wilsoncgp 9,283 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 All of this begs the question Where the *** was this money last summer and in Jan. Wtf is that about. My thoughts exactly This is certainly something that bugs me about the fees being pushed around this window. But at least that is happening now. We can look back at last year and see it for the clear wasted opportunity that it was but it does no good in the here and now to spend too much time worrying about it.

Snowblind 1,734 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I'm hoping Traore can learn a thing or two from Braithwaite... He's ambidextrous, likes to cut inside and times his shots excellently with good, natural technique. He's fast - obviously not insane like Adama - but his brain works just as quickly, so fingers crossed Adama keeps a close eye on him in training and starts to develop his own game with some of what he sees.

Smogzilla 7,484 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Nice to see he's going out to Portugal like. Getting mixed in straight away Link to post Share on other sites
Denzel Zanzibar 6,972 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Very happy about Braithwaite, the question is can he adapt to English football but I personally think he will. Link to post Share on other sites
Dan_Boro_Till_I_Die 1,181 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Braithwaite replaces Fischer lw/striker? Link to post Share on other sites
Denzel Zanzibar 6,972 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 As is stands I see Braithwaite on the left and Bamford or Traore (if he stays) on the right. Ramirez #10, again if he stays. If Ramirez goes then Bamford in the middle and Stuani on the right (ugh.) Now we just need a keeper and Assombalonga sorted. Link to post Share on other sites
BoroYorkie 94 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Nice to see he's going out to Portugal like. Getting mixed in straight away Surprised that he's going out for 2 days, but glad that he is. Thought he'd have had a few days to sort stuff out and get moved. Reckon that Monk must want to see him in action on Saturday. Link to post Share on other sites
Pork Slops 576 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Providing he is good/passionate enough to merit one, Martin Braithwaite is going to require quite a creative chant id imagine. Link to post Share on other sites
BegSteeleOrBoro 55 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Leave it open to someone else to finish but the chorus of don't look back in anger scans nicely... "ooh Martin Braithwaite" Link to post Share on other sites
BoroYorkie 94 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 So Braithwaite done, all attention on Assombalonga who is back tomorrow and a GK. Wonder who the first choice GK target is Darlow/Randolph/Westwood and who are decoys to try force clubs to decide, whoever it is we don't seem to want to go over 5m which is fair enough.

wilsoncgp 9,283 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I'd rather Randolph be our first choice. It's reasonable for both clubs and shouldn't involve any need to bring Traore to the table any more. Don't see Wednesday selling Westwood. Not that fond of Darlow anyway.

Borodane 6,301 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Think Westwood was our initial first choice and then Darlow but due to circumstances Randolph now looks like the most viable option. Would also make a lot of sense for both West Ham and the player if they get Hart. Very good keeper. Link to post Share on other sites
