The media in Brazil have revealed some of the evidence against Lucas Paqueta in relation to the betting charges by the English FA. It is reported that Paqueta’s Uncle and Cousin borrowed money from Luiz Henrique, the other player alleged to have committed fraud, and repaid him in 2023. Geo and Frankie also discuss the 5-1 defeat to Liverpool and how West Ham United could get on against Brentford with a discussion around Mohammed Kudus.

Good show. Agree with Frankie that Kudus is the elephant in the room for the balance of team. For me Sommerville starts on the left and Kudus centrally or on the bench. I actually thought Fabianski distribution better than Areola and I'd start him Sat too.
Lets hope paqueta is banned and never plays for us again….overrated and has been shite since the middle of last year…proper overrated…
All we need is a good technical manager who is able to make use of the talent we have currently and any addition. Anything short of that will be disastrous, as our players will want to look away from the club and it will be difficult for us to attract quality players. Don’t forget that players do talk to each other and can influence transfer/move. It’s crazy to spend so much on players and then looking for a bargain on a manager. Some of our players that we have let go is due to lack of a good manager who can develop them and get the best out of them and not necessarily means they are not good players. It’s the same problem with our youth players that we have not been able to develop/adapt to the senior team but we are ready to spend so much on young talent from other teams/clubs.
It’s not a ‘smoking gun’. A smoking gun is unequivocal and a direct link. This is more like unhelpful revelations. Nonetheless, as Geo says, it’s on ‘balance of probabilities’ (like a civil case) which means Paq is likely going down.
I still don't think you can prove that Paqueta was involved… But Geo is right, you don't need to prove "beyond reasonable doubt" in these proceedings as they're not criminal
I would change the title of your post to allegedly or else you’ll end up in behind Paq man in court 😂
Ungrateful West Ham Thinks Kudus is The Elephant in the Room… He’s Leaving Soon Dont worry
Can someone tell frankie bowen has started 4 league games on the right and 1 up top,he is talking here like that was the first time in ages bowen had played wide.
Paq is screwed in my opinion. The financial link and relationship between both parties have now been made. Also why would Paquetas family need a loan from another player when he is on 80k a week.
Stupid as this is over the amount of money he makes in a few hours. This will be done on probability and this whole situation looks dodgy as hell. Hope I’m wrong.
Really enjoyed the show. I was at Liverpool and quite liked Todibo. Saw a lot of glimpses of positivity. Think Bowen should be on the right on try kudos upfront. Bring krug on at half time if it’s not working. Have to say I find it slightly annoying that we spent the whole of the last three years complaining we knew on Sunday morning what the squad would be on Wednesday night! And now we complain we don’t. New manager, massive squad change. He needs a season and expectations need to be sensible. Mid table is all anyone should expect from this season. COYIs
Geo of so lttle Paqueta faith, it is R$5000, (which is less than £1000) that the Uncle repaid in Brasil Real currency (R$)
What I don't understand is that why would either player risk their huge salaries for a relatively paltry amount? It doesn't make sense.
Also, Paqueta does get booked the whole time. So much so, he's actually a nutter; do you remember the insane way he behaved in the away game at Leverkusen? It was like he was trying to get himself sent off.
IMO, a loan IS v possible, although it is a bit weird that it isn't from his nephew, Paqueta. It will need a paper trail for the loan….
442 – AWB JCT Kilman Emerson, Kudus Irving Soucek Summerville Bowen Fullkrug
The smoking gun would be anyone involved saying Paq knew. Otherwise noone has done anything wrong.
Frankie, I hope your right with a 1-0 win but the chances we are giving away I think our goals against record is in danger
Come on 5k
Paqueta is on 150k a week
Smoking gun
Broken pea shooter
You guys are right.. The best team doesn't always contain best players .. but that player would be Paqueta NOT Kudus. Kudus needs to be in the middle.
If my uncle murders someone does that make me a murderer?
It’s nonsense, if it doesn’t directly relate to Paqueta then it shouldn’t even be noted. If convicted this is pretty much a life sentence, they need to be very sure that Paqueta was directly involved
I'm hoping we sell Kudus in January for 80m+ and use all that and our available cash to buy a decent winger from the Championship and use the huge bulk of the remainder to get the best striker in the world we can afford
Need to drop out Paqueta for Irving
Midfield..Summerville Irving Soler and Kudus with Bowen up top
I’m with you Geo. Paqman is toast, and frankly it sounds like he ought to be. He’s not walking from this.
Cmon guys, he's guilty as f@@k
Paqueta is guilty as hell. We all know it. Why not play a false 9 and have Summerville, Kudus and Bowen as a front 3 with Paqueta, Soler and Soucek behind them in a 4-3-3?
If this all comes on top for a pittance really to throw away a career worth millions.
You would think if they was at it they would have offshore accounts
5 grand wud be his CUT. Not the total money collected.
Whilst the usual FA approach is balance of probabilities, I reckon they may have to take a legal approach of reasonable doubt on this one. If a player is going to get a sanction then return to the game, it's not in their interest to seek legal recourse. If they impose a sanction against LP that effectively ends his career however , they better be sure it will stand up in a court of law because you can be sure that's where his legal team will take it because at that point he has nothing to lose
Bros just in denial he’s not walking stop the bias
