I know it’s tradition - but the West Ham bubbles are dumb. Talk about not intimidating.

Iwobi looks strong and athletic. I know he is dump but Brendan Rodgers (or was it PoP) said physique is everything.

Maybe a cheeky bid from Klopp for Iwobi who is running his contract down? Would he be an upgrade on Origi - more mobile, capable of playing from the sides as well as up top?

Antonio is wank. He's a bulkier version of Milan Baros. Head down, look at the ball and run, but at least Baros could occasionally see a pass. Antonio just runs fast and stops, then starts looking around like me for my keys the morning after a session on the ale.

I'm struggling to think of things I wouldn't do to ensure Iwobi never wears a Liverpool shirt in my lifetime.

West Ham on top at the minute. They do have some quality about them in attack but Arnautovic hasn't turned up.

What's the general consensus on this lad? Looks to me like he'd be a decent addition to our squad, a young lad that could learn a lot from Fabinho. Would also cover two positions in the match day squad, as I believe he's also a centre half.

Good player.

He's just signed a new long-term contract, he was due to be out of contract in the summer so it's unlikely he's going anywhere soon.  But he's one to keep an eye on, think he's really developed well under Pellegrini this season.

Iwobi is such an average player that can look good on occasions.  It's even more glaring that he's practically in the side in place of Ozil.

Surely for all Iwobi's hard graft Ozil's creativity is worth more to the team.

Pity he's signed a new deal, would've been a clever pick up on tribunal-set fee. Probably the correct decision from his point of view though, as long as Pelligrini remains in charge.

More a centre half than anything for me.  Very limited in midfield, but a talent no doubt.

Absolutely monstrous gap in quality between Arnautovic/Anderson and the rest of West Ham’s attack/midfield
If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

Doesn't seem limited for a DM to me, just needs the correct guidance, when to play forward etc.
