can't complain - two most important areas filled, wud have loved Cornet to compete with Mitchell and be back up as a winger, big upgrade on Schlupp imho, no striker but we're OK there for now.
Yeah I agree there. All depends on Eze/Olise being fit.
I'm guessing an ideal starting line up will look something like:
Johnstone
Munoz Andersen Guehi Mitchell
Wharton Lerma Eze
Olise Mateta Ayew
That wouldn't be too shabby albeit not perfect. Doucoure to come back and some forward options, if everyone stays, would be ideal next season.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

Let's tell him Centre Forward. He cannot possibly be worse than what we have, all we have to do is point him in the right direction.
Reminds me of a story Joe Cole told the gathered hackers at a golf day One of the West Ham players was concussed just before Half time and in the dressing room Harry Rednapp was desperate not to use his sub yet . (I cant remember the names ) After asking for the tenth time if his centre half could go out for the second half the coach said "I dunno boss he is still dizzy ,I don't think he even knows who he is let alone where he is " "Thats great " said Harry " Tell him he is Pele and we will stick him up front "

Pleased with our business this window. Trust in Dougie who's had Wharton on his radar for a while. New boys should strengthen the team quite significantly.
So, Johnstone stays. I'm pleased about that - hope he is.
Biggest concern for the rest of the season is the potential fragility of Olise and Eze. Can they stay injury free?
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

The one and only time we will be the top Premier spenders in a window. You can only loan, who other clubs are prepared to let you have, without charging a kings ransom for the pleasure.

I’m quite happy, we’ve finally covered 50% of the two positions everyone’s always moaning about.
Plus we’ve obviously got away with not paying the northern bloke much, because he can’t afford a pint in the Clifton

No we haven't.
These are positions people tend to go on about
Right Back (covered) Left Back Left Winger Striker
some also say creative center mid.

7 1/2 out of 10 as Munoz should take over the number 3 shirt immediately and Wharton takes Hughes shirt fairly quicly. Mainly good with our alleged limited funds.
Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course).
