Hammers look to fix want-away problem with Premier League bid on horizon

Image for Hammers look to fix want-away problem with Premier League bid on horizon

The departure of Aaron Wan Bissaka was no doubt welcomed at West Ham’s training facility at Rush Green, as one of those senior players who had reportedly downed tools was shipped off to become – temporarily anways- someone else’s problem.

Unai Emery can now wrestle with the Rubic Cube – like puzzle to unlock Wan Bissaka’s best that Hammers fans saw fleetingly before the DR Congo international slumped into second season mediocrity.

And according to one of Claret and Hugh’s transfer sources- close to several of the players in the squad – there is more good news on the ‘outgoings’ side of things heading our way with news that one of the more troublesome players is the subject of renewed domestic interest.

West Ham's Todibo talks to Arron Wan Bissaka who has been offered to Arsenal

Unhappy Hammers – one gone, one going…According to our source

Jean Clair Todibo has long been a thorn in successive managers’ sides, finding ways to fall out with first Lopetegui then Potter and now Nuno. West Ham are currently paying a fortune for their third centre back to not participate in training – despite it being evident from the weekend’s result just how badly they need another functioning centre half to replace Max Kilman. (Who knew!)

Our source claims ‘A Premier League Club‘ are now in serious discussions over a transfer for Todibo.

After the interest in the defender from the Italian and French leagues from clubs solely seeking cheeky subsidised loans,  it seems better financial options for West Ham are on the way –  as is a more harmonious training ground if Todibo gets his move away and West Ham get a loan with an option or obligation which, we are told, is what the club are working towards.

From the old Bobby Moore Upper to the Billy Bonds' stand these days - sometimes- have to admit I have not renewed my season ticket... I've been watching since '03 and a supporter since about 1970..
Favourite player - Dean Ashton: Still watch YouTube repeats of the Cup Final of 2006 hoping in vain that Shaka Hislop grows six inches and stops Steven Gerrard's injury time equaliser. Can tell I'm getting old knowing I saw both Mark Noble's debut and his last game at West Ham.
Pulling on a Claret and Blue replica shirt still makes me feel the same butterflies as when I was seven years old. Magic.

    I only saw highlights, in which Kilman didn’t look like the problem. Was he actually that bad again? I’d have thought he’d rediscover some form in the lesser league.

    I’m not his biggest fan but I think you’re being unfair to klinman in the 3 games so far mav has been a lot worse than him.

  • M B says:

    Solves nothing. Purely treating the symptoms and making us weaker while the cause remains. The club need to find some intestinal fortitude and sack Nuno today!!

  • John simmonds says:

    I wonder if dithering Dave would’ve signed either of those two?
