HI fellas, WELL they were all man ofthe match last night, can't remember the last time that every single player was top notch a well deserved win. And now us supporters can cease swearing for the time being and watch the others at the bottom slug it out, NOW beginning next week DGS will have to decide fundamentally which way they want to go , THIS system of back three folding into 3/ 5 at the back seems to suit the players we have, WE CANNOT play this system with Carroll as he is too static By far. WE will have A limited budget so next week we can discuss Who WH will dispose of and who are the preferred targets, IRONMIKE.

Ironmike one swallow doesn't make a summer. Yes it was a great performance where all the players had their best games in a hammers shirt, but why did it take three games before the end of the season for this to happen. Can we now lay Upton Park to rest and move forward. Interesting summer coming with some harsh decisions to be made. Think it is also time to move Carroll on as we can't keep players who hardly play. COYI.

INDEED! , Bilic was most reluctant to adopt this type of system, preferring to play freewheel, which frankly we did not have the individual skill level to play, thank goodness we stuck with it, you can only play. To the capabilities of what you have IRONMIKE.

I agree Corby, that's why Sturridge would be a gamble. another sicknote is the last thing we need. For the rest of this season I'd give young Fletcher a chance, but with Sakho and probably Carroll gone, we do need a reliable striker to come in, Premiership proven preferably.

If we do let our strikers go, Calleri, Valencia, Sakho and Carroll we're going to need a new set of strikers with maybe prem experience, so just going to throw a few names out there, Iheanacho, (Man City), Deeny (Watford), gray, (Burnley), King (Bournemouth), maybe two of these and get Defoe as well, just a thought.

It shouldn't take spurs as our opposition to play so obviously our approach to majority of games is not professional enough and that comes down to players and management team not the two d's this time I thought we totally outplayed spurs apart from the bit of luck from the early Kane chance which Adrian deserved his luck because it was a brilliant save we were by far the better team and potchetini said spurs dominated, I had a lot of respect for him but he went down in my estimation with his comments mind u all the top teams managers say that when beaten because they ain't used to losing but he didn't give us one bit of credit saying we sat deep and defended load of Bol----a anyway we deserved what we got the win but questions have to be asked where we've been level wise for most of the season.

Some great shouts iheanacho, Defoe and manzukic would be fantastic signings but they would all want regular footie how do we got them in. Another goalie for sure and right back.

IRONMIKE, You mentioned in yesterday's post that we will have a limited budget. This is a little deflating-at first sight. I just wonder what you mean. Limited to what and by what?

Limited compared to the top teams? Limited compared to last or previous years? I assume that most supporters expect us to have a healthy amount to spend on transfers with the biggest Sky deal ever and some increase in revenue.

We supposedly have the 20th largest turnover in Europe . I obviously do not know if it is true but the talk is that Newcastle will have a £70 million to spend on transfers. I'm a bit confused.

YES, it's not simple to explain, it's something like this, DGS are the MAIN creditors to the club, and the the debts of West Ham United were wiped out as a condition to enter the stadium last summer, Those debts were cleared by DGS, who want to slowly recoup some of their money.

I cannot see anything wrong with that, with the increase of turnover West Ham United budget will gradually increase, to match clubs like Newcastle who have enjoyed much bigger attendances for many years, BUT don't expect that to happen this year, we will spend and this will be discussed this week.

Regards IRONMIKE.

I would definitely try and sign iheanacho as he could be surplass to city when they spend millions in the summer mind u because of his age they may opt to keep him I'd try with a 20 million pound bid because I'd prefer him to sturridge or bacca (age) .
