Arsenal getting dumped out of the League cup may mean they are now more willing to loan out some squad players. Given how we turned Le Coq into a superstar we should be high on their list of suitors
Might as well have a rumour on here.....Charlton and a few others looking at Dan Sweeney, midfielder at Dulwich Hamlet. Pretty sure I watched him Saturday but can't tell you if he was any good because I'd had a few.

Can't believe I'm even reading this make-it-up-as you-go-along thread... I must get out more, and so should some of you!! Give me a shout when we sign Ronaldo, I hear he's up for a challenge!
Come on give the guys a break, there's no smoke without fire with many of these rumours. To suggest Ronaldo is just taking the pxxx 'cos bringing in a washed up 39 year old, 20 stone, light of a former era, really would be a challenge - for us and him!
Not a rumour but Igor just about to go under the pen for an operation tonight. Won't be back for a fair while, will take time to be able to start walking on it again (heel area) let alone full fitness.
According to Wiki.......... Vaz Te was treated awfully by Wet Spam:
Vaz Tê signed for then Championship club West Ham United on 31 January 2012, for an undisclosed fee on a two-and-a-half year deal with an option for a third year.[18] Vaz Tê made his debut for the club, coming on as an 89th-minute substitute for Carlton Cole in the London derby against Millwall on 4 February. The game finished 2–1 to West Ham United.[19] On 21 February 2012, Vaz Tê scored his first goal for the Hammers, in a 4–1 victory at Blackpool.[20] Nicky Maynard and Gary O'Neil also scored their first professional goals for the club.[20] Vaz Tê scored his first hat-trick for West Ham on 14 April 2012, in West Ham United's 6–0 home victory against Brighton & Hove Albion.[21] West Ham finished 3rd behind Southampton entering the play-offs against Cardiff City. They won the first leg at the Cardiff City Stadium 2–0 and the second leg 3–0 at the Upton Park, with Vaz Tê scoring the second goal of the second game. West Ham progressed to the play-off final with a 5–0 aggregate victory. In the play-off final at Wembley on 19 May 2012, Vaz Tê scored the winning goal in the 87th minute.[22] It was the 24th goal Vaz Tê had scored in the 2011–12 season.[3]
He was in the starting line-up from the beginning of the 2012–13 season scoring his first Premier League goal for West Ham in their 2–1 away win at QPR on 1 October 2012.[23] In the very next game, on 6 October 2012 at home to Arsenal, Vaz Tê dislocated his shoulder, an injury which kept him out of the team for nearly 3 months.[24] Vaz Tê returned to the side on 29 December in an away game at Reading, he was brought on with 23 minutes remaining and his side down 1–0 and went on to miss a glaring opportunity to draw the match, as West Ham lost.[25] Sam Allardyce said it was one of the greatest ever chances to score in the Premier League and the Portuguese striker agreed, and apologised to the Hammers fans.[26]
He started the 2013–14 season as a 90th-minute substitute, replacing Joe Cole, in a 2–0 home win against Cardiff City.[27] He scored his first goal of the season in a League Cup second round fixture against Cheltenham Town on 27 August 2013, when he scored the opening goal from a free-kick in 42nd minute of the match, which ended a 2–1 win for West Ham.[28] He later received a Goal of the Month club award for that goal.[29] After the Cheltenham win, on 28 August 2013, Vaz Tê handed in a transfer request. His statement regarding this said, "The statistics are evident to all but, despite this, it has been made obvious to myself and my representatives that I am not in the manager's plans. Therefore, it is with a heavy heart that I submit a transfer request and look to join a club where my approach to the game will be appreciated."[30] He has remained at West Ham for at least until the winter transfer period and has committed himself to the club.[31] Following his transfer request Vaz Te played four games in September 2013, scoring once and three games in October scoring twice, in games against Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City. These proved to be his last goals for the club.[32] In his next game, on 27 October 2013, he dislocated his shoulder against Swansea City.[33] He did not return to the first team until 15 April 2014 when he played 12 minutes against Arsenal in a 1-3 defeat.[34] In the 2014-15 season he was rarely picked by manager Sam Allardyce making only four league appearances and one in the league cup.[35] His last game came on 22 November 2014 in a 2-1 away defeat to Everton and on 17 January 2015, his contract was terminated by the club.[35][36]
