Well, it had to happen didn't it? While all others were dropping like flies around him, West Ham United's most expensive signing Andy Carroll seemed to thrive and NOT get injured, as he had previously done throughout his Hammer's career. However the striker who had recently been 'bigging up' his claim for a place in the England squad whilst at the same time 'trolling' Chelsea's now ousted manager Jose Mourinho, has succumbed to a slight niggle.

Informed rumour has it that Sam Allardyce's Sunderland are contemplating a massive £8.5 Million bid for West Ham defender James Tomkins when the January transfer window opens.

Ex - Hammers manager Sam Allardyce, now holding the reigns at Sunderland, has earmarked James Collins as a main signing when the January transfer window opens. Collins' contract expires at the end of the season , and as such West Ham might possibly recoup £2.5 Million at the absolute max in exchange for his services and think that it might be a good bit of business, in the short term!
