Re: ✍ Welcome, Kalvin Phillips
that went well... a predictable first start from a part time england international and semi-retired professional footballer. he looked clueless. I never saw what the fuss was about and always felt he was overrated in the media. but then again what do I know since I thought the same about lingard bef...

Re: 👋 Farewell, Said Benrahma
underrated and underappreciated. entertaining player and his numbers last year were really good, and as we've found, difficult to replace without spending a lot of money. yes made some frustrating/odd decisions playing, but felt he opened us up a lot and created space for others when he came on. i'l...

Re: African nations
attended the opening match last night. the timing of this tournament has always been annoying - more so for us this year since we lose 2 key players. but seeing what it means here, it (almost) makes it worth it. there is one road back into town from the stadium and the streets were lined with people...

Re: January transfer window
Go all in for Guirassy, & Gallagher, don't fck about negotiating pennies. Pay up, get it done, move on, we wouldn't lose money on those even if we paid over the odds to get them. Show some professional business intent. Fannying around trying to get bargains is counter productive in the squad me...

my last minute list of random players still available that we have a chance of signing and that I would enjoy watching this year. gnonto, gallagher, hudson-odoi, ekitiké. I also enjoy watching origi, he is a more talented footballer than he gets credit for and would be an adequate although not excit...

Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
A big difference between Rice and McTominay is you fire the ball at Rice it tends to stick. McTominay can be prone to a loose touch. Unfairly or not, when I think of him playing against us it's for doing that thing where you take a loose touch then steam in to retrieve it. Paqueta is prone to a bit...

Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread
Donny Van der Beek. Only just turned 26. Pretty much 1 in 4 for Ajax in around 120 appearances, looked great in the CL, 20 odd caps for Holland. Based on history and age I would not say £35m was particularly unreasonable. Yet another though who could not adapt, did not make it in the PL despite all...

Re: Summer Rebuild 2: Electric Boogaloo
Still think we should bid for McTominay. It would encourage Man Utd to potentially compete on price for Rice and I still think he’s the best homegrown fit for our centre midfield (ahead of Phillips, Gallagher, JWP) but could also fit in with any of those as well as Palhinha, Fofana or Alvarez. Many...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
it is now 10 mins past noon. I can't believe he wasn't sacked in the morning.
unbelievable he is still at the club. especially now with so many decent options available.

Re: ✍ Welcome to West Ham, Said Benrahma
motm and by far the most exciting player on the pitch. probably a 0-0 dull draw without him.
yes it seems like he misses a lot of chances, but often these were created out of nothing. looking forward to hopefully more consistent performances like this.
