Ah bollocks

This was why I avoided him
I have owned him twice for “good “ runs
They kept no clean sheets and then he got injured both times

The Telegraph report that Thibaut Courtois has suffered an ankle injury making him a doubt for Chelsea's trip to Brighton. Meanwhile, Drinkwater is also "struggling for fitness" https://t.co/42HwzDlfAY

Chelsea struggling for numbers at this rate !

Shyte, I really didn't need this Full playing outfield bench, Krul my back up. Think I'll roll it, no one obvious, long term to get in for a -4. Will need a CS to make a profit. Otherwise everything was going so well, obviously too well

Well I didn't need that news when I'm already on -8! Will probably ditch him for Pickford soon but not for a hit this week.

Courtois injured wtf!!! Will need to take a hit now as Speroni is my backup.


Edit: Early kickoff might have the transfer ready to go in the hope of 11:29 team news

We should probably hold off on Friday transfers until after 1030pm too

"Courtois is fit to face Arsenal in the Carabao Cup semi-final second-leg at the Emirates after missing the Premier League victory over Brighton with a sprained ankle."

Andy Carroll out for up to 3 months, good for Arnie.

Lanzini out for up to a month, not good for me after bringing him in last week.

Kinda bad for Arnie too, he would have been depending on Lanzini to provide a lot of his services

And he will probably now drop into lanzini position
Chicharito could become an option
If he takes this chance he could offer us a decent 3rd striker option for end of season.

Alternatively Antonio may be played up front. He's due back from injury any time now

A reliable West Ham Twitter account has just posted that Arnie may be out for a few weeks with hammy injury.

Signed both him and Lanzini last week. You couldn't make it up.

He felt his hamstring against Bournemouth and continued on. He is still feeling it. He wasn’t due to play against Wigan anyway but he is now a doubt for Palace and Brighton. I’ll get further info today https://t.co/FmKSTyW1Io

Will update when more news comes available

I’ll be wildcarding if this is the case
Not going to limp along any longer
Don’t care if it’s the right or wrong move at this stage

I take it we don't know if Silva is back for good now or if he'll need to miss more games?

Edit - Wrong thread whoops

Arnie ----> Theo will be the easiest transfer I've made all season.

Now I am thinking of wildcarding
Forgot about him
I need to mix it up
Teams are all so similar now

I'm hesitant on Walcott, that Everton team doesn't scream goals. Mkhi is only 0.5 more, I'd be more willing to take a punt on him.

The more ya look at it the more 352 seems to be the way to go/stay

Definitely, I'd rather have the likes of Shaqiri in a 3-5-2 than Wilson in a 3-4-3. There's plenty of options in midfield than you can swap in and out based on form and fixtures. The same can't be said for the cheap striker spot.

Lanzini is 4, Arnie 2-3 but not confirmed at moment and hernandez won’t go this window I suspect unless a stupid offer comes in

When you have 0 shots on target and your manager comes out and says "We need to be more boring" (Spurs defeat), I would be very hesitant in investing in Midfielders and Strikers from that team.

Particularly when it's not an insubstantial investment

Any idea on Simpson lads? Down as 75% needing match practice.

Is he likely to get his place back straight away?

Would imagine so.
Amartey who has been playing there instead of him is really a cm.

Hmm arnie out makes it tough, I'd have enough to bring in martial but I'm not sure what's going to happen with sanchez coming in

Shame about Arnie,
He had a nice fixture home to palace too

Speaking with Marko Arnautovic he confirmed he felt the hamstring slightly during the Bournemouth game,but played thru it. However after having a scan done the results showed a tear. He said he will be out for approx 4 weeks. #WHUFC https://t.co/BhGuttFRjq
