It's a suprising one as West ham seem to have a lot of strikers, i would have thought if they were going to bring another one in it would be someone with experience of fighting relegation, not a 23 year old Spaniard who has been sitting on the bench all season.

As I said I am prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt, seeing as it's been two seasons since we had a right back (Mears and Paintsall aside), although I did think it strange that he chose us over Liverpool, mainly as I remember him saying that he supported them as a child so
Also when you look at the two clubs, they are poles apart, yes we might be struggling at the moment but I don't remember Blackburn having two 10 million plus bids turned down in this window
