So Dafydd has told Hugh that Moyes wants to spend £45m?

Did he say how much he’ll actually get?

Because it’s more likely to be a tenth of that

Think 4.5m is more believable, and that is if we are lucky.
It’s not what you do it is the way that you do it.

So, has Brentford falling at the final hurdle cleared the way for us to sign Benrahma or Watkins?
I'd certainly take Watkins over Braithwaite, especially as the fee would allegedly be similar.
Communism deprives no man of the power to appropriate the products of society; all that it does is to deprive him of the power to subjugate the labour of others by means of such appropriations.

Watkins had no service but huffed and puffed to the end. Benrahma however looked like he gave up when his fancy flicks didn't come off and had a shocker. Bigger clubs eyeing his availability will have noticed that.

I'll happily admit that last night was the first time I'd watched wither for a full game. Watkins worked hard but had next to no support. Benrahma looked like a show pony from the off. On the evidence of last night I wouldn't touch him with the proverbial bargepole.

I don't believe a word of that rumour.

Whether or not Eze would be a good investment or not, for a similar amount of money, I think they'll do all they can to get him.

Assuming we keep Rice, which is most definitely not a given, and they can offload a few, I can see Eze, a left-back and maybe Duffy from Brighton arriving because Moyes rates him.

No-one else.

I don't believe it either. I am listening to Talk Sport right now and, as you probably know, they are all over transfer speculation and there has been absolutely no mention of Brathwaite, or for that matter West Ham, in the last hour.

It's one game though. Anyone scouting them will have watched them a dozen times.
