pete 318 Posted January 27, 2014 Seems to think his Italian loanees are at West Ham to propel them forward for the World Cup. They are here because they are not good enough for their parent clubs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanaryOne 0 Posted January 27, 2014 Oh come on if they had signed for City you would be wetting yourself about them , better than our tired old loanee from Newcastle i expect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I''m sure he knows the truth. But, he''s hardly likely to come out with it in public, is he ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Juggy 0 Posted January 27, 2014 Hang about.... Norwich fans were wetting themselves with excitement at the prospect of signing a 30 year old who hadn''t played for Italy since 2010 and had scored all of his international goals against non entities like the Faroe Islands and Lithuania.West Ham have just signed two players of similar standard and suddenly they are rubbish?I''d have Nocerino in a heartbeat, and Borriello is the Italian number 10 that many claim that we for some reason need? Probably better than Elmander (e.g. Definitely better than Elmander). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hertfordyellow 460 Posted January 27, 2014 I have not seen either of them play so am not going to judge them just yet, however Milan are really not doing well at all and the squad lacks a bit of quality, this isn''t the Milan of old with a huge squad of talent.

Hackedoff 0 Posted January 27, 2014 Both players have been shadows of their former selves and realistically Nocerino only has a slight chance of making The WC squad. Likewise Nocerino is a good signing but Boriello is pretty pi$$ poor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hackedoff 0 Posted January 27, 2014 They have a 15yr old wonderkid who''s just started training with the 1st team. Maybe we can have him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
