I'd have him back, great at this level even if he does mess up a bit.
I remember Sammy 'f'kin' Koejoe upfront for us (just checked ) 33 games 3 goals.
What I remember most clearly about him was he was utter gash. [Post edited 28 Jul 2020 13:59]

I'll give you Sammy Koejoe, and I'll raise you a steve Slade. My god we've had some shite over the last 20 odd years |  |

Amos is a Tottenham player or have I misread your post? |
haha, yep, didn't make it that clear. Was meaning more if by the end of the Eze sale we end up with £15/17m profit/cash in the bank, plus Amos and Hugill then I think we would have done pretty well. That could be one of them acting as part of the Eze deal and the other signed for a good price. Either way to get a decent pro that scored a good number of goals for us and somebody whose got potential and I'd hope will kick on this year, plus decent amount of cash we could use to strengthen in other areas isn't that bad an outcome. |  | | |

I'm probably oversimplifying but would rather not get into player plus cash stuff with Eze. Just give us as much actual fcuking cash as Les, Lee, Andy and Gary the kit man can carry. No torn bills please.
Would be happy to see Hugill back though definitely, if it could be done sensibly. |  | | |

I fully expect Warnock to try and sign every striker we’re linked with now 🤨 | | | |

If a footballer is on, say £37,000 a week, and the club that wants to buy him has a wage ceiling of, say £20,000 a week (and doesn't even want to pay that really) then player is not moving from A to B and without somebody somewhere budging, and it's rarely the player. West Ham will have to take the £17k difference, add it up over the rest of his deal, and pay him a portion of it, otherwise he'll sit there and go out on loan until the deal is up. |
I guess you're more hardline on the latter loan scenario than I am. IMO the potential for another Wells situation to fck us over is still outweighed by the impact of having a player we couldn't afford otherwise - just gotta try and have better provisions in place next time. |  | | |

Yep you just know he will end up there |  |
| And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles
Brian Moore

His loan spell there before wasn’t a great success though was it. |  |

Boro fan but had a horrible loan spell there already, hard to say if NW there would tempt him to a second bite.
Didn't want to mention with Moore in the offing but NW being after the same strikers as you isn't a ringing endorsement... | | | |

Either he's going to have to take a wage cut, or more likely West Ham are going to have to swallow a percentage of his contract there to shift him. |
I posted elsewhere, assuming a difference between his ‘stated wage’ and QPR’s ‘stated Wage limit’, over 18 months, this is in the order of £1.7m alone in salary difference, let alone Wet Spams valuation of Hugill... makes you think it’s probably better to buy shankland for £4m and Moore for £3m?... probably equates to the same ‘amortised’ figure? |  | | |

Plus knock on effect. If you give Hugill more than your wage cap then a bunch of other players at the club start thinking "hang on a minute, if he's getting that..." |  | | |

Wells 15 goals in 18 games probably no re sale value
Hugill 15 goals in 42 games possible re sale value
Both players are valued at £5m
Wells for me all day long.
Better value out there than Hugill...Kieffer Moore being an example. |
Different players i'd suggest. Wells more of a striker, Hugill more of a centre forward, probably what we need most.
Shame Nahki left, though. He made a mistake. |  | | |

I agree they both have different styles of play but if the manager decides to play just One up top what type of player is required ?
A player who barges into defenders and generally makes a nuisance of himself or someone who scores goals ?

Perspective....Celtic have had a bid of 5m turned down for Peterborough striker Ivan Toney.
24 goals in League 1.
I think Hugill could have got 20 this season had he started more often.
The price of a striker is nuts. Moore seems like a bargain at 2m.
Hugill on a perm and Parrot on loan would make me very happy this season. With Ramkilde and the Orient player as back up. |  |

If the choice is between £15m + Hugill or £20m and then signing Moore, then I'd go with the latter. I like Hugill but he's not a £5m player, and he doesn't become one simply because West Ham paid a ridiculous amount for him 2 years ago. That's their problem not ours. | | | |

Well, generally, a centre forward with better back to goal and hold up play, aerial play etc. is supposedly required to give oneself a platform to play down the other end of the pitch. You have one up top and it's a striker, probably going to be less chances for the rest of the team and less possession, territory that sort of thing. Theoretically. It's why somebody like Micheal Owen was so crap once teams stopped playing two up front.
Nahki, with his superb work ethic, though, bless him, i do like that guy. Plus his great accent, worth something surely? | | | |

If we play with a lone striker, I think we need both types of lone striker available depending on the oppo. Last year we sometimes played with two up front pre-January but if we only played with one we had the option of playing with Wells who could run in behind if the oppo had a slow and/or high back line or Hugill who could occupy strong and/or deep back lines.
Ideally, we would need one of each again next season. |  |

Warbs frequently adapted the 4-2-3-1 to a 4-1-3-2 when we had Wells and Hugill at the same time.
You can't rely on one anyway, we saw that in the lockdown. |  | | |

I'd be inclined to think that was more to do with having to play in a Pulisball team though. |  |
