Harry Kane is being hypocritical / disingenuous imo
saying England players dropping put of Internationals should put Country before club?
So what are you earning Harry GBP or German Euros! ⚒⚒⚒

I have to agree with him Chelmsford. I’m not a massive nationalist but it should be a point of great pride to play for your country. I think the problem is bigger in that we shouldn’t even be having this ridiculous competition. We should be having World Cup qualifiers at the moment, but big business want these meaningless internationals., so we have to have these continual annoying breaks in the league schedule. I’m sure some of the players were genuinely injured but they always come from the same BIG clubs. I suppose on the plus side it can be good for the players that step in. Let’s face it England and West Ham’s heritage may be somewhat different if Jimmy Greaves hadn’t got injured in 66 as Geoff Hurst would never have got in the main side. I wish we dropped players like Paqueta who don’t perform and gave someone else a chance.

@hammer-d, with regards to Paqueta I thought he had a better game against Everton. It was his passes for summerville and ings that another say are goals and he gets 2 assists.
There were suggestions loppy was considering dropping Paqueta then Kudus gets a ban so that might be why he wasn't dropped.
They do say form is temporary class Is permanent so let's hope he can get back to previous levels at his best he can win games with moments of brilliance.
One thing we haven't seen much of this season is the link up between him and Emerson, now I wouldn't stick him out on lw like moyes did but on the left of a 3 man midfield in a 433 would suit him and the team better we might actually be able to progress the ball forward quickly for a change. Keep summerville on the left and play Kudus as a false 9.
Rcm would be a toss up between soucek or Soler.
Honestly think a 433 suits the players we have but we never see it.

The midfield is currently our Achilles heel. Alvarez obviously has an issue with the coach and it’s reflected in his frustrated tackling. Soucek is bereft of creativity and his passing ability is woeful. He needs replacing urgently. Paqueta’s head is elsewhere and it’s badly affecting his play.
We also urgently need a central striker.

Blaming Alvarez’s tackling on the manager? Talk about clutching at straws. That definitely sounds like speculation Tinlegs.

@die4, I'm thinking the same the only one I'd consider changing there would be soucek for Soler. Souceks scored some important goals and is good in both boxes but doesn't offer much in possession, think with soler he's much better on the ball and we might be able to get a bit more control in midfield with him in there.
@tinlegs have to agree with our midfield not being up to it, don't think the way loppy sets them up helps either infact probably makes it worse.
We are massively missing pace in there and a progressive ball player, hopefully we can get one in January I'd take that type of player over a striker in jan.

Don’t be ridiculous IronGeez/Caligula. Of course anyone with a brain will recognise that “reflected” means ‘one of the reasons’ and is not the sole reason. Your desperation to bring me down knows no bounds. Did I upset you in a previous life? This is hilarious, your forlorn attempts to make me look stupid. I love it! Please don’t give up. Keep them coming. I look forward to your posts. ?

Hi Tinlegs, just to clarify my own position - myself and IronGeez are not one and the same.
This all seems quite petty Tinlegs. I very rarely use the website so how you’ve got us mixed up I don’t know. I think this week on this website should have hammered home the point life is too short Tinlegs. Even the sad passing of Ed002 doesn’t seem to have made you see a bigger picture.

In that case, shouldn’t your last comment be directed at IronGeez, as I’m only responding to his dig at me which was posted after the passing of Ed002? I am not the instigator.

Tinlegs - no my comment is aimed at you as IronGeez hasn’t mentioned myself, you have. As I said I just came to clarify that he and I are not one and the same. If you could leave me out of your posts I would appreciate that. I ask that you do so because you fall out with too many people on here. That isn’t something I wish to be part of. Again please refer to previous post - life is too short. A message that seems to have passed you by, not once, but twice. I don’t actually want to converse with you on here, you’re probably not my kind of bloke, you certainly don’t come across on here as the age you claim you are. None of my 60+ mates carry on like you do, let alone over the internet. Thank you.

And none of my mates, of any age, make a habit of criticising others just for the sake of it, so my pleasure.

Hi Tinlegs, I have just asked to be left out of your posts.
Again - life is too short. You seem to take this website very seriously, considering it’s a ‘banter’ page.
