Very disappointing after showing good promise. In the current climate does he think he will be inundated with better offers?

What do we think?
As can be seen in these responses from West Ham supporters, the majority are disappointed that the young Englishman has been touted to be leaving the club.
However, a 6.6/10 rating over four Premier League appearances, which left Ngakia as only the 17th-best performer for West Ham in the league this season (per WhoScored), may suggest that the Irons could do better.
