The claim from talkSPORT that Jarrod Bowen will leave to become an Aston Villa player this summer will have West Ham supporters worried and concerned over the ripple effect any such departure may have on other ‘key players’, the very players which the Kretinsky- Gold led board had pledged to try and keep at the club.
Separating out the emotions, if Villa decide to pay the claimed £50 million which West Ham are asking for his signature there’s an argument to say that selling Bowen at nearly thirty year sold makes a lot of sense, if he’s determined to put his career first (and who could blame him for that).
The worry for Irons supporters is that the sale of the captain could see an exodus follow: West Ham simply cannot afford to lose all of their key players and hope to replace them in time for the season starting in six weeks.

Taty- reported as wanted by AC Milan
So when a report claims former Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim – now at AC Milan – plans a bid for Taty Castellanos this summer, the alarm bells do start to chime louder.
The Argentine striker would be crucial to West Ham’s promotion attempts, along with Bowen: If the Hammers lose their skipper then likely Castellanos, Mavropanos and Diouf would follow, along with Summerville, Fernandes of course plus Areola, Todibo, Wan Bissaka, Pablo… That would leave poor old Tomas Soucek likely to be the last man standing (only on one leg) at London Stadium with a massive problem for Nuno ahead of the Championship season start.
Worrying times indeed for season ticket holders who have renewed in their thousands and now trying to imagine West Ham without any of their squad from last season pulling on the shirt in August.
I want Bowen to stay and not be the start of others leaving . Is the talk sport article a wind up or is there any truth in it .
Compare what the headlines have been saying to what’s actually happened in the past 3 weeks.
Even if Bowen wanted to go, I don’t think Everton or Villa would pay our asking price.
How many more permutations?
Leaving players 17, 12, 7, 5.
Whu suppose to be the silent club to speculations keep it hush hush.
Don’t need click bait articles just wait and see.
When it’s decided where/when Fernandes is going let everybody know articles are so repetitive.
With all due respect Jeeps, isn’t it easier for you to stop reading rather than for the website to stop publishing?
These are peoples jobs. If I don’t want bread, I don’t walk into the bakers and demand they stop baking.
Just read the official website mate, they’ll tell you when players are sold or signed and won’t give opinions.
Good advice will stop reading Bowen and Fernandes articles until 100% confirmed.
Just won’t get rid of Thomas Slow czech. I’m done
He’s injured for 3 months
Doom Doom Doom & Gloom .. all you ever spout.
ALL CLICK BAIT Mate …
Move on ..
“doom , doom, gloom and doom’: Maybe go and read today’s posts again.
It’s not all he ever spouts at all.
Some very positive pieces today but you didn’t comment on them.
Anyway, stop being unpleasant. This isn’t trip advisor, either talk about the topic or don’t post. The writers are not here for your abusing pleasure.
We will just have to wait & see; but surely, the odds must be on us losing the core of last season’s team. Unless something stupendous happens, I fear an almost unrecognizable squad (apart from several of our youngsters) in the Championship. Relegation was, after all, a disaster !

Can’t believe the fuss this off the cuff comment from a known wind up merchant has created. Andy Goldstein must be peeing himself laughing
