We’ve triggered our one year option for Fornals.
06 Dec 2023 06:57:15
It’s only in order to gain as much as possible in his sale. Rumour has it this move has placed a valuation of between £8 million to £12 million.
02 Dec 2023 12:15:39
The latest rumour on the manager front is that Steve Cooper is on the West Ham board radar. I can't believe that, other than the fact that we have a habit of lurching from one disaster to the next. Although Cooper might be an improvement on our current boring wearer of the pointed hat, there are so many far better alternative options. Fingers crossed this rumour was invented by someone who intended it for 1st April.
03 Dec 2023 17:36:47
Behave Tinlegs. Your getting more predictable than Moyes.
03 Dec 2023 19:41:16
The thing we can.predict with moyes is that the football will be garbage
05 Dec 2023 10:40:47
“Your getting more predictable than Moyes”.
Yep, I agree. I don’t do U-turns. 😁
05 Dec 2023 16:44:45
Unlike the board
06 Dec 2023 21:53:14
Where do you get your rumours from?
07 Dec 2023 02:32:47
They are there for anyone to see who digs a little and does research.
07 Dec 2023 13:43:38
So, the way things are going for Forest, they will sack cooper and we will hire him
08 Dec 2023 19:37:12
Rumours are from a classic Fleetwood Mac album lol and about as up to date. Musselburgh Monster out btw!
29 Nov 2023 16:09:09
I think Ekiteke is now a real possibility. Either a loan, or a buy outright if we can offload to raise the 30m + add-ons.
01 Dec 2023 08:04:23
To be truthful, I don;t think any striker is going to work under the MOYES system. Look at Danny Ings as the latest example. MOYEs likes big physical strikers that can run the channels whereas INGS is a technical, fox in the box player. Buying Ings was never going to work because he doesn't fit the MOYES system, so a waste of £13m and extremely poor recruitment. I've watched us play some poor football over the years but that performance last night was a schocker! A number of fringe players, who MOYES selected by the way, had a chance last night and its was disgraceful. Kehrer, Johnson, Cresswell (Oddly all defenders) and then Fornals, benrahma, Ings to name but a few. If they are not gone, along with MOYES in January or at the latest summer then its bordering on a criminal way to run a professoinal football team. I was ashamed to watch that last night
01 Dec 2023 14:09:07
That's a bit harsh on Kehrer. He only got a few minutes - and how Johnson was played ahead of him is a mystery.
22 Nov 2023 16:13:26
Don't be taken in by the, we have no Money nonsense for the January window This is often rolled out to squash fans expectations Apparently there is 16 m approx available plus any sales, as virtually all transfer purchases are split over length of players contract, FPP also rolls out against separate years as Chelsea have exploited I believe six years can be used for example as a maximum, so two strikers each with a substantial deposit is doable and our so called overspend is minimal compared to some other clubs , yes a careful approach is needed, but pleading poverty is ridiculous
23 Nov 2023 08:18:20
A smell a loan in the air.
17 Nov 2023 17:23:23
More Ekitike noise starting.
Could be an excellent option.
19 Nov 2023 20:56:31
Ings to leave in Jan and we are very interested in jonathan david and santiago gimenez
19 Nov 2023 22:16:51
Whilst among others that’s true BUT are they interested in us ? it appears not. At the moment
20 Nov 2023 13:04:05
Antonio could be out for up to 9 months. Ings could be sold In January so its looking like FAB up front unless of course MOYES is going to lace his boots up.
20 Nov 2023 16:01:44
It was obvious to all of us EXCEPT Moyes that this was going to happen not an IF only WHEN , personally I think it unlikely that Mubama is up to the job at this level disgraceful really hope this dosnt put us in trouble
20 Nov 2023 19:39:27
West ham linked with 7 strikers in the last 48 hours. Seemingly Tim has 3 or 4 man shortlist but Moyes wants to check out at least 15 more before he decides on Anthony Marcial and Greenwood from Man utd
20 Nov 2023 20:23:53
Andy Carroll might be available.
21 Nov 2023 00:53:34
We’d be better off with Andy Williams. 😁
21 Nov 2023 07:27:45
Wise men say only fools rush in.
21 Nov 2023 14:29:41
Mmpr showing your age lol Carlton Cole has offered to come out of retirement which Moyes is considering
22 Nov 2023 14:24:16
Yes, but can he sing?
22 Nov 2023 19:08:16
I do agree with most of the above but let's look at the realy problem which stats at the top, our style of fooball is terrible which is down to the Manager, I've been supporting thee Irons for 70years and the style of football we are turning out is total rubbish, Benrahma was exciteing young player Now all he is a shadow of himself the skill has been replace by the fearfactor Just look how many our backroom staff has left which i beleave started with SPeace and untill we get rid of DM we will always struggle ITS TIME FOR HIM TO GO.
Ive seen good and bad teams at WH but the type of football we are playing now is worse the BI SAM and that was bad
22 Nov 2023 19:43:39
Agreed Devon and so many out there agree, problem is, we don't run the club. We can and all have seen the problems for some time and yet nothing has been done
24 Nov 2023 10:46:50
Didn't Carlton Cole DJ? Re "can he sing", arguably maybe musical
11 Nov 2023 14:05:49
Rumours that City will be back in for Paqueta in January. With the investigation still ongoing, wouldn’t that be a bit of a (ahem) gamble?
11 Nov 2023 14:11:46
I wouldn’t be surprised.
15 Nov 2023 19:14:18
Sell him, and use the proceeds as we did last window. I'd AGAIN suggest we need good full backs, a replacement for him and strikers
16 Nov 2023 13:40:18
Nahhhhhh if MOYES is still in charge he will move COUFAL up front and stick with Antonio and INGS up front, Move OGBONNA to the left wing after he sells Benrahma. Cresswell will be trained as a 3rd Keeper, Paqueta will be sold to CITEH and Zouma will take his creative midfield spot. This way MOYES can target Centre Backs in the next window and bring in MAGUIRE and Evans from Manc Utd.
06 Nov 2023 21:17:08
From recent events and revelations, it's now totally clear that Tim Steidten's appointment at West Ham had absolutely nothing to do with David Moyes. This explains a lot and indicates that Moyes is on borrowed time.
I think we will beat Forest and Burnley, but I don't think that will save Moyes' job. I believe Moyes will go at some point over the authority over transfers and/or the lack of return on a spend approaching half a billion pounds. Every fan discussion on Moyes currently seems to agree that Moyes is a dead man walking.
06 Nov 2023 22:03:03
I also have a gut feeling that John Heitinga could be the unlikely choice for the Moyes replacement. If Moyes goes during this season (🤞🏻) then Heitinga is already placed to be caretaker. Whether he remains as permanent manager depends on results.
07 Nov 2023 12:03:50
I would rather see Kevin Keen our in place as caretaker he's done it before
08 Nov 2023 07:06:01
No Surprises GRAHAM Potter has been heavily tipped to take over. Love him or hate him, he had his Brighton Team playing some decent football.
In other news "David Moyes makes it clear star Michail Antonio is finished as first choice at West Ham"! How long have the fans been saying this and he has finalkly realised now. We had the oppoertunity to offload him in Summer but didn't.
Speaking of Summer, we were very interested in Kelechi Iheanacho and did nothing but we persisted with ANTONIO (Not sure how the 2 can be mentioned in the same breath, one is a striker and am not sure what the others actually preferred position is) . NOW it seems, Antonio is finioshed and we are interested in Iheanacho? You couldn't make this up lol and Leicester will not sell him now unless its something extravagent
08 Nov 2023 08:58:52
Remember, the fans know nothing and Moyes knows best! 🙄
08 Nov 2023 12:37:09
Ah yeah, good job you reminded me Tin, we fans know nothing! Moyes is the messiah and Antonio is overly criticised. Tomas Soucket has been identified as a replacement for LIONEL MESSI and AARON CRESSWELL is one of the best Left backs in the league.Ya de ya de ya. How long have we been saying that some players live in a fantasy world where they think they are better than they are. Antonio for instance. He scored in first few matches last season, set himself a target with his HUGE EGO and never scored again for months. He has done nothing for us since Aug except fall over his own VELCRO. Anyway, good news is TIM STEIDTEN is drawing up a list of possible replacements and Bielsa and Benitez will not be on it. It seems he is looking for younger managers with more to offer
09 Nov 2023 01:10:34
It appears that Moyes was told after the Brentford game that he would not be getting a new contract. Why he then didn’t say “Bollocks, I’m off” remains a mystery.
09 Nov 2023 09:47:25
Maybe he is trying to prove a point?
11 Nov 2023 12:38:36
More like he's too obstinate to believe he's not wanted.
12 Nov 2023 11:18:47
And now it transpires that one of my favourites for the job, Michael Carrick, is on the West Ham board radar. Watch this space.
13 Nov 2023 18:22:39
Rather have will still
13 Nov 2023 21:10:02
You would like Carrick over Moyes as manager of West Ham United?
14 Nov 2023 01:06:24
But if and a big if we won the Europa cup would the sack moyes I don't think so go and try and get FRANK and if it's a no then O'NEILL will do.⚒⚒⚒
20 Nov 2023 22:30:04
Ido like G.Oneill gets his men fit, plays good attacking football with pace. our biggest problem other than Bowen we lack pace.
24 Nov 2023 04:44:24
“You would like Carrick over Moyes as manager of West Ham United? “
I’d rather have Michael Carrick’s dustbin as manager of WHU than David Moyes!
29 Nov 2023 21:28:59
yup, we're no good just keep playing poorly and fans keep paying.
31 Oct 2023 15:56:52
10% of Gold shares up for sale. Watch this space.
01 Nov 2023 18:41:33
Not for me, thanks.
06 Nov 2023 11:27:07
Will she throw in a dildo or two.
06 Nov 2023 13:07:23
Moyes is not part of the deal.
06 Nov 2023 17:20:34
Antonio might be lol
06 Nov 2023 21:22:06
😂😂😂😂
25 Oct 2023 15:40:59
By all accounts, information from Hugh Southon, whose main source is David Sullivan, is saying that reports of Moyes and Steidten not seeing eye to eye in the summer are TRUE. Apparently, Steidten got so frustrated with Moyes' stubborn attitude that he considered leaving. Sullivan backed Steidten. Small wonder as, contrary to one report, it was Sullivan's idea to bring in Steidten, and Moyes had to accept it against his wish. Also, if Moyes gets offered a new contract, and it's a BIG if, Moyes will have to bow to Steidten's wishes on player recruitment. This has now come from several sources from within the club, and it makes common sense. I think this will be impossible for Moyes to accept, so it looks like This is Moyes' last season at WHU. Thank God.
25 Oct 2023 16:26:05
Since my last post above, I have now also seen the video ‘Sullivan Confirms Moyes and Steidten Do Not Get On” on YouTube. This confirms the rumours I’d heard.
26 Oct 2023 18:40:12
If he keeps playing like he has in the first half he might go before the Everton game - please
27 Oct 2023 06:57:56
Seemingly this is the main sticking point and reason why they are reluctant to offer him a new contract! Everton Sunday what's everybodys thoughts? Will we attack or will we sit back and let EVERTON come at us in which case we will get crucified
27 Oct 2023 10:45:30
Is the Pope catholic?
27 Oct 2023 11:45:55
Am going for 0-2, I just feel that MOYES tenure is about to come undone and the resilience of the board with be tested over the next few months. Fair play to MOYES, decent ish start to the season but its now getting to where we are facing teams who have worked his tactics out
27 Oct 2023 13:20:58
Sorry, Daisy, but I had to laugh out loud when you said, “his tactics.”
27 Oct 2023 15:49:59
I had to laugh whilst writing it LMAO
27 Oct 2023 16:41:13
The bottom line is David Moyes is more a hindrance than an advantage. His managerial strategy is not only outdated, but his abilities as a tactical coach and a man manager are non-existent. It's my belief that, now we have Tim Steidten in post, the board (Sullivan) are hoping Moyes goes of his own accord or will not accept the terms and conditions of a new contract. If WHU win a trophy or achieve a top 6 finish in the Premiership, they MIGHT feel obliged to offer him a new contract, but I think they know Moyes will not accept being subordinate to Steidten in player recruitment. They also know that Moyes is childish enough NOT to play any player who arrives who has not been Moyes' own selection. This is plainly obvious by his reluctance to play certain players recently. You are either in the Moyes clique, or you're not.
History under Sullivan shows that the WHU board never offer a manager in post a new contract until the current contract is done. That way it doesn't cost Sullivan any compensation. We are stuck with the donkey until the end of the season.
The match against Everton won't be easy, but Lady Luck may yet again smile on Moyes, despite them knowing exactly what our tactics are before a ball is kicked. Moyes has been lucky until now, and it wouldn't surprise me if he appears on Sunday evening covered in sh*t, but carrying a bunch of roses. We'll just have to wait and see.
28 Oct 2023 23:52:15
2-2 just pure intuition only.
29 Oct 2023 14:01:39
That was a truly awful 1st half of football.
Make no mistake, Everton will probably take the points here today as we are just so poor. Two shots, one on target (ish), at home against another really poor side is utter dog£! &*.
Trouble is I just can't see how Moyes is going to be able to change things, it's not as if he can inject any pace or guile into the side with his subs now is it?
Praying for a better 2nd half and a comfortable victory, expecting a load more rubbish and a defeat though.
31 Oct 2023 20:15:56
Tinlegs I personally think you are far too critical of Moyes. I understand that some of his in game tactics fall short against some of the other elite Prem managers. But what Moyes does give, he gives his best and puts West Ham 1st, his loyal and hard working. Like most of the West Ham fans, we can relate. The players need to dig deep and ultimately do better on the pitch as against Everton the team were very poor.
Just maybe Tinlegs look at another narrative.
01 Nov 2023 08:12:24
I don't agree HAM-Eggs-Chips but of course this is why we have this site to express our own opinions. I believe that the players are fed up of playing the "LETS SIT BACK AND DEFEND and HOPE we get a goal on the break" Tactics. He has a lot to answer for. His poor treatment of players he doesn't want for instance Benrahma who now wants to leave. Refusal to bring youth through and allow them to leave. Playing players out of position (why buy players who are naturally good in one position and play them somewhere else)? The list goes on and on and how many times do we go through the same issues. We have a slump in form. Players don't look interested. There is no consistency and then of course, the well documented SAGA with TIM STEIDTEN. We look stail, flat footed and a yard off the pace and its down to the manager to motivate them. Of course asfter every defeat its the players fault, never his, always the players. He is so arrogant and self centred he can't even admit his own failings. And of course, let's not forget one of ther most important skills a manager should have and that's being able to read a game and change tactics on the fly. Moyes has one strategy and one only!
01 Nov 2023 22:03:33
Within the football squad there will always be disagreements and fall outs, some stuff will leak out and be made out to be more than what it is, some stuff won’t leak. Moyes I believe has been great to the team, Benny get his chances but majority of the time he doesn’t take it. What Benny should do is make that position his own and be consistent. That wouldn’t give Moyes the headache he gets from a talented player that more than often don’t turn up on the pitch.
Playing players out of position that’s standard by all managers it happens unfortunately.
I agree that Moyes needs a better approach to integrate youth especially this season as the boys did so well last season at youth level.
The players won’t be frustrated at all
Playing Moyes style of play. We are West Ham, we win and many as we lose, being a pro player you would understand that teams at this level setup mainly not to lose.
05 Nov 2023 09:16:21
Do you still feel the same way after the debacle at Brentford? A perfect illustration of Moyes’ incompetence. I criticise him because it’s his fault. He has spent nearly half a million pounds on players, and for what? The sooner he goes, the sooner we lose this division between the supporters and we can get back to the business of supporting our club without all this divisive nonsense.
05 Nov 2023 10:28:11
Of course I meant half a billion, not half a million. Sorry for the typo.
05 Nov 2023 14:41:24
The incompetence was the defence
06 Nov 2023 08:08:36
And who coaches, trains and selects those defenders, and then directs the tactics?
06 Nov 2023 11:28:08
Zouma is out temporarily, eh?
06 Nov 2023 13:09:44
Zouma’s days of fitness are over, so be prepared for more periods of unavailability.
13 Oct 2023 14:25:07
Rumour has it that WHU are having a fire sale in January. The six players mooted to be on offer are:
Danny Ings
Pablo Fornals
Thilo Kehrer
Maxwel Cornet
Aaron Cresswell
Ben Johnson.
Added to these is the possibility of Kurt Zooma moving on.
I don't have a real problem with losing any of these. Zooma has a long term knee problem and could easily turn into another 'Ledley King'. Now would be a good time to cash in on him. The sooner Fornals, Ings and Cresswell go, the better for the players and the club. Cornet and Johnson should attract interest. My only reservation is Kehrer, who I believe could turn into a better player if settled into his correct playing position.
13 Oct 2023 16:00:57
Who in their right mind is going to buy Ings? He’s league one level at best, he’s going to want a settlement to leave for sure, or we are going to be paying his ridiculous wages elsewhere Just To send him out on loan, not a lot going to be re -couped from the others on that list, wages saved for sure, but it is six players needed in, minimum / looking forward money wise we have funds for possibly two, in January, but will have sufficient funds for another three / four at seasons end , so yes we could be saying goodbye to that lot , AND Fabianski from what I understand who is already asking for further years extension don’t forget Ogbonna, is also waving cheerio so many new faces will be required that’s for sure but this could be exiting times if handled properly
13 Oct 2023 19:00:57
Zouma just been made Captain. Makes no sense for him to move on Jan.
Creswell and Johnson will stay also as we need cover in Europe and they both have good experience.
Fornals will stay for the season all due to Europe.
Only player I can see moving on is Cornet.
13 Oct 2023 19:28:08
One of the near relegated or going for championship top 3 may go for Ings, he's not worked out but imagine Ant gets injured tomoro! Fornals etc don't add much, i agree Kehrer sometimes looks decent but then like Aguerd has a clanger
13 Oct 2023 20:05:32
According to reports, there’s no money in January unless we sell.
14 Oct 2023 12:06:51
Zouma is attracting interest from the Saudis and allegedly Sullivan is refusing to give him a lengthy contract due to his knee problem, so it’s very feasible that he might go. As for the captaincy - I’ve never really seen him as a captain and that has never prevented a player from going if he wants to. Recent history shows that. Besides, we have a more suitable candidate waiting in the wings. I think these names are likely to move if offers come in, but it must be early in January to enable replacements to be brought in. We all know how protracted that can be!
14 Oct 2023 15:31:52
Hmmmmm am sure I read that TIM STEIDTEN has already lined up 2 or 3 players to come in during the JANUARY window. Unless of course we have another MOYES/STEIDTEN stand off for another month of the window!
14 Oct 2023 22:02:02
Tinlegs, I don’t agree with you on this 1 fella. To me what you are suggesting makes little logic.
15 Oct 2023 00:27:23
That’s OK mate. I’m only passing on news. I think (can’t be sure) that the source was Claret and Hugh. The rest is just an opinion.
15 Oct 2023 00:38:06
I think it's the idea of planning first before getting the money in the kitty first. Putting the cart before the horse we called it in my day lol
15 Oct 2023 12:26:54
Before anyone suggests we do have money left over from the sale of Rice, Scamacca and Vlasic - I understand that some of that revenue went towards repaying a loan the club had. Could be mistaken, but it does explain why we have to sell to raise funds for further purchases. Who knows?
15 Oct 2023 21:40:04
If Zouma were to leave due to Saudi interest and his knee problem, then the interest in Maguire makes perfect sense.
15 Oct 2023 21:54:04
Anyone but Maguire. 🙏🏻
22 Oct 2023 17:10:05
Maguire is a class act that can't get in the United first 11 but easily good enough for us. He thinks?
23 Oct 2023 13:03:03
Thats ok, when Jan comes I'm sure MOYES will turn to MAN UTD players AGAIN because he knows nothing else. Its comical and with a few more losses MOYES will be under severe pressure. Should've got WILL STILL last year when we had the chance, but no
25 Oct 2023 14:13:07
And those who said we were lucky not to have Michael Carrick after 4 games of the season are looking pretty stupid now. Boro’ are up to 7th and improving all the time.
