David Moyes' Championship shopping list is concise but acute, ideally he would like to bring in "a couple of players", sooner rather than later, obtaining precious training time with his new players is paramount, unfortunately, as is common with Barclays Premier League deals, brinkmanship rears it's ugly head.

West Ham United's pursuit of a centre back have taken on almost 'boxed set' proportions, one after the other targets have fallen by the way side for a variety of reasons, NOT always the club's fault. The 'fear' story doing the rounds is Hammers' interest in twice relegated 30 year old 'Les' Dawson from Championship team Watford, a bang average player at best, the mooted £4 Million fee is outrageous, the Hornets should be paying clubs to take Dawson of their wage bill instead!

Fue divertido mientras duró, In other words, it was fun while it lasted, but now is time for West Ham fans, particularly the females, to say goodbye to Felipe Anderson with his good looks, disarming smile and short shorts. The grim reality is that for whatever reason, Anderson arrived, shone, and then burned, his stock having fallen to such an extent that no one wanted to buy him, and a loan arrangement with FC Porto was the only deal on the table.
