West Ham manager David Moyes has confirmed his club doesn’t have enough money to spend on new signings in January.
Well maybe if the club had a scouting system and manager that could spot the talent of the future and had the vision to use them we wouldn't have go looking elsewhere .
Once again we are a club with an aging SQUAD , why have we not planned to recify this ? .

We say similar every window Clay .
It’s down to Sullivan isn’t it ? New contracts or extensions for aging over the hill players like Cresswell , Ogbonna and now maybe Fornals , Coufal, Soucek etc (as an example) cos it’s cheaper than sourcing improvements.

Could add Fabianski , Antonio and Ings to that group , along with the injury prone Zouma who moves like hes 5 years older , and why did we even bring in the likes of Ings and Cornet .

short in pretty much all positions judging by our recent squad outings.
not sure who in the youth set up could cover full backs, central mid we seem ok ish but not a lot of creativity without pacman / kudos. Up front speaks for itself.
If alvarez gets injured we are snookered. Think he has been our best buy an absolute beast.
Would target another RB and cover for LB, a ready to go CB (people sniffy about dyer , but id have him as back up, been there and done it).
Apart from liverpool debacle oggy/the greek and auguerd / zouma have done ok.
Likelyhood is nothing incoming with some outgoing 1st.

Yeah , but what exactly has Dier been and done well , that is worth us bringing him to the club ? we need players for the future not ones that can be the backup to ok performers , especially if we want to progress .
