    Arsenal scored against us using the long ball and it was good to see actually.

    When did we use a long ball to score against you?

    Yes I do - but even greyhounds can score shitloads playing off players with as much creativity as Berbatov & Ashton Smile

    We got screwed there - only £7.5m and no agreement on Benayoun. We should have forced a deal for Benayoun+ cash, given the interest in Bellers from other clubs.

    Well done West Ham - that's twice you've done us in 2 transfer windows.

    At least we got Mascherano. ok

    Agreed, but £7.5m was the lowest price that I saw being bandied around in the last few weeks and other clubs were interested.

    So we've sold him to WH at a low price and they're trying to jack up the price on Benayoun.

    Their negotiators are clearly better than ours.

    Thing is, we wanted to sell Bellamy, they don't want to sell Benayoun. They're always going to have the upper hand in negotiations because of this.

    Yeah but they wanted to buy Bellamy - so did other people. We should have told them is Benayoun plus £2m, or screw themselves and we sell Bellamy to someone else for £7m.

    Spose so, but I'd rather have £5.5 million and no Benayoun to be honest Razz.

    This is of course a point of view CT.

    But I can't recall the last time we got a good deal selling a player since Robbie Fowler to Leeds.

    You've got a profit on someone who had a poor season.

    That is a good deal.

    craig bellamy reunited with lee bowyer: looks like west ham will be getting the neutrals vote next season then.
    Id happily pay good money to watch those two c**ts get hung out to dry. All you need now is Joey -King Scalley- barton for a dream team of cocks.

    Yeah but we don't want to sell Benayoun...You wanted to sell Bellamy and he wanted to come to us...we gave you £7.5m. Can't see what the problem is.

    Who's the someone else though?, I dont really recall many other clubs being interested to be honest, all I heard was Newcastle, and it was reported that would be a swap deal for owen which Rafa clearly didn't fancy

    Blackburn...not being funny but we took Blackburn's captain and McCarthy said in this transfer window he'd leave them for us. This is for obvious reasons...so he wouldn't choose Blackburn over us.

    nothing wrong for you but in the past so many things. also his face is far too ugly to be on tv. and he is rubbish. Its all well and good being partisan and bigging up your team Deano but come on admit they are wankers. it will be cathartic for you.

    @ Deano

    Bellamy wouldn't of gone back to Blackburn I dont think, they clearly were just a stepping stone onto bigger and better things, it didn't work at a big club, Liverpool, so he chose to join a team who's future now looks bright and where he will get first team football, I think it's a good deal for us, Bellamy and West Ham.

    Pssh, we were only linked because it makes a good story. Big Sam and co seem desperate to keep Owen, i seriously doubt they would want to swap him for someone alot of fans hate.
