Bergwijn is very decent player
You are just copying BBC football gossip. Wheres the new content?
In the 80's, a big guy called William Perry played for the Chicago Bears in the NFL. His nickname was The Refrigerator, so it would be cool to have The Washing Machine playing for us 🙂
Moyes oesn’t know what man management is, sorry mate but he has alienated so many players that it’s a foreign idea to him. It’s either his way or the highway.
It's Tax free over in Saudi Gonzo. So Effectively a 50% pay rise.
Can do a lot with a sack of potatoes to be fair, and Soucek would love it
I just hope this week he doesn't go peak Moyes?!?! That man would cut his own nose off to spite his face at times! If he didn't want Ings but he'll start him when theres other options i can only assume its to blindly hope that something will happen on the pitch to justify his "proven premier league player" excuse he used in the summer after failing to get a tune out of scamacca and trying to force Maguire over the line against most people's wishes, including Maguire's! Its either that or hes pulling names out of a hat, cos Ings in his set up is the equivalent of a red card.
I would love to have strikers next season consisting of Mubama, Guirassy and Akor Adams
Sanusi could be a decent signing for us. FC Porto are my team here in Portugal, he looks decent enough but I am not sure how he would fit in the Prem, at least the tempo that the Prem is played at is way different to Primeira Liga Portugal
Bergwijn was alright at Spurs, but I watched him last year a couple of times for Ajax and he looks like a different player. He was tubby and slow and lazy. NOT a player West Ham should even be looking at.
Top 8 scoring unit, bottom 5 defensive one.
It's the back half of the team that needs attention in January.
This team is many points ahead of where it was this time last year, and has scored many more goals. The only meaningful stat that's gone the other way is goals conceded, but GD is better thanks to our goals scored.
Yet, more attackers are being diagnosed, rather than considering that we have a £5m RB (albeit superb value at the price) and no depth in CM?
Think its Colchester mate, Chelmsford are non league
I think Bowen should play on the left. He’s got a good left foot and has recently proven he can go past players down the left. A good striker with Kudus and Bowen flanking and Paqueta linking could be lethal.
Who's the u21s manager
Southampton fed Liverpool, Brighton fed Chelsea…Ajax to feed West Ham
Perhaps Ings did exactly what Moyes asked him to do?
Bergwijn?? Spurs reject, no thanks, don't think he is good enough for prem footie. Can't we get Koleosho from Burnley when they get relegated, he looks well rapid and a big threat.
I just cant get excited about any potential signings at the moment while David Moyes remains, we know exactly what will come. Does David Moyes hate Danny Ings to keep playing him when he knows his tactics dont accommodate the player.
Surely Bergwjn should go back to the Spuds !!
Re Antonio to Saudi.
Worth remembering that players going over get Saudi native tax status, so they pay zero income tax on wages.
So a like for like deal is worth nearly twice as much to them.
Not sure if that was factored into the rumours. Still, I wouldn't go, even for double money, if I had a family to take!
Please not Bergwijn. He is average. I admit I don't know much about Sanusi.
Nice to hear Mubama is perhaps close. I think he will definitely be an answer to our problems. I wonder how this transfer window is going to go with regard to who gets the say on the incomings given that Moyes may or may not be the manager in 6 months…? Perhaps we'll have a firmer understanding of whether he has a long term future at the club after January?
Who's on Stiedten's list? Is that the real question?
If Bergwijn is & comes in on the left wing, then all good, but play Cornet first!
In a parallel universe today, Nat King Cole was heaed serenading David Moyes with a playful rendition of hit classic Unforgettable… Unpredictable, that's what you're not. Unpredictable, just take a shot. You might miss and feel full of shame but to win you gotta play the game, be unpredictable and let's all enjoy the gamr
We need a right back more than a left back
Did anyone manage to see mubama talk in his interview after the game the other day? He said something along the line of hoping that this proves to the manager he's worthy of some minutes (wasn't in a shitty way very professional) but for anyone who knows the situation at West ham it was a very clear message of how he felt the game went for him
I hope Mubama starts Thursday, but I will be very very very surprised if he does
We NEED a RB
We don't need a winger and we can't take any chances flirting with breaking ffp rules
Put antonio on the left. Try something ffs
Bergywin was shocking for Spurs,I heard he is 32 so surely too old Gonzo’s,this looks like a Moyes want rather than Steidten?
U21s this season are amazing,but they are Kevin Keens U18s of last season plus a couple of players.Well done Steve Potts ,also well done Kevin Keen,as most of last seasons squad has been promoted he is bringing the next crop of 16 and 17 year olds through.Then we reach a roadblock,Moyes,because he won’t use them properly.
