It'll be a lot to do with money. We've made some business decisions over football ones in recent times. Murray, Gayle, Jedinak. The art is balancing them with other activity. There is every chance we sell someone with money in transfer fee and/or wages being factors. We would rather not have too many £60k per week players as back up. Agree, also both mcarthur and cabaye only have 12 months left any offer of 8 to 10m. Is good business sense to sell. I would like to keep Tomkins but the original reason he left West Ham was to be a starter. While many of us rate him, it seems as if de Boer doesn't certainly not as a starter.

I stated recently on here that I felt Dann was better than Tomkins. I also feel that Tomkins only had a good run when playing along side Sakho (and hey who wouldn't, Sakho could make any defensive partner look good). I think there will be players going and I wouldn't be too disappointed if Tomkins was one of them. Edited by premier fan (08 Aug 2017 9.12pm)

When Sakho got injured against Spurs we were s***e until Tomkins came back and then were a lot steadier again at the back. Of course Dann was also out of it.

I thought Tomkins would be ideal to play right centre back in the back 3?

One possible reason for Tomkins' lack of pre-season minutes could be that FdB is actually quite happy with him and wants to see what his other options look like. Just a thought.
Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune) |

I agree but he's a big earner, can we afford someone on 65k on the bench. Where do you get that figure from?

Even if he's not a starter, if we're playing with 3 CBs this season we're going to need a few of them. Maybe Tomkins doesn't quite fit for FDB, but he's experienced and reliable enough.
