Summer 26 Transfer Window - hopes, speculation, rumours etc.

West Ham may have a 60k seater stadium, but their matchday revenue is only about £40m.

It's funny, because everything I've heard suggests that West Ham are up shit creek without a paddle and will need to cash in on players.

I wonder some other Middle-Eastern/Yank conglomeration will buy them. Afterall the 60k stadium is already built and pretty much free for 100 years and they are London based, although I suspect the surrounding areas are already cashed out for any speculation options. And I suspect the owner needs to cash out whilst he is still free and wandering about.

I suspect the first thing they would do would be to bin that stadium, what a disastrous move that has been for them.

I think Bowen would be a good fit but I totally get the concerns some have about his age, what he would cost and his most  likely yearning for jellied eels.

[Brend'Watkins]

If it’s a case of one or the other it’s definitely got to be Somervile please. Wouldn’t be against both, Bowen on loan maybe given his age. A season loan might suit them actually.

How does a side get relegated with Bowen, Summerville and Fernandes in the side.

Mavropanos more than decent too.

If there's any truth in it I think it's a silly transfer. The only positive when getting Gregory/MON flashbacks is that their signings might not have been so damaging if we'd actually achieved CL.

Just think of all those "goal contributions" he and Ollie will rack-up next season. You might as well do the white line.

Jellied eels are enough to put you off anyone!

Hayden Hackney off to Everton. Will he just be another Dibbling? Seems worth a punt at £16m.

Bowen would be ideal for us, just a few years too late. But hey, it ain’t my money, so go get him…

He’d have a similar impact to Snodgrass I reckon, we will love him.

[JUAN PABLO]

talking of Bowen , a yes for me .

he would have more goals and assists x20 than evann , jadon , harvey and Leon put together. 

Get us back in champs league , the age and value doesnt matter and bring a younger guy in next season to learn off him.

[cdbearsfan]

Would happily have taken Rashford, so Bowen for probably lower wages seems pretty sensible to me. Could be fun. So probably won't happen.

[Hookeysmith]

Always rated him and think he would fit in perfectly within our system.

Please make it happen. He is fit enough and wise enough to play well into his 30's. Would create and score a good few for us

[Dogtanian]

He’ll have to sort his hair out.

I've read a lot of West Ham's opinions on Somerville and most of them don't give a shit about him being sold. They say he goes missing for really long periods.
