Fun bit of research for you regarding the January transfer windows of Allardyce, Bilic and Moyes (potential) final seasons I know this isn’t the point of your post, but it’s also worth highlighting the transfer windows during their managerial terms where no funds were made available when we had the...

That’s too much (net spend unless you are finding new owners). I would keep Zouma (he would be hard to shift on those wages), Downes he is good enough for the bench and JWP I would keep. I would let Coufal go if he is unhappy, Mubama can go, and I would take £15m for Soucek I know that he’s not the...

I’m not Moyes in or out, but Sullivan left him out to dry in January to the point that it almost looks like Sulli WANTED our season to peter out so he had an excuse to not renew his contact in the summer

It’s games like this where if you are a west ham manager you can put one of the kids on, not because they might change the game, but because it would get the crowd into it and they can’t do any worse

To be fair it looks like after he won the ball it bumped his leg up which makes it look worse. I think yellow is right but definitely could be a red today

Antonio needs to be playing 30-60 min tops if he’s going to play twice in one week

Again we needed another option like Antonio if we were planning to play the way we do. And of course we didn’t get it

We are definitely better with the ball without Soucek
We are definitely worse without the ball without Soucek
And in both cases to a pretty noticeable extent

There was a superb piece of journalism in today's 'Mail' on Mason Greenwood and how he has completely refound himself at Getafe. . . To the point, PL clubs just might begin to start watching him I can’t see anyone here signing him for a few more years still, but I can see the chairman’s son tweetin...

Ekwah just scored a nice goal for sunderland

I think there really is a reasonable middle ground view on our last game. Playing compact and trying to hit Bayer on the break was probably a smart game plan away from home. However, at the same time, under Moyes and other managers we have set up like that to frustrate even better sides than Bayer, ...

I feel like Paq’s release clause combined with the investigation means he definitely won’t move until later If you’re Man City, and you know that you have 85 to spend on him and you’ve set that aside in the budget, you then have all summer to make an offer for 90 with less up front, then 100 with le...

What's the odds on Paqueta betting charges rolling on until the very last minute and then us letting him go without using the money for reinforcements. 'We tried'... 'Razzle Dazzle' I will one up you - this will occur, and then in an interview Paq will profess his love and appreciation for the club...

This ironically is why we need someone else who can do what Antonio does. Once he tires he cannot work as the same outlet as when he is fresh, which leads to other teams piling pressure on us in quick succession that even the best defenders couldn’t keep up with

The importance of a squad. How did it come to this?

He thought it might be deflected so held his dive it looked like to me

Think we need to bring Johnson in to add a bit more pace

Idk who for though

Paq is going to score a worldie, I’ve foreseen it

Hurry up Man City

Pep may not want someone who gets yellows like that

‘Why doesn’t he give the kids a chance” goes the mantra. He puts several on the bench and it is look at how weak the bench is. Do we want to give the youngsters at least a hope of playing or do we want to fill the bench (thus the squad) with more experienced players? Equally the player qualificatio...
