Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed that Eddie Nketiah will not join West Ham United, his simple answer when questioned if Nketiah might end up at the London Stadium was 'NO'. He then went on to elucidate, by explaining that Arsenal were not in the habit of providing players for their Barclays Premier League rivals.

This inverted compliment shows just how far David Moyes has managed to move the club forwards, albeit with the odd ricket here and there along the way. It is a long time, if ever, since a club of Arsenal's enormous financial clout has worried about little old West Ham!

Manuel Pellegrini managed to plough through huge sums of money in over priced ill advised 'vanity' signings, but they pale in to insignificance when compared with some of Arsenal's expenditures, London rivals Chelsea have also splashed the cash with little or no return, so it not just West Ham who have been 'spanked' recently. THe difference being that both Arsenal and Chelsea, and that other lot from North London, ALL have access to far greater funds than West Ham, a situation that engenders enormous anger among Hammers fans who feel they were 'conned' by statements declaring the monies from the sale of the Boleyn would help push the club to 'another' level.

Under Pellegrini West Ham United DID nearly reach another level, THE CHAMPIONSIP! So perhaps fans baying for new signings should remember the old adage of 'be careful what you wish for', you might just get it! - Ed

Well with La Merde and Snoddy now gone, best wishes at West Brom by the way. I hope the money is not burning a hole in the dildos pocket. We have to get this one right..

Is it any wonder? The clowns running the Big Top (BoM) have sold a "striker" when we have NONE in the squad. The Beast I feel is not fully fit and prone to injury... oh, and for good measure I still think he's an attacking winger not a real No9. sorry to see Snoddy go, I wish him good fortune, good honest player and man.

As for Arteta... he's spot on! Why sell to your competitors? How many have we lost to Spudz? Peters, Carrick, Defoe, Kanute etc. With Declan next on the list going to Chavski, would much prefer to see him move to Spain or Italy.
