Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

Kehrer - Weird signing. He was available from a team that we had done business with before so they probably agreed to favourable terms would be my guess. We Probably didn’t even know too much about him or his favoured position. He just filled a space. This is the problem with our recruitment. A lot...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

I do think there is some mileage in your post NEHammer. The Qatari’s own the Olympic village so it would make sense if they bought the stadium and surrounding plot. My money is on securing the stadium first (which someone on here suggested might be in the offing as Kretinsky is working on it), and t...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

It’ll be interesting to see where he ends up. If I was him I’d take a break for a while. He was sounded out about replacing Rodger, but Celtic seem in better form now. Everton seems an option, though I’d be surprised if he went there given the state they are in. Some suggest the fans there wouldn’t...

It's a clusterfuck of the highest order.

Any other club would have deals already done and paperwork ready to sign... our lot probably don't even know whose leaving and whose staying.
Transfers ? Transfer window ? What the….?

But I think he's a decent manager, I'd be interested what he could do with a strong team.
He certainly won’t have to worry about having too many players !

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

Maybe so. I do hope that with Gold's passing and Sullivan getting older, having Kretinsky, and having just seen what Steidten's squad building can do for Leverkusen and the German League, that it makes us do something different at last and actually go for it and push on. Fingers cross eh I think Ja...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

I was having a look back at some of the posts I made at the end of Bilic's reign and I found this one. Kind of feels like we're going on a similar journey. I agree with Bristolhammer's excellent post earlier by the way, and I am ready for a change - but for any manager to be a success, it's going t...

Push all the qualified medics out the way and show off his 3 day 1st aid certificate he got in the scouts 40 years ago ? Any excuse to have a pop at old heartless Moyes who let’s ...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

Good post and spot on. On this bit I have seen arguments on here that if he had anything about him Moyes should have walked if the January window wasn't his doing. It's a crap argument designed to be a dig at him either way. So being facetious I wonder if the same will apply to a new manager. Why w...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

Hell of a job regardless who'll be in charge of the first team. Will need several PL-equipped signings to keep us in the top half of the table or among the middle of the pack. The club currently instead is hunting for value-signings and/or youngsters from Brazil. A different direction and a risky o...

Re: West Ham Utd v Bayer Leverkusen: match thread (2nd leg)

I think we will do it. The press and media will think it’s job done and I’m hoping that BL think the same. If we can get the atmosphere going and score early, they could be in for a shock. Imagine we go in at 2-0 HT. they won’t know what to do. For some reason, I have a sneaky that Ings will play th...

Or Bowen will go up front.
Yep I reckon that was the long term vision with Kudus. Bowen will go right and we will sign a LW and a striker.

Re: Late David Gold, Sullivan and Brady

I have always thought, I hope sully makes a mistake and ends up desperate to sell and doesn't make anywhere near as much as he has hoped he would. I can dream can't I? Your hope may not be as far away as you think. There’s so much work to be done with the squad, any manager will struggle next seaso...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

But was Sullivans priority reinforcing the squad, which had already qualified for Europa knock out stages and heading for a top half finish, or dressing the business for sale or major investment ? Surely it would be easier to attract investment or a sale if the club are top 5 or 6 and sitting comfo...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

Centre of defence is what has done the team this season. Aguerd hasn’t turned out the player any of us thought he would. Mav although showing better signs recently, shouldn’t be a first pick yet but he is and has a mistake in him every game. Zouma unfortunately struggles with his knees. He is still ...
