Wow, WBA reject a 22 million pound bid for Berahino.  That is literally absurd.  The only thing more absurd than bidding 22 million for Berahino is rejecting it
Prices have gone crazy this summer. This new premier league tv deal. Everybody has money now. Nobody has to sell players because they all already have money to spend on new players.

I think it was a good decision by WBA. More important to keep your good players. I think Tottenham should look abroad rather than domestically for new players. Only way they won't end up paying through the nose for someone.

Are they holding our for more money?

That's insane, to reject such a big offer. If the Spurs would be willing to shell that much money, they're probably better off going somewhere else. Berahino is promising, but he's not worth that much.

Apparently now they value Berahino at 30 million

That's nuts.

They could easily buy someone better with that amount. I remember Pierre Aubameyang was rated at about that amount when he was rumored to Arsenal, and Auba is miles ahead than Berahino.

I hope you guys buy him for £30 million. That would be hilarious.

Im fine buying young players at a discount because they are young and you are paying for potential that may not materialize.  See Erik Lamela. 

but if you are gonna spend 30 mill I would rather get somebody more established, Like Roberto Soldado  (whoops)

Tottenham now readying a bid of 23M plus incentives.

I think that would still be a very good deal for Spurs.  He and Kane might form an interesting duo, if Poch wants to play two up front.

Apparently Heung Min-Son is currently in London having his medical prior to completing a move to Tottenham from Bayern Leverkeusen. 

23 million pounds. 

Below quote from Leverkeusen football director

"Philip Harmeling ?@PhilipHarmeling  2m2 minutes ago
Rudi Völler about Heung-Min Son: ''We're ready to let him go''. Son to to join Tottenham for around 30M€ in the 48h."

Looks like Arsenal is going to miss out on a target yet again...

http://www.espnfc.us/story/2582756/grzegorz-krychowiak-confirms-sevilla-stay-amid-arsenal-links

Man, if we really have £200 million in the war chest, and Wenger will only sign one player until the window closes, when there are CLEAR holes at the Central Midfield position, as well as maybe another Striker, I'd start to believe what Gary Neville is saying.

Frustrating...

Maybe it's time for Wenger and Kroenke to step aside and let Usmanov take a stab at running the club.  At least the big fellow seems to have plenty of ambition...

Surprised that Leverkeusen is ready to give up on Son, still like his upside though as he's so young.

Apparently him and his father is pushing the deal through, Leverkeusen didn't want him to leave.

Arsenal has found their new striker.

2 goals in 4 games and both ended up the game winners. 100% on shots on goal too, 2 shots taken, both were in the back of the net. The search is over!

His name is Own Goal.

So, West Ham lost to Leicester and Bournemouth, but defeated Arsenal and Liverpool, convincingly.

Which is the real West Ham?
