Joshua King
Marko Arnautovic
Olivier Giroud
Christian Benteke
Moussa Dembélé
Abdallah Sima
Adam Hložek
M'Bala Nzola
Boulaye Dia
No brainer for me. Giroud. Haven't seen enough of the last 4 names. Doubt if Dembele would leave Lyon who are top of the league in France, Arnautovic comes with too much baggage.

Probably won't get any of them because in our present system they'd only be a backup which I doubt would appeal. But my guess would be if any of that lot shipped up it would be King.
Have you noticed that in all the Gonz videos, the King brand is front centre. The mens apparel brand mostly aimed at the 24-30 chav market is obviously fully comped to HC. Not in Scotland though, they tend to be more Fred Perry men

15m is about right for him. Decent player that can actually run and score goals in the Premier League. Would be happy with this.
Scored exactly Zero goals this year.
That makes him a cert then...

Surprised that nobody has mentioned the Elephant Man yet.

Released on a free by Atletico Madrid recently.

Not good but he has made only 8 apperances this season, 3 starts and 5 as a sub and had averaged about 46mins in the games he had played. basically they arent playing him at the moment, which brings the question about his match fitness.

I don’t know half of those players but I think Josh King gotta be the favourite. Not that he’d be my fave but I think he fits the criteria for Moyes and the dwarf if they can get him cheap enough
COYI!!!

Nikdo is a done deal.

Should the deal for Nikdo fall through at the eleventh hour, Crouchy is indeed the next option my learned friend.

And he's waiting by the phone as he's always been a big Hammers fan and attributes jellied eels to his unusual height.
