I think when you have a side with experience and high quality, it’s a luxury you can afford. When you have a younger team and key players become injured, then it’s less affordable.
The other point is Nunes is taking up a valuable squad space regardless, which stops us having more suitable players in his place.

I'd love it to work out for him here, but personally I just can't see it.

We have a fairly small squad, so we could carry one extra.

However, we are probably stuck with Phillips (loan to other clubs for the foreseeable) and probably don’t want Nunes going the same way.

I’m open to him turning it around and it is of course the best solution, but like you I doubt it.

We have had amazing recruitment. But, Phillips and Nunes it’s not hindsight for me that these players are not our quality.

I tend to agree sadly
 
How is he actually doing this season? Is he tearing it up in a way you'd expect a player to be before he gets a move to the best team in the world?
Currently injured. Started the season brightly but has been out injured since the start of the calendar year. I saw him collapse late in the game against Spurs, mid-December, and he then looked to be nursing issues with both calves. His game time started to drop thereafter and then he went on the injury list with a calf injury. His most recent Tweet suggest that he'll be back in the frame against Brentford tonight.

If we are not losing Bernardo in the summer, a good addition. If Bernardo leaves, not sure he's the direct replacement.

West Ham's form tanked the moment he was injured, he had a brilliant first half of the season, class player, great footballer, creates, scores and superb energy.
 
Have I missed any rumours or leaks about his investigation? It seems to have been running for a long time with no mention that I've seen.
It has been a long time which suggests there is evidence to be investigated.I wouldn't be assuming he'll be found innocent and with it dragging on when it gets towards the end of the season we might be wise to be looking elsewhere.
