He wasn't a 100million player when he played for rice, why is it a 100m shoes to fill?? My goodness.

After so much talk about West Ham not making signings, it looks like they’re marking some solid moves. Hope this works out for them.

Declan rice was never worth that much so Alvarez can rest easy.

He won't be under that much pressure at west ham.

Rice is not worth 100 million. This is ridiculous. In that case mbappe is worth a billion

Edson is going to be a good fit in the premier league, his style of play suits for the physicality the premier league is

West ham also just signed James ward prowce, I think they look better in midfield now than they did with rice
