Re: Is Payet going

A valid enough point but if we get rid of all the faint hearted ones we are going to need a lot of new players to fill the gaps on the evidence of the last 3 games. Had it not been for Adrian (the only player who can truly hold his head up after Saturday) we would have shipped 6 or 7. Payet was pan...

Re: Is Payet going

Is Payet really sought by the "big fish" ? Because the way I see it is that the "big fish" don't fuck about when they want a player. no one really even tried to get Payet. PSG went as far as making a bid which was rejected. They didn't come back with another one. Draw whatever c...

Re: Is Payet going

As for "is he staying or is he going" all I want IF hes going is that he gets the fuck out sooner rather than later. Where we are at present IS NO PLACE FOR THE FAINT HEARTED and if your not in it for the long haul then off you toddle and lets get somebody in who will fight for our cause!...

Re: Is it the stadium?

Just throwing this out there... Mark Noble has stated that the stadium switch has had a negative impact on the squad. Perhaps someone should ask our glorious leader how exactly the new stadium caused us to perform like a bunch of 12 year olds at The Hawthorns recently. And why we didn't pull up any...

Re: Seige mentality

I'm not sure what Dicks is doing, but clearly there is a lack of motivation at the minute. On the evidence of Dicks' only previous effort at coaching proper football ( call me sexist but I'm ignoring the West Ham Ladies experience) at Grays Athletic he would struggle to motivate water to come out o...

Re: Is Payet going

The conspiracy theory goes like this. It's no secret PSG were sniffing during and immediately after the Euros. But the smooth talking and scrupulously honest David Sullivan promised Payet the earth. A shiny new contract AND marquee signings like James Rodrigues, Isco,Batashuayi, Lacazette, Uncle Tom...

Re: Change to a 3-5-2 now

West Ham line up.jpg My line-up for Boro... drastic changes are needed. We need to try something else completely. Not sure dropping Adrian, who was the reason we only lost 3-0 yesterday imo, would achieve anything. And Ogbonna is far and away our best CD so why move him out to LB? Obiang has to com...

Re: Will we stay up?

I think we will struggle this year but think we will finish in 15th place this season... Just need to find a few teams worse than us so we don't go down! There are quite a few clubs with weaker squads than ours but today's performance in terms of effort, skill and organisation was the absolute pits...

Re: Marcelo Bielsa

Marcelo Bielsa may be a good coach but he doesn't speak a word of English and,as said, is a bit of a maverick. 2 days at Lazio proves that.

I doubt if he'd last 45 minutes working for Sullivan tbh. Anyhow if they do decide on a change their old mate Steve Bruce is available.
