So watching the game even the commentators are saying that Parrot and Solomon going to be West Ham players by the weekend, even mentioned the Celtic player.

Soloman 90% at present.

Hopefully the Swansea striker rather than Parrot.

I'm saying nothing about Parrott at present. I said it's a story I will post after window closes.

Just out of conversation, imo, Vipotnik would suit WH much better.

Are we in with a chance of landing the Swansea striker? I would like to see him come to West Ham.

I've heard good things about Parrot, but the Dutch league is notorious for serving up players who score hatfuls there but bomb in England. Kezman and Marco Boogers spring to mind.

Apparently so. It seems that West Ham are quite rightly keeping a lid on it in case it fails. Last Thursday, West Ham agreed a straight fee of 21 m. For the player, although 2 m in add-ons was quoted, it is believed to be a bit more.
Southampton had a bid for the player accepted, but West Ham have topped it, obviously Saints can come back with a counter bid.



I don't think the contract of payment has been agreed, and terms have definitely not been agreed with the player, but that should cause no problem.

The next few days will tell the story. Taty and Bowen cannot carry the goals on their own. Solomon will help, but a quality striker is needed.

Hammer Parrot has 13 goals in 112 appearances in the English Championship and League 1. The Swansea player is a much better bet.

Cheers for the info, guys. Sounds promising at last.

West Ham will not be signing Vipotnik, who's as slow as a tortoise, and has signed a massive contract at Swansea. Id rather have Parrot. Dont judge him on his younger years in English football. Kane was vang average in his younger days, being loaned out here, there and everywhere, but he didnt turn out, had he, and Parrot reminds me a bit of Kane, not pacey but has an eye for a goal, so Im.

? We sign Troy Parrot and Soloman, as I cannot believe fans are saying we shouldn't for political reasons. Utter madness. ⚒️ ⚒️ ⚒️

Agreed, Whorya. Solomon should be signed, but comparing Parrot to Kane is like comparing a prime Maradona to JWP. Kane scored 14 in 50 in the Championship. Parrot's last 2 loans were to Preston in the Championship, where he scored 3 goals in 32 games, and MK Dons in League One, where he scored 8 goals in 41 appearances.

I'd say, with those stats, signing Parrot is a massive risk.

The Soloman issue is difficult. Read the article on Greenstreethammers. I'm not convinced by the argument that those against his transfer are doing so for political reasons. It seems more about his personality.
