Former West Ham United forward Frank McAvennie can't believe that his former club have parted with a player of Grady Diangana's ability, only to make moves for Said Benrahma who is almost twice the price of the winger they sold to West Bromwich Albion.
The Irons, who have won their last two games, faced a backlash after parting with academy product Diangana; he returned to West Brom earlier this summer after an excellent loan campaign, in a deal that will eventually be worth up to £18m to the London club.
They've been weighing up replacing Diangana, who would appear to be a real coup for Albion and very much West Ham's loss. With the transfer deadline close to shutting, they've turned their attentions to Brentford playmaker Benrahma.
The Algerian is particularly talented in his own right, but McAvennie doesn't understand the logic of selling Diangana for a fraction of the price.
"Is he that different from the boy that they let go, Diangana? A player who came through the ranks at West Ham. I do not get it. I am not sure if Benrahma is that much better than Diangana," he told Football Insider.
"Only time will tell if that is good business. I would not have sold Diangana for £18m and then gone and spent £30m on a winger because I believe Diangana could have done that job.
"Whether that decision has come from David Moyes, I do not know but they needed cover on the left-side after letting [Felipe] Anderson go. They look like they have got that now."
