Tevez and Irons: The Truth

|

carlos_tevez_1121330cIt’s the silly season of course and no doubt some time  soon the ‘Tevez back to West Ham’ story will make its usual yearly appearance.

Already it’s been reported that he’s a Liverpool target and today Sky have said that an unnamed Premier League club is ready to make a move – that team NOT being the Reds

Naturally the more optimistic Hammers fans on social media have started the old ‘chestnut’ rolling again by claiming he may be on his way back for a glory glory last Boleyn season.

So for the umpteenth time we put it on our most reliable sources and he explained why it wouldn’t happen saying: ” “He’s  on £250k a week and  our wage cap is £64m including employers NI. Of 14 per cent !

“If we had him we could only afford about 12 players !”

Sorry to disappoint but that’s that one put to bed…AGAIN!

    I will hold fire on my comments about the transfer window & signings until the window closes.But as usual im sure we are hearing the big talk but will sign no one of significance.They will tell us they tried for many big names but we got beaten to them by other clubs.Same old a story.We got ‘kin lucky last summer.We cant rely on being lucky everytime.Sullivan said something about signing a couple of world class players.I aint holding my breathe.Actually i didnt hold fire,just realized,lol,nevermind **** happens 😉

      Chicken I think you are right again.The owners keep dangling the carrot in front of us and the end result is as always disappointment.Get rid of Carroll and free up the cash box.I am also sick of reading about Tevez .

  • bubs says:

    So let’s think small Bobby Zamora is free,Carlton will comeback we can keep Nolan,
    Tevez is a dream probably not on,
    That’s why we shoul push on with bargains like Gigac FREE
    Hernandez go and get him £12 million ( no can’t afford him )
    Austin ( £15 can’t afford him )
    Same old story let’s hope who ever we get Fromm the French,Spanish second Div or
    Turkey is as good as Sakho and not another Magia,

    Sometimes stats are needed to disprove something Quickdraw!! You know what i mean everytime you get the tape measure out to show your girlfriend!!! How you got your name i expect!!

    • Quickdraw Slaven a party says:

      Haha I suppose you’re right. Those custom made tape measures with the shorter inches don’t come cheap you know lol

  • essexclarets says:

    We wouldn’t be able to afford the agent fees let alone his transfer fee & wages.

    The Apache… what a player, he has always done his best, everywhere. Here in Italy the journalists say that next year he’ll play for Boca. Maybe it’s true, Tevez always said that’s his dream, he misses his country. 😉

  • Quickdraw Slaven a party says:

    A arrgghh!!! Stats fight! Lol

    Whatever he’s on he’s not coming back,neither is Rav,Carlton or Herbie the Hammer lol

  • essexclarets says:

    Tevez could walk into nearly any team he wants. As much as I would like him to return, there is not a chance in hell that he would come back to us.
    from CL final to EL 1st qualifying round, mmmmmm i wonder..???
