Re: Takeover talk

Lots of "I think we can improve this. I think we can make it better" rather than "We will improve this, we will invest , we will solve problems" If his investors don't put their cash in he has zero options. Buying the club is one thing but servicing the debt and constant investme...

Re: The Summer Transfer Thread 2021

I think we need to get a grip on things and realize how large these sums of money are for purchasing players. Zouma is £25 million great british pounds....... Thats 25000000 gold nuggets. These are massive numbers in a sector which has taken a kicking with zero fan income for over a year. We have to...

Re: Takeover talk

So PAI run a successful £500+ million investment fund and they are knocking around with a bloke selling mattress's and clothes at car boot markets? Smells well fishy this. Luckily its not season ticket selling time..... oh Takeovers dont happen like this. Its done professionally behind closed doors....

Re: The Summer Transfer Thread 2021

Czech rumor mill says he would be available for 17M euro. But that is just rumor mill. I would be very very surprised if Sparta let him go for less than 20M euro. They can keep him for one more year and his price will be much higher. There is not general consensus among Czech supporters on Hložek's...

Re: The Summer Transfer Thread 2021

Anyone else get the sick feeling that we are waiting to sell Rice for 100m and with the cash we then try and patch up the gaping holes elsewhere in the squad?

The pot looks empty at the moment.

Re: Welcome to West Ham, Said Benrahma

Anyone else get annoyed with that stupid "No look back heel" he does? Rather than cutting into the box or towards goal?

Poor mans Payet at the moment. He needs to get back to delivering goals like he did at Brentford. He obviously knows where the goal is but just isn't taking his chances

Cheers Puff. Ive decided to not pay into the patreon pages for gossip from ExWHU so this is the only source I check. Too much rubbish getting written in the back pages of the papers atm.

Re: ⚽ West Ham Utd vs Doncaster : FA Cup 4th Rd match thread

Do we not have any other striker on the books? Surely there must be another in the U23 we could blood if Odubeko isnt available?

This is embarrassing

I've heard they are busily jet washing the portacabins at Rush Green so they can send some promo photos to about 10 thousand football agents.

It will only be confirmed by a photo of Sully behind a massive desk on the phone next to some garish jewel encrusted panther.

Re: ⚽ Southampton v West Ham Utd: match thread

For me we need Coufal to be at his best tonight. Some of his crosses into the box recently have been pathetic. They need to dangerous and into Hallers area. Too many crosses either didn't get close or were wildly away from players. Cresswell too was also a culprit for this against Brighton.

Re: West Ham United V Crystal Palace: match thread (16/12)

There were a lot of sideways passes out to the wing last night which should have been aimed a little more forward and aggressively to pressure Palace. The point is greatly welcomed. None of us would have expected 21 points before Christmas after last seasons s*** show.

Hitting 17-20 points before Christmas would be a present in itself. No fear whilst teams like Sheffield and WBA are floundering at the bottom.

Re: ⚽ Liverpool v West Ham Utd: match thread

They are 62 games unbeaten at home, and have won 28 out of the last 29. On the other hand, when we win on Saturday, we'll be just two points behind them and then we're at home to Fulham when they go to City next up. In other words, this is virtually a title decider. I love this guys optimism. Shall...

Re: Summer 2020 Transfer Thread

It doesn't take a genius to realize if your team struggles in a season and almost gets relegated then a busy transfer period is needed to replace players whom struggled or under performed. Villa actually showing some bottle here. No idea what out "genius" management are currently thinking....
