Outgoing? Peck

[andy m]

It's now moved on to West Ham after Burrow and Peck.

Either we are touting him around to cause a bidding war or there is some really poor journalism..

Or there are numerous clubs after him because he is a very good player.

 

[Bladesman]

They going to buy Peck or not?

 

[Davalon]

Surely being a target usurps considering the possibility of potentially tracking progress

 

[MKY]

I’m a little itk here & the whisperings are he doesn’t want to move back to London. Doesn’t mean he won’t of course.

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

Expecting this to transfer to come into focus in the next few days.

One can but hope. What else!.
Had a good cameo late on in the Chessie match.

West Spam are being linked to almost everyone so for. If, and its a big if, that they are serious about Peck, I would have expected a bid already.

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

Entering the last two years of his contract. Has the club finally learned or is it another Berge/Ndiaye/Hamer situation?

Be more happy to keep him and let his contract run down.

 

[Sithblade]

Can't be leaving, he's looking forward to an exciting season ahead for him and boys

 

[Bladeloyal]

Top lad ,top player

I’d be surprised if west ham make a move before they’ve sold more players. Selling Fernandes doesn’t get them out of the red yet.

I wonder if it's just agent talk at this point. These leaks don't seem to be very solid ones at the moment and I am sure they are aware we will want a high fee for Peck.

The problem is United have put themselves in a really weak negotiating position. News of the owners not paying the agreed price to the previous owner, gives the impression they don’t have a pot to piss in and are likely to sell players at a discounted price. So if we do sell Peck, it won’t be for the money we should be asking for.

West Ham employee is very very reliable he’s that reliable the athletic use him as a source e.g David ornstein and co

That News doesn't put us in a weak negotiating position
Actually having no money and the accounts looking poor for FFP would do, but even then we can still drive for a decent deal.
Having less than a year on a players contract puts any club in a weak negotiating position

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

We'll be pickled without Peck.

TBF, if they know there are bids in for their players and they're likely to leave, they can go ahead and make bids/purchases first. Look at Villa dropping 50m on the Swiss lad before Rogers has gone.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Gut feeling says Peck will start first game against Brum. After that
...?

It might give the impression that they don’t have a pot to piss in, but that isn’t necessarily the reality. It’s quite possible that negotiations are taking place around the price and what’s owed, and both sides are seeking to strengthen their position through various actions they are taking, some in the public domain and others not.

........ but if we sign this Pepple lad from further down the Rumour Mill and Corban Piper from Wellington Phoenix.......

'Corban Piper picked a Peck of pickled Pepple'.

I'll get mi coat.......

 

[MayorOJC]

Good player and very likeable guy, but a much easier type of player to replace at a lower fee than the likes of Hamer.

That would mean we would sign a player permanently... We'll replace with a loanee..
Fortunately we have Arblaster and Shackleton, both will be spun as new signings...

 

[Champagneblade]

I’m still curious how we “play Gus more centrally” and still keep Peck.

It would seem strange for Plan A to involve stopping your player of the year in O’Hare.

Peck moves for maximum cash. We slot Gus in alongside Jairo. O’Hare plays no 10. Gus occasionally moves further forward when Arblaster comes in and if O’Hare needs rotating.

Still leaves Rothwell giving experience from the bench.

 

[HeySethUTB]

West Ham making tonnes of cash via sales. They need to. But, nevertheless, £25 million or no deal.

I still think this is more of a “look at us” peck, in the knowledge he’s only got a year left after this season. It’s a long game.
