Seems a lot of money for a 30 year old. Perhaps we need to ask more for Stockley.
12m these days just about gets you a strikers left toe, so i think it's decent business for a striker who with the right service will get you 10-12 goals a season.
West Ham’s inability to finish chances is seriously endangering them. They create enough but are dreadful in front of goal so zings could make the difference if he can stay fit. Which he can’t
Ings is one of those players earned moves to "bigger" PL clubs after doing well at "smaller" ones, then struggled. He would have been better off staying at Soton.

West Ham are a fairly big established Premier League club. Leicester similar and also won the whole thing a few years back. In terms of spending power it's frightening how far they are away from the even bigger boys in the league.

Heard a West Ham ex pro on Talksport this morning who said the opposite. Not creating enough chances is the issue he said.

West Ham is owned by fairly rich British businessmen, Leicester by a wealthy Thai family that makes its money from duty free airport shops which made no money during the pandemic .. neither can come close to clubs with the spending power of Arab nation rulers or American billionaire owners

So for our £300k, or even freebies, we can't really expect more than bogeys, or sick notes. .

Played in over 80% of his teams league fixtures over the last 3.5 years…

West Ham also have a Czech billionaire who owns 27% and is thought to have an option to buy the rest of the club in around the next 12 months.
They’ll lose Rice in the summer for good money, but if they stay up and the Czech part owner takes a higher stake, they’ll be extremely rich.
Be great if West Ham and Everton go down. Fat Frank at Everton is drowning. He’ll get a job at Palace or somewhere like that next, then a Championship club pushing for promotion, but by 2026 he’ll be an MP in a Tory stronghold. That’s his trajectory, nailed on

The window is definitely starting to get going now…
- Ings to West Ham
- Trossard to Arsenal
- Edun to Charlton
It’s all happening!
i think Villa paid £25m for Ings in 2021…so West Ham getting him for 50% cheaper 15 months down the line isn’t a bad deal.
