Why would Milan be looking to sell Honda so soon? They only signed him two years ago.

Why would Honda want to stay there when they are so **** is a more apt question?

He wants to come to a real team.

Straight up, Honda is amazing. I don't really think we need him but I'll take him without a doubt. He gives you a 40 yard distance free kick threat as well. Mother ****ing hammer of a shot.

Because he is nearing the end of his 3 year contract and I suppose they are looking to re-coup somewhere near what they paid for him in the knowledge that in 1 year's time, he will leave for nothing and it could be, Milan might feel he has been a bit disappointing, but I have always thought he's looked to very decent player for Japan in World Cups

Honda is no doubt an attempt to boost our appeal in the far east.

Sensible idea

He was a free transfer, didn't realise his contract was so short mind.

I couldn't see a reference to this anywhere else but Slav has apparently been talking up Besiktas midfielder Oguzhan Ozyakup http://www.90min.com/posts/2681802-slav ... mesut-ozil

I can see Noble being fazed out quite soon, I just don't see how he gets in our team soon.

The longer this anti-gravity run continues, the more terrifying an injury to Cresswell becomes. Even just 3 or 4 games out could blow us out of our tracks in a way I don't think even losing Payet for a spell would.

We've got one space in the squad free with Amalfitano departing, it needs to be a meaty left back.

Given our table position, we should be able to attract players that wouldn't normally be interested in West Ham a few years back. Makes all the sense in the world to take advantage because this won't happen often.

I do realize there are some restrictions in terms of players in / players out.. but from the sound of it we have space for at least one player in.

We could sign a new full-back and some people would wonder if Nobes was gonna lose his place, this place is unbelievable sometimes

“We did the majority of the job in August and I’m happy with the team, with the squad.” Bilic is quoted by talkSPORT.

“It doesn’t mean we aren’t going to bring someone in if possible or offload one or two but nothing major in terms of numbers.

“If something exceptional comes our way you never know but we have done our job.”

I would say that there will be no time that Bilic will turn down an opportunity to sign Tore, so if he's available we'll be after him.
