West Ham defender Reece Oxford, 20, linked with a move to Borussia Monchengladbach this month, may wait for a summer switch to Arsenal. (Mirror)

Yeah, apparently we want to sign him in the Summer.

To be honest, though he is only 19 and has time to improve, he has a certain 'Ravel Morison' type of attitude surrounding him.

West Ham fans have been saying that, though he has lots of talent, he's gotten too big for his boots and thinks he's better than he actually is. That he's not proven anything yet, but thinks he has. This entitlement is very concerning and I don't think it's worth pursuing, personally.

He can have all the talent in the world, but if he doesn't have the attitude to match his ability, he's not going to get far with us. Especially as Emery is quite strict in terms of what type of behaviour he does/doesn't allow from the players.

Even though our squad isn't great right now, the team spirit is very good. A pampered primma donna like this would adversely affect the dressing room.

I think it's too much of a risk and should go for someone proven and more experienced.

We gave Jack 90k a week for doing f all. He didn't improve at all.

Hoping Emery is different

Sounds like he needs to be sat down by an Adams or a Terry and told about himself
Corinthians 15:57; But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus
