Wan Bissaka - good grief no.

Ha ha, I agree. Whenever his name is mentioned I do wonder what they are seeing.

Reckon that Wan-Bissaka back to Palace and Munoz going to wherever Glasner ends up has to be the most nailed-on pair of summer transfers you could dream up.

Where do we think Glasner is ending up? I reckon Chelsea or Leverkusen. Maybe one of the Italian fallen giants like AC.

Edit: And the same question for Irola I suppose. Will he raid Bournemouth dry?

I reckon Chelsea is pretty unlikely.

The only West Ham player I like the look of is Mavropanos. Bowen is too old.

I think Mavropanos strikes me as a classic looks great in a team who’s under the pump. That’s not to say he’s not a solid centre-back but not convinced he’d work where we want to be.

West Ham fan at work rates him, but says he already committed to join …?? Another club.

I'd only be interested in Bowen on loan from West Ham from what I've seen

Wan Bissaka - good grief no.

Reckon we would be begging for Konsa or even Carlos Cuellar to return to right back if AWB joined. He's absolutely useless and then some. That's on the ball, defensively he has no positional sense. Constantly gets caught on back post.

He’s just very limited. He can tackle well, but we need so much more from our full backs. He’s terrible going forward.

Emery tends to have the right back sit back and defend mostly, that's why I think he'd be decent enough cover for Cash.

He’s good one v one but not particularly at any of the other bits of defending. Someone else said earlier, he’s useless on the ball so would be an absolute liability in our bait the press approach.
