Do you think West Ham are now capable of winning the Uefa Cup and a Champions League spot? It's only 2 players.
Although they have bought well, the defence still needs strengthening.
Maybe they will be able to when MSI (who own Corinthians) buy the club. They've been interested for a while, and this loan might be an indication that they're going to follow up on that interest.Pittsey said:Can't be true.
Mr Tevez would you choose Arsenal, Man U or West Ham.
EDIT - Damn. Seems it is. But it's only a season long loan with an option to buy. Still..... Fuck.
Can West Ham afford the £30 Million plus in transfer fees though?
Yes, but Ashton's injured right now and Teddy's a bit part player (though he is a legend). Zamora's been scoring for fun so far this season, otherwise I would have expected a Tevez/Harewood partnership.ThUg $TyLe said:Quick question, where did West Ham finish last season? 8th?
btw how many forwards have West Ham got:
Harewood
Zamora
Sheringham
Ashton
Cole
and now Tevez?
. Either of them could go to any team in the Premiership.Illuminattile said:Maybe they will be able to when MSI (who own Corinthians) buy the club. They've been interested for a while, and this loan might be an indication that they're going to follow up on that interest.
Anyway, Tevez is the only one who's confirmed this supposed deal. If it's true...well, at least I get to see them both play in the Prem this season!

No, he doesn't. He really doesn't.ThUg $TyLe said:Rumours of why Tevez and Mascharano joined West Ham.
Roman owns 15% of Corinthions (sp)...
Illuminattile said:West Ham have signed them on a permanent deal, for "undisclosed fees" (read; absolutely nothing). Expect MSI to relaunch their £90m bid for West Ham soon.
No, he doesn't. He really doesn't.

Yeah, Sky Sports don't seem to know much about the situation. Just picking up on the speculation.ThUg $TyLe said:Oh right, Sky Sports said he did lol![]()
