While i was browsing the internet in hopes of seeing something about Bonucci coming i found this gem:

Juventus signed Bonucci, Barzagli and Benatia for €35 mill

Manchester City signed Stones, Mangala and Otamendi for €140 mill.

Zabaleta confirmed by The Hammers.

http://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2017 ... o-zabaleta

Seeing him in a West Ham shirt. It's sad.
Can't wait for him to come back to us, as we know he will.


I wonder what Walmai's thoughts are on this ??

For myself, I wonder where the Hammers will play him; at full back or in midfield, or even central defence ??

Really hope he does well for them, except when they play us, of course.

Not read this anywhere else on here but The Chinese FA have just implemented a 100% tax on foreign footballers. So Costa, Rooney etc who were looking at big transfer fees and huge salaries wont look so attractive to clubs like Tianjin who would literally have to pay £150m in fees for Costa before his wages. Might change the market a bit if clubs counting on selling to China suddenly don't have the income they expected.

Interesting. But I think you'll find as with most Chinese regulations, it's just a starting point for 'negotiation'. Wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if the actual fee is around 10% paid to whatever government officials have overseas school payments to make for their kids

Oh, I don't know Zurich, if it means we might yet have the spectacle of Shrek plying his waning trade in the lower Divisions in this country, for the likes of Accrington Stanley or somesuch, I wouldn't want to criticise the Chinese unduly.

If so, I'd much rather it be a double announcement JC, omitting Walker from the proceedings............

The Chinese are the biggest bunch of hypocrites in the world. Communists yet the biggest Capitalists . How does that work. Let companies like Apple , Samsung dump their shitty pollutants all over the place, so that they can't get done in Europe or the US

In purely tax matters, if it means that Chelsea and the Scum won't be receiving multiple millions (or Pogbas) for the likes of Costa and Shrek, to improve their financial positions further, then I'm not complaining.

We're favourites to get Walker but I can't see Levy letting him go without squeezing every penny out of us. I doubt he'll be announced tomorrow. Mendy is possible if we've given up on Alex Sandro from Juventus. I really hope we get Fabinho. Perfect replacement for Yaya who won't be here for more than a year at most. We need height in central midfield and he's well over 6 foot as well as being a fine player. Good back up at RB as well. Fernando can then be sold.
