The whole thing is stupid, makes everyone look bad. Everyone involved would be better off if they kept it quiet. Edited 2 August 2021 by FoxesWalk 1

Not quite, footballers tend to take home about 54% of their annual salary with the other 46% income tax and NIC. That's their standard employed wages. Image rights and other stuff is different. 1

FoxesWalk Posted 2 August 2021 Posted 2 August 2021 Ex-WHU Employee (who is reliable) says West Ham aren’t close to Pereira and only enquired about a loan https://www.hammers.news/transfer-news/sadly-matheus-pereira-blow-for-west-ham-as-ex-drops-update/ 1
Pliskin Posted 2 August 2021 Posted 2 August 2021 Could well end up here. He wants out and WBA know that they really can’t afford to have him on the books and him not want to be there. Like flair says we might work a deal out and then send Sowah on loan. Which works for all parties and potentially WBA pocket some money and don’t need to spend it on a winger. 1

Dusty Posted 2 August 2021 Posted 2 August 2021 I’d find this very underwhelming if it happened. I don’t think he’s a big upgrade at all. 3 1

Hollyfox Posted 2 August 2021 Posted 2 August 2021 I just hope we sign him in time for Friday night. I'm going out with my West Brom mate, to watch them v Bournemouth who absolutely raves about him. I can just sit there all smug, let him know we've got their best player, we're playing at Wembley on Saturday, and if that fails, just talk about how many times Sir Jamie wound up the Brummie Rd end so many times, as me and him sat in there. 😄 Never forgave him when we sat in SK3 a few years back, when Cambiaso steered one into his own net and he just kept giggling to himself and nudging me.😄😄 1

Sounds exactly like perez did before he joined, no? I dont think he’s bad, but he’s not going to set the world alight. He’s not an out and out winger and we’ve seen the issues that causes. He feels like the sort of player we’d need to upgrade again in a year or 18 months time. 3

Yeah good numbers on the front of it, but 4 of those goals were penalties and he wouldn’t be taking those here. He was also the main attacking outlet for the team and received the ball all the time. As I say, his number are worse than Perez’s at Newcastle in only a slightly worse team. He’s also an attacking midfielder being played on the wing which is the same issue as perez. He’s good at set pieces, left footed which gives us different options but he’s just nothing too special. 1
Leeds Fox Posted 2 August 2021 Posted 2 August 2021 From his official Twitter account. Doesn’t mention who the offer came from.

The problem with special is it would cost the club an arm and a leg and we are not in the 50 million market. Pereira is a solid quality player at an affordable price.

No but no one is. I have news for you- Mahrez left 3 years ago. but not a big upgrade on what we have? you are off your rocker mate.. Edited 2 August 2021 by MPH 3

Hard to see an outright purchase at that price, though I could see offering a package with extras that approximated that if he comes in and does the job for us. Say 15 mill and then another 10 in extras if he can give us, IDK, 12-6, something around there. EDIT: that said, he is so much more technically adept compared to Ayoze, it just makes much more sense imagining him cutting inside to rampage off the RW. He can break down a low block. Yes, he is arguably at his best in the middle, but he can at least attack the way Mahrez used to, and if Maddison gets hurt, he is someone who can also play as an AM. IDK, he plays all over fairly competently, but you make a fair point in your post, I admit. Edited 2 August 2021 by vanity
