Slav’s not interested in players who ‘umm’ and ‘err’

Slaven Bilic has made his position clear on Carlos Bacca or anyone else who doesn’t want to play for the Irons – ‘your loss pal!’

The manager has been discussing his signing policy and clearly shares the view of us fans who have little or no time for those who “umm” and “err” over a move to the London Stadium.

Slav only wants wholehearted individuals who are enthusiastic to play for what he calls “a good club.”

The manager spent some time discussing the Carlos Bacca deal today and seemed at pains to make his own posiion clear.

He said: “We tried and it was close. It became a saga a little bit – I think Bacca is impossible.”

And then in a genuine statement of intent for now and the future Slav announced: “I don’t want to have to drag players to here. We are a good club with players who are proud to play for us.”
