West Ham United have been 'linked' with just about every striker that has a pulse during the club's 'eternal' search for striker NUMBER 50! Yes, 49, is the eye watering amount of strikers signed during the tenure of the current owners, a figure only matched by some of the eye watering payments they made to buy, what were, in most cases, 'duds'.

Hammers captain in all but name, Declan Rice, had an 'interesting' game for England in the epic 2-0 victory over ze Germans at Wembley. Dec's Jekyll and Hyde performance was split in to two halves, during the first half Declan looked very uneasy, got himself booked early doors and spent a lot of time with his arm in the air looking like he was trying to hail a London Taxi!

The 'Angel of Ogbonna' is 34 years old, 'Les Dawson' is 32 and Fabian Balbuena has left the club, so there would appear to be a centre back crisis, with there being only two ageing incumbents. Obviously two centre backs are not enough, especially as neither one is a spring chicken.
