Not a bad game for friendly, can see what Lop is trying to do with the side. got to be honest though, I think starts for Coufal, Aguard, JWP, Soucek and Antonio (tbf he wasn't bad today) are going to be rare for them this season.


2.) 11 Aug 2024 09:34:56
The system could suite Antonio instead of him chasing long balls again.st 3 defenders

Benrahma and Cornet out perhaps today and loan for Broja? Get the feeling we have to shift a couple before we bring anyone in. Broja might let Ings go to Celtic. Huge domino-based window I think

Palace have agreed terms over potential Maxwel Cornet loan but move still hinges on West Ham being able to sign a replacement.which is doubtful. Whispers of ismaila sarr on loan


2.) 01 Feb 2024 18:38:10
The left-side was supposed to be where we need strengthened and we are letting both Benrahma and Fornals go. Let's hope this mystery loan deal doesn't fall through, also gives moyes an excuse to keep pushing paqueta out on the left and keep soucek nd jwp centrally.


3.) 26 Mar 2024 01:08:13
Young Clarke of Sunderland is a promising left winger we could possibly get.

That’s Kudus in. Thank you WHUFC.

Fabulous signing.


2.) 27 Aug 2023 22:05:25
Yes i agree perhaps we could play a little football instead of letting our opponents have 80% of the ball and our 20%, yes it worked but whatever happened to the WH way where we crossed the half way line similar to our opponents. The quality of players we now have deserve to play attacking football its like Big SAM has returned. i do admit it was a great result but is this how we want our team to play because I DONT


3.) 28 Aug 2023 00:50:17
This early in the season I’m well happy with 7 points you can’t buy confidence we have seen the seasons where has gone wrong and players have struggled we ain’t going to play like that every game because every team is set up differently just enjoy the wins


4.) 29 Aug 2023 10:43:54
Kudos to that signing, hallelujah to our start outta the traps too.


5.) 07 Sep 2023 01:17:34
Yes dizzy heights indeed, enjoy all. Who's up next team wise?


6.) 06 Nov 2023 11:26:20
Enjoying our forward line recently

Disappointed with the starting lineup. How many times does Moyes have to lose to Brighton to change it up. I'd rather he played the mid-week team again to throw an unknown in there.

That said 38 SoG and no return shows there's potential but we need points. If we had beaten NF we would have been okay-ish after 3 games.

Looks like we've been figured out. Allow the counter attack to go wide and flood the box with defenders instead.

Hoping we have a 2021-22 Arsenal season now :)

1.) 22 Aug 2022 06:30:41
We don't have an odergaard to run the midfield. Rice has gone awol, soucek is still on holiday leaving nothing. This team is crying out for fofana but I see we are linked with more cbs


2.) 22 Aug 2022 08:20:48
Moyes has got to sort out his starting back 4 and try and stick with it whilst players heal and get fit. Cresswell is past it and currently so is Coufal. Our transfers take far to long. WHY? We need a damn LEFT BACK and we need it now, noiw in a weeks time. Put EMERSON on the left, Johnson on the right and Ogbonna and another in the centre. Drop or Sell SOUCEK, put Vanaken and Rice in front of the back 4, with Traore on the right, Cornet on the left, Seko Fofana in the middle behind Scamacca. That has pace, power and goals all over the place and goals win games. In fact I really like that starting 11 LMAO


3.) 22 Aug 2022 11:35:48
You have pretty much hit the nail on the head here. The problem we (and Moyes) have is the fact that we don't have the players capable of effectively playing in a 4-2-3-1.

As soon as the opposition FBs push up high, our wingers are effectively pinned in our own half leaving us as a 4-5-1 with an isolated striker, then what happens is if our wingers don't track back or the FB's get caught up the pitch, we end up getting overloaded in MF/DF.

Until we get full backs who can bomb up and down the wings, wingers who track back properly, a #10 who can move the ball quickly and the "double pivot" of CMs and CB's actually getting the ball to our own players, Moyes default setting is going to get carved up every single game.


4.) 22 Aug 2022 14:26:46
Benrahma deserves a place in the starting line-up.


5.) 22 Aug 2022 15:17:09
I've got to say that as soon as I saw the starting XI, I knew we'd struggle. Fornals, Antonio and Soucek should never have started. They have been passengers so far and Moyes seems to be devoid of ideas. His answer to liven up the midfield - bring on Lanzini! The manager is getting some things right, but his tactical abilities leave a lot to be desired. Another lacklustre performance completely devoid of ideas. If things don't change soon, we'll be back to Pellegrini days, looking over our shoulders. At the moment there's nothing to see because nobody is behind us!

Ballot for Europa cup final tickets is open. Closes 28th April with draw 6 May so we’ll know whether to accept tickets if you are lucky enough to get some

The way rashford is going he will end up like DELE ALI fading into a bit part player what a shame and waste of talent he HAS to move from UTD this seasons next window I can't stop dreaming of a 3 man midfield RICE,SOUCEK,BELLINGHAM now before people slaughter me I know he's more than we could dream of I rate him very very highly him and FODEN must start more games for ENGLAND at the world cup.


2.) 24 Apr 2022 11:50:28
Bellingham is top quality already and has plenty of development ahead of him.

Take him in a heartbeat.


3.) 24 Apr 2022 21:35:19
Sure we don't really know all Ten Haag's plans yet. And whom is still featured in them. He needs some rabbits in his hat to reveal in the summer.


4.) 29 Apr 2022 11:52:17
I do not actually care about Man Utd other than to finish higher than them; which is of course then a Hammers' issue


5.) 30 Apr 2022 19:50:57
Hehehe I found link to hammers in that am sure Boleyn' s named ultimately from a region of France hence can mention their elections i'm Passim then.


6.) 03 May 2022 10:21:25
Rubberton, yes and we should pick up Juan Mata on a free IMHO.


7.) 03 May 2022 10:32:06
Huguenot? I think Hainault near West Ham is similar

King Arthur signed for Sunderland. Nice to see Masuaku back in the PL

Kib

1.) 08 Aug 2025 18:29:21
Was a funny player for us had flashes of brilliance but would then make a basic mistake be interesting to see how he is now after a few years away


2.) 08 Aug 2025 18:51:56
Bowen will have him on toast next weekend if he plays


3.) 09 Aug 2025 11:16:36
Rigobert Song anyone rofl ? ?


4.) 09 Aug 2025 23:04:31
Cos he wasn't a defender ROBBO2 his best position was left midfield had his best games for us in that position just couldn't defend and I think DIOUF might be very similar but a tad better but similar the way they play but DIOUF puts a better ball in the box.COYI⚒️⚒️⚒️


5.) 09 Aug 2025 23:05:31
Doubt he will start next week probably a bench player.COYI⚒️⚒️⚒️

Have to say this concession check is poorly timed. My deadline is Tuesday, grandkids away until following Saturday so delay incoming to issue their digital tickets. Nevermind I renewed in March and have documented proof of acceptance back then (passports and photos of attendance) .

Next two home games are six-pointers. I appreciate transition takes time but shame we’re at that stage already.

Kib

1.) 02 Oct 2024 17:06:45
It all depends how you see it . For me it's Europe.


2.) 02 Oct 2024 17:13:38
Six pointers nope . We ain't going to be anywhere near the relegation places at the end of the season. Europe maybe. I have issues with the coach. I suspect he's better suited to Spanish football.

Not getting a shirt this season. Umbro using it to market themselves and the red diamond looks atrocious.

So 9th it is this season. Be interesting to see player mentality coming up next game; on the beach or challenge ourselves against best team etc. score draw possible but we need to sting them hard and early

Kib

1.) 16 May 2024 18:57:46
We are not (yet? ) top six contenders. The squad is both small and ageing and Lopetegui has a lot of work to do with Steidten to revamp it.

Top half of the table isn’t bad in spite of our hopes at the beginning of the season.

And, of course, fate would have it that we’re kingmakers this weekend.

The summer window ahead of next season is a real fresh start and I, for one, am quite excited about it.

Can we sue the FA for lost income due to the faffing around his case?

I believe the financial clout of STHs is overestimated. Say 60000 capacity at a generous 80% sold at an average (pure guess for easy math) of £750 is £36M annually— barely a player these days.

Now corporate hospitality and ad-hoc ticket sales obviously increase this along with the store revenue and tv income. But I imagine wages are the largest expense eg paying Danny Ings et al for nothing.

Not saying the board and shareholders may not put themselves first but given the increase in wages and player purchase costs the proportion that ticket sales generate probably have been markedly reduced.

Price is right for 27yo at least. Not sure we should be looking at Ramsdale. Southampton so poor.

Any financial tail to this? Subsidy or pay off? Or simply a no-fee squad slot opened and 1yr wages Saved?

Iron Al,
There is a difference between the Paqueta of yesterday and that of the last two years. Yes keep yesterday’s one. Fouled, gets up straight away, chases and forms a goal. Topped the stats. You’d forgive a few giveaways easily. Last weeks Paqueta would have sat on the ground staring at the ref after getting knocked over.
