✍ Welcome Nayef Aguerd

[StevePottsGoalsReel]

Oops - looks like he just scored an own goal!
I should have kept quiet

1st OG of the tournament.

100th goal of the 2022 World Cup.

Hammers always making World Cup history.

I think giving that as an OG against Nathan was harsh, he got a slight block on a shot that hit the goalkeeper in the hands & went in, if anything it should have the keepers OG...

Damaged my fantasy team score too!

Isn't how own goals or goals work tho

Aguards actions took a wide shot onto target and if on target if it touches keeper it's a goal

If that was Bowen scoring for us would you be after an own goal?

No, just thought it was harsh on Nathan because he's one of ours. I'm incredibly biased...

Yes, it’s one of those OG you don’t really want to award, but annoyingly have to accept.

Hope he hits the ground running as were gonna need him,with our shortage of CBS.

[bonzosbeard]

I'm hoping good things from him.

It's only harsh if you're the type of person who then holds it against him - see some of the comments this season about Kehrer - which is ridiculous because the alternative is to NOT attempt a block/tackle incase it causes an OG.

Indeed, & I didn't blame Kehrer for the OG at the time either, what else was he supposed to do..? Let Son just tap it in..?
I don't hold grudges against anyone, especially not footballers.

I don't think you can underestimate the effect that Aguerd's injury has had on this season... It meant we had to change our transfer policy and bring in more defensive cover (Kehrer) and it's meant this transition of style of play and formation has been hampered.

Big player for sure.
But to spend £150m and get a single point of failure with someone who has never kicked a ball for us is poor.

We still have CB issues imo and he needs another partner.

[Happyhammer52]

Oh dear

[floydie_hammer]

Limped off rather being stretchered off. Hope it isnt too serious.

[mumbles87]

Oh dear

I've just turned on, what happened? How bad

[EastleighHammer16]

Great idea to have a World Cup mid season.

Hopefully his injury isn’t too serious.

[nickkarkie]

Saying thigh injury so gladly not the ankle again.

Looks like he overstretched his groin in a tackle

[Knighter10WHU]

He did not look happy there

[El brooko79]

What's a groin strain usually? 6 weeks.
Dawson and Kehrer possibly for the January games.
