West Ham Rumours

20 Jan 2025 17:36:02
WH losing out on Wahi, to Eintracht, they are getting close, looks like, WH are not interested, if we are, best do something quick

Nah Joyful, we would rather make huge phantom bids for players where the club has no intention of selling.

20 Jan 2025 16:16:28
So, funds are tight are they (somebody somewhere is full of crap) BREAKING: WHUFC bid worth £57m including adds for John Duran. Expected to be rejected as AVFC have no intention of selling 21yo striker who recently extended to 2030

Just told the rest of the world we aren't skint, Sullivan will still send out a few low ball bids though.

Wonder how much villa actually want? I'd imagine we bid just low enough so that it would he accepted. at least he tries though.

Why don't they offer £30m for both jonathon david and angel gomes?

20 Jan 2025 18:55:25
David wants a big sign on fee and I read a while ago his agent wants a big sum also, he'll also have champions league clubs after him in the summer and could probably go somewhere that may offer him 200-300k a week.

Gomes was meant to be a pre contract for the summer although we could definitely do with him now, just have a feeling someone else will come in for him while dave dithers.

I can not see anyway David will come to West Ham as he is probably running his contract down so he can get a dream move in the summer. I’m very surprised that Angel Gomez is seriously interested in coming to us and wouldn’t mind betting it is another ploy by Sullivan to appear that he is actually serious about buying the player yet by leaking it, it alerts other teams in a better position than us, to his availability. Hopefully I’m just cynical and that we do end up landing AG

Mr Sullivan thinks he knows all the answers, whilst it’s been proved beyond all doubt he doesn’t, nobody does, if you can get 9/10 right with players, you will hit the jackpot, Steidten failed badly, he’s head is on the block, waiting to be chopped, he will pick up his severance pay, and hope to find other mugs elsewhere

20 Jan 2025 12:43:06
Soler, PSG, are definitely asking WH to buy the player why? You may ask, there iis no date set at present, for WH to do so, nevertheless, if WH can do a cheap deal, why not, it also frees up loan space in this window if they do

20 Jan 2025 10:03:52
Small rumours emanating from WH , Baris Yilmaz, some people are pumping this up, would like to see it, but there's nothing concrete , Kvistgaarden of Brondby, WH are linked, also linked with Lloyd Kelly, who wants, away from Newcastle, but WH can't pay those type of wages, ,

18 Jan 2025 22:16:33
Sorry this is why I have been so sceptical, I just don't see, the ups, others seem to, all I know is if we play like today again, better sides than Palace, will find it easy to push us aside, we need a further 12 points this season , playing like today, who exactly are we going to beat? We didn't have a shot on goal today! I have never seen that before, I understood why Potter set up like that, there was no choice, I hope our new manager really knows what he's got himself into, Sullivan has painted himself into a corner, if you think last summer was busy, (providing we stay up) the next one will be mad

18 Jan 2025 22:54:15
We looked good against villa until fullkrug and summerville came off. I think against fulham it was nice to see us score goals by pressing as a unit which we haven't seen in quite some time.

Suggestions that soler might have been carrying a knock that's why he didn't start? I can't see any other reason why he'd drop soler for Cresswell.

As for transfers our summer would be a lot less mental if we make a couple signings now, we are going round in circles.

We'll always be a circus while sullivan is in charge unfortunately

19 Jan 2025 10:29:03
Remember where Villa where pre Emery, he was backed on a continual basis, and still is continually, and they ruthlessly shed, their poorer players, and they had many that’s what Sullivan should be looking at, and to the standard they have achieved now

19 Jan 2025 10:42:43
I didn’t go to the Fulham or Palace games so maybe difficult to comment. I did see the Villa game and it was, IMHO a breath of fresh air to what we have seen over the last couple of years. As you say things changed when Summerville had to go off, but we did also show some guile after we went 2.1 down. Managers have so many different facets and there are always going to be things we like or dislike. Potters positives are numerous as he seems to create a good harmony and team spirit around the players which is so important. He seems very organised and understandable and relatable. Giving Scarles his debut was absolutely brilliant and hopefully he gives many more of our youngsters the chance.
His downsides from what other fans from other clubs have said are, he is too defensive and he continually tinkers with the line up and set up. I do not understand why Scarles was dropped after such a brilliant debut and Soler being dropped yesterday were completely wrong imo. And even though it sounds like we were far better organised, yesterday and Tuesday we did still concede twice, but we had no shots on target! Obviously the poor guy has joined mid season and didn’t have the benefit of pre-season matches and has inherited a bit of a s@@t show so he does need to be given plenty of time. Even as poor as we must have been yesterday I personally don’t see us being relegated simply because of new players and simple maths I think our current points total gives us enough buffer.
I just hope that when players return and his players are brought in he uses the villa game as the blueprint for how we will try to play. Because if we are just set up not to loose, then we will be back to square one from when Moyes was in charge.
