In footballing parlance, David Moyes 'never fancied' Felipe Anderson, a talented 'luxury' player brought to West Ham at great expense as part of 'Pellegreedy's' master plan to take the club 'to the next level'. Unfortunately that next level was to virtually bankrupt the club, at the same time as nearly getting it relegated, that certainly would have been another level, but not the one the fans or owners had anticipated.

Well it is the silly season, so we would be neglecting our duties in not mentioning players 'linked' with West Ham, but some of the reports are at best stale, whereas others are down right dumb. The 2020/1 Euros have thrown up the names of new targets, as some players have shone during their appearances in the competition, many have become unrecognisable from the players that their domestic fans see.

The clamour and anxiety most football fans have before the beginning of each new season invariably relates to the incomings and outgoings at their clubs, West Ham's acquisition of senior players have been conspicuous by their absence recently, so what's going on?
