Bouncing Czech arrives

So Czech billionaire Daniel Kretinsky has arrived with a 27 per cent investment in West Ham. I'll reserve judgement on how he made his money until there is more information, but in the short-term any investment is surely good in terms of keeping Declan Rice at the club and investing in a stronger squad that can challenge for the top four. Having been to the Liverpool match he'll be aware of the potential of the club and its stadium. WHU will also be in with a shout of buying any decent Sparta Prague players. Czech mates Soucek and Coufal have certainly done ok. Whether Kretinsky will eventually buy the club outright is unknown, though his share is now bigger than David Gold's, but for the moment it's potato salad all round.
