Hammer Aaron Cresswell gave BT Sport viewers a big hint that more new additions are yet to come. He teased viewers by saying he was sure there will be a few more new players in addition to goalkeeper Alphonse Areola who signed earlier this week from PSG on loan.
It is believed David Moyes and David Sullivan are actively working on deals for a centre back, a striker and an attacking midfielder as they work against the clock to get their transfer business done before the end of August.”
Aaron Cresswell told BT Sports. ‘It’s not really down to us but I’m sure there’ll be a few players coming in before all that starts, I’m looking forward to it and the lads we had out there today worked hard, put a good shift in and it was a good win.
“We were missing five or six big players who were massive for us last year. They’ve been playing in the Euros so it’ll be good to welcome them back this week. We’ve got two weeks to go now, so I’m looking forward to it.”
Speaking about his teammate Said Benrahama Cressy added “In spells he’s fantastic and that’s Said all over, to get in that position is exactly where we want him, to get it on that right foot. He’s done that plenty of times in training and I’m sure he’ll do it again.”
We need a CM, in addition to a CB, AM and Striker. And I would say LF cover as Masa is injury prone and Cressie cannot play every game.
Working against the clock?? Windows been open for weeks. Only ourselves to blame if they don’t get them done
Can someone tell me why we are dealing with Chelsea trying to sign players who cannot make their first team ! Are we that naive, have we such a lack of imagination. Lets say with sign Zouma for 25m and Abraham for 30m, 55m into Chelsea’s funds to go out and get stronger. We are a joke if we are making our competitors stronger. Zouma went out on loan to Everton a few years ago and by all accounts he was no better than average. If we end up buying these 2 players off Chelsea and end up spending this sort of money, I can tell you Moyes will be putting immense pressure on himself, the fans will turn on him if he has wasted this amount of money on these two players. There is no point in buying players who are not going to make us better.
I thought that David Moyes was going to go for young, hungry up and coming , proven English Championship players. He can mould them into the NEW West Ham way.
