Hackneyisblue Posted 6 August 2008 Posted 6 August 2008 Mattock is staying put, he knows that as soon as Wilfred Bouma is back there is no first team action for him, whereas at the walkers he'll be winning every weekend The problem is that The Reverend is right, Mattock is currently vastly over-rated (at the moment) and we will leak goals with players getting behind him, I'm still hoping for a proper left-back before Saturday.
Staf Posted 7 August 2008 Posted 7 August 2008 According to SSN Villa have had a bid accepted for Shorey and he is having a medical today.
bigneville Posted 7 August 2008 Posted 7 August 2008 According to SSN Villa have had a bid accepted for Shorey and he is having a medical today. Not only Shorey. They've had £5million bid accepted for Luke Young.
Staf Posted 7 August 2008 Posted 7 August 2008 Not only Shorey. They've had £5million bid accepted for Luke Young. Oh ye sorry i saw that. 5 million for Luke Young i didnt think he was that good although that goal v Spurs was pretty special.
breadandcheese Posted 7 August 2008 Posted 7 August 2008 I wouldnt shed a tear if Mattock went. I think he is vastly over-rated. He could be a great player in the future, but i feel people are putting him in the team on potential, not on how good he currently is. At least I'm not the only one still struggling to see what everyone else does.
DB11 Posted 13 August 2008 Posted 13 August 2008 Why's the other thread been locked? Anyway we know he won't be going now.

davieG Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 They're back; From Sky West Ham are keeping tabs on highly-rated Leicester City defender Joe Mattock, skysports.com understands. Mattock is regarded as one the most promising young players in England and he is the second youngest player to represent England Under 21s. The left-back made his debut for Leicester at the tender age of 16 and he has been earning rave reviews at the Walkers Stadium. The 18-year-old is regaded as one of the best young talents outside the Premier League and Leicester are widely believed to have fieled a number of enquires from clubs for Mattock. West Ham have held a long-term interest in Mattock and new Hammers boss Gianfranco Zola is monitoring his progress. The likes of Liverpool, Aston Villa, Everton and Sunderland have been credited with an interest in Mattock, but West Ham are hoping to steal a march on their rivals with doubts continuing to surround the future of on-loan defender Herita Ilunga. Ilunga is on a season long-loan from Toulouse, but the player has suggested he would be interested in a move to a bigger club if an offer came along and Mattock is thought to be on Zola's list of potential signings. Leicester are keen to keep hold of their prize asset as they look to win promotion from League One, but they could face a battle to ward off suitors when the transfer window reopens next month.

Unless new buyers have agreed a deal with West Ham Mattock will not be going there.
Darkzzz_ Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 I think it is common knowledge that he is going, it is just a matter of when and where.
Cropwellfox Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 Get rid as early in Jan as possible, and hope the cash we get is enough to buy Mark Davies outright.
Lovejoy Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 Get rid as early in Jan as possible, and hope the cash we get is enough to buy Mark Davies outright. I'd like that, but chances are with a young player the deal will consist majorly of add-ons, as opposed to a nice lump sum.
Jimmy Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 £2.5M+ with add ons and they can have him, Berner is a quality Left Back so is Powell
wirralsimon Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 Read the article carefully and you will see that the article doesn't actually claim anything new has happened. It's just a re-hash of old news to cover up for the fact that nothing is really happening. Simon
Head Honcho Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 No chance. Loan Maybe. I wouldn't be too sure am I right in saying that only have Ilunga as a dedicated LB there at the mo and he's due back in France at the end of the season.
Joe. Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 £2.5M+ with add ons and they can have him, Berner is a quality Left Back so is Powell I wouldn't go as far to say that
C-man Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 Probably the same article as the one in the summer, just replace Alan Curbishley with Gianfranco Zola and add the bit about Ilunga to give it a tad of creditability.
Darkzzz_ Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 I think the West Ham rumours are rubbish, I think the Villa rumours could hold some truth.
Ashley Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 He can leave us if he wants to, we've got good enough cover.
Legend_in_blue Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 He can leave us if he wants to, we've got good enough cover. Mattock is the cover! I'd rather have Powell or Berner playing LB tbh.
DB11 Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 Mattock is the cover!I'd rather have Powell or Berner playing LB tbh. Whichever one is playing, the other is cover So Mattock is not the only cover
