Tevez and mascherano to west ham??

[rodo]

Yeah! The Huth move to Boro was delayed cos Kenyon was "elsewhere" doing some business. Upton friggin Park


(actually he's probably round Cashley Cole's gaff)

it does beg the question if chelski don`t sign cole what exactly has he been up to

[Rich]

It reeks even more of the Russian Pound.

[lfc4ever]

doubt that msi sold their partof the players so hammers couldn't have paid full price for them, maybey hammers payed 10 million for 25% of the players, and msi trying to jack their price up a bit before selling permanantly...

MSI tried to buy the Hammers last year, sounds like someone (an MSI hammers fan?) is a member on both boards?

Something just isn't transparent.

[baronvonskidmark]

Does no-one think that this has anything to do with MSI owning their contracts and MSI looking to take over West Ham? It's probably the best sweetener you could imagine.

My money's on West Ham having new owners in the next couple of months.

[Diego]

Guys according to the BBC website its not a loan deal, but a permanent deal.
All Chelsea conspiracy theories are out the window......

no way mate as i said above, even if it's a permanent deal, it doesn't mean that, that they bough 100% of the player, they might have leased them, for a sum for say 4years and players make a 4 year contract, but west ham doesn't buy the players, so when in 2 years chelski buy them, msi get the profits, and chelski only have to pay west ham to rift their deals, they are worth nothing to west ham...

[Rich]

MSI own the players, and I believe if West Ham are bought by that group then I suppose West Ham have signed them, but West Ham cannot afford to pay market value for them two, especially when Tevez was bought 12 months ago for $22m!

[rodo]

if teves somehow ends up at chelsea surely someone has to look into it

[Slim]

If that is true about MSI buying the Hammers and thus taking the players with them, it raises questions about who actually buys and sells the players - the owners or the manager?? I'm sure the players are thrilled at being treated like pieces of meat.

[Rich]

But who? FA are as weak as they come. Chelsea just take the piss out of them - continually.

[Diego]

yes but, if west ham have bought them than msi don't own them anymore, witch is clearly not the case...

if west ham is not being bought up by msi, then surely they have leased the players to westham in a dodgy loan deal, the players can sign a deal, but the club doesn't own the players msi does...

it's a very complicated thing

[Rich]

The two guys in question are probably very happy with the deal, they know that West Ham are a stepping stone onto a bigger, richer European club, whether that is Chelski or somebody else.

[Rich]

Yeah, MSI will still 'own' them. Otherwise this deal wouldnt have happened

[Diego]

there's a player in the argentinian league, witch own 10% of himself, how is this all possible...

someone please get Lecter over here...

[animal magic]

Has a West Ham fan created some kind of parallel universe where you can play Championship Manager and it comes true?

[Diego]

Yeah, MSI will still 'own' them. Otherwise this deal wouldnt have happened

yes witch brings me back to the point, that west ham can't have bought the players...

but isn't a proffessional deal with a football club worthless, if the club doesn't own the players...
