Sad to see that Craig Dawson is going to Wolves for £3.3 million. The Rochdale Beckenbauer became something of a cult during his three seasons at West Ham. Craig might not be the most skilful player in the world but he relished the ugly part of defending and has to be one of the best players at blocking in the division. He always showed massive commitment on the pitch.
Dawson is very underrated and was a better signing than James Tarkowski for whom West Ham once bid £30m. He was also very useful at set-pieces and scored a lot of goals for a centre-back including the opener at Lyon last season. And there was a nerveless penalty against Man City in the Carabao Cup shoot-out.
There's nothing much we can do if he wants to move closer to his family up north and he is pushing 33 — while WHU now have a lot of centre-backs. But you certainly wouldn't want to be on the wrong end of one of his tackles. Thank you for the daze, Craig.
