some very good months in the Netherlands, and at Real Sociedad he has been irregular. In fact, last year he and Sorloth were the worst pairing of strikers in Spain and the strikers who missed the most chances. In my opinion, we should not judge him from the first day for bad. Although the first year he scored only 5 or 6 goals (I think he just scored 6 goals this last year). He is a boy who is 22 years old and has already played 5 in the elite. He has something. But he has to make that leap. I sincerely hope he doesn't start from day one just because of his high price tag. I have no doubt that's not going to happen, because we saw that it didn't happen with Bruno, and it wouldn't have happened with Botman if Targett was healthy. So I hope that he is in the shadow of Wilson and little by little he can find his place. Without a doubt, he is a very good bet for the future. And I think that his style of play can also greatly enhance the second line and players like St. maximin, Bruno and Almirón. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy 2124 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 If Paqueta goes to the 'ammers we'll pick him up for a cheaper fee in a few windows when Moyes inevitably shits the bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
