We need someone like him but better than him.

He's been used effectively this season though.

This is why I think Koeman will buy him, for the same roll next season. He dosent start him, but you do need a decent play to come off the bench and help change a game at the end, he has been doing that for us and this is why I think Koeman will want him.
You dont get much up front for 12m or there about, if he was much better then fee would be much higher, a player like Valencia is a squad player and the price reflects that
 
A couple of stories in the Echo highly praising Enner and suggesting other clubs are interested and a revelation that he wouldn't cost as much as originally thought.
It's obvious where they got that inside info. The club are seriously considering buying him but know that it would underwhelm the fans, who've had their hopes built up for big names, so they're preparing the ground just as they did in December when they preped the fans that Gabbiadini was no longer considered good enough to forestall any questions if he was bought by someone else.
 
i've always liked him from seeing him with ecuador etc, but i dunno. He's like west ham's 5th choice striker, i'd be happy enough getting him for about £7m to be our 4th choice striker. I'm starting to think maybe it's an easy one for management as it saves on scouting etc. when more time can be focused on the other 6 or 7 players we need to sign.

Possibly getting william jose and rooney in would see our striking options sorted almost instantly ... i don't see us selling lukaku.
 
Got to say i like the lad. Seems to have a decent attitude, not kicked off about playing time and when he has been used, for the most part it has benefited the team and performances. If we were to spend 10 mil ish on him and he performed as he has now i would be happy with that. EL next season as well so chances are he might get more game time.
 
find this statement a bit ridiculous since he's come off the bench a load of times and changed the game for the positive.

Because we need to get players in who can get us in the top 4 and have the depth in the squad so, I'm hoping that by the time the summer is over we wouldn't need to rely on a player who can't get in the West ham team
 
I would say he is worth a punt for less than 10M but not more. As long as Kone and Niasse move on. We still have Lookman and DCL coming through. He does provide something else and we will need a bigger squad next time around. Perhaps a better idea than gambling 10M on someone we've only seen on youtube.

True that, he knows how this player works with Lukaku, League Cup and EL he can start them, he will be a 4th place striker and im sure he knows it, were not really going to go out and spend more money on a striker to play second fiddle
