Thilo Kehrer's 'bargain' transfer from PSG is starting to look like one of the deals of the window, at just £10 Million Kehrer, already a fan favourite is destined for great things at the club, the only issue for David Moyes is keeping a centre back happy while playing him as a right back!

Thilo Kehrer’s game by numbers vs England were impressive: 100% long passes completed- 82 total touches - 77.8% pass accuracy- 4/6 tackles won-4 ball recoveries 4- clearances, all these stats are from Thilo playing in the 'unfamiliar' right back role.

Once Hammers fans gazed enviously at how many International players their competitors had away representing their countries, now they are experiencing the feeling for themselves, with mixed emotions. Be careful what you wish for is an expression remorselesly rolled out regarding the aspirations of the supporters of 'elite level' football clubs and it rings as true today as it has in the past!

The International break used to be a time when West Ham managers historically were able to work with their squad in order to 'catch' some teams by surprise when the domestic games returned, well that is all a thing of the past now with virtually ALL of Hammers first team or there abouts being called up to represent their countries.
