‘Scando’ or Scandelous

Submitted by Louis Nixon on

West Ham have decided to cut their costs on player transfers and have sent the scouting staff all over Scandinavia.

As of previous reports, we’ve already been in Denmark viewing both Lucas Høgsberg and Franculino Dju, following these, we’ve decided to view Sweden as well as Norway regarding future targets for the summer.

Perhaps we’re looking for the next Isak! Who not to mention, we lost on the ‘first’ one from Real Sociedad after refusing to match Newcastle’s fee.

Submitted by Louis Nixon on

It has been a few months since Tim Steidten’s dismissal, and with the dust now starting to settle, more and more details are beginning to be released to the public.

Seemingly, it appears that Steidten ended up falling out with Moyes as well as Lopetegui and was ‘banned’ from the training ground during his time at the club as well as the ban, he was also heavily criticised for the players that he’d brought in the windows that had just gone, which was one of many reasons to his eventual departure.

No result as of yet, but information has been released regarding Lucas Paqueta via Sky.

Before the official court dates started, Lucas was said to be betting thousands of pounds on himself. which gave the smallest of reasons as to why the FA wanted to ban him for life.

However, in due course, these rumours have now been crushed after it was announced that: “Half of the bets were under £50, most were under £100, the lowest of which was £7, Paqueta’s relative places an unusually large bet of £30 and the highest bet was £400”.

It’s become widely recognised and regarded by the fans that in this upcoming summer transfer window, we are in need of yet another supposed ‘rebuild’. A wide range of players are set to leave with a few out of contract and a few on the chopping block.

We already received numerous proposals for players in the January window with a few of them ready to be revisited come June, such as Monaco’s interest in Edson Alvarez.

Go’miss’ As West Ham Set To Side-eye Target

Submitted by Louis Nixon on

Graham Potter woke up this morning and might’ve finally realised how difficult transfers will truly be.

The club was met with the warming impression that Lille midfielder Angel Gomes is likely to not join West Ham on a pre-contract agreement after his seeming rejection of £100,000 per week.

In response to this, the club are planning to side-eye the English international and move on to other targets, with the idea of revisiting January target Ezechiel Banzuzi, who’s set to be available for £10,000,000 come the summer.

Match Of Managers Ends Equal

Two changes from the starting 11 today, with Aaron Cresswell and Ollie Scarles making way for a return of Mavropanos and Emerson.

For some reason, Potter has seen some light in the Greek and decided to give him yet another chance, which, seemingly in the 22nd minute already started to show worries when he became invisible, letting the ball go through and forcing Kilman to pick up the pieces.

The best effort of the half caused a stunning save from Pickford to be made, saving Brainthwate from the embarrassment of an own-goal after nearly deflecting it in.

Luck or Skill? West Ham’s Most Unbelievable Wins and What Made Them Possible

Submitted by Louis Nixon on

Football is ultimately a game of chance. West Ham United fans will know that more than others when it comes to watching The Hammers on the pitch.

While the sport is very much data-driven, given the use of statistics in the modern game, what happens on the pitch can be very different to what many may expect to happen. You can look at a piece of paper, analyze all of the data, make a prediction based on it, and then see something entirely different happen when the players are on the pitch.

Lacklustre Performance Equals Loss

Submitted by Louis Nixon on

The Hammers struggled to find anything from the game from start to finish on the Monday evening.

A game full of prodding and poking got us chances here and there, but when it came to those chances, they would all end with nothing.

In the first minute of the game, the ball was fizzed in by Kudus but would find Row Z after a Tommy attempt from close range.

Eyes covered in misery before the break as the best chance of the first half fell to Kudus, who was running through on goal but didn’t even manage to get a shot off, another underwhelming game from the Ghanaian.
