2) Start negotiations with Barcelona over Alex Song:
Admittedly, you’d expect Gold and Sullivan to face some fierce competition come January after the midfielders superb displays since returning to England’s top flight. Securing Alex Song on loan was an absolute coup in itself, and to sign him on a permanent deal would surely be one of our best pieces of business in a long, long time. The Cameroon international provides much needed composure and grit in the Hammers’ midfield, and his efficiency in possession has led to him being one of our best performers this season, picking up more than one man of the match award thus far. I’m not going to hold my breath, but let’s hope the board can convince Song that West Ham is the place for him to be.
will agree with the Reid situation, could be crucial. If we can’t keep him, we need several central defenders of very good quality to cover, same with wing backs!
I don’t think Jarvis has performed due to the lack of Carroll and only really had the the opportunity to cross to the goal machine Carlton cole 😉 and maiga.
If we are stuck with a hopefully fit Andy Carroll until 2019 (I cannot see anyone else matching his wages) surely having Jarvis would help. What a plan B that would be if we were getting dominated in the centre or bringing ac on to close out a game, with the possibility of pinching a goal from a glorious Collins hoof 😉
Reid can do one as far as I am concerned, I just hope we have scouted some quality. We really need two centre backs and a possible replacement for jenkinson.
Reid can go. Team spirit above individuals all day long. We have built up a great team spirit and attitude and it only takes one sulky bad apple to start the rot. If fourth place doesn’t convince him this is where his future lies then see ya son !!
