Ambulance needed fast ,massive cardiac arrest,prognosis ,only hope an immediate heart.translant ,surgical team standing by and donor organ not yet found ,outcome ,? Patient extreamly weak and cannot be expected to live if transplantation does not take place expeditiously, conclusion ,massive coronary bought on by an under active lifestyle and an extreamly ambivalent attitude at place of work ,not willing to take responsibility ,nonchalantly thinking everything will be ok and not heeding the warning signs ,probable outcome ,not good ,if donor not found by Christmas patients readings will have finally gone to the bottom of his chart and the inevitable outcome will be terminal decline over the following four months .

Cheering on Spurs for once?

hard to swallow yes, but listening to wenger saying they are 'out to prove there's no shift in the balance in north london'….makes me hope the lesser of the two evils actually loses this one. How or why wenger is still there is beyond comprehension, but i'd love to see the 'unsackable' one get stuffed again in a big match. Time after time history repeats itself, he makes the same bumbling mistakes over and over and i hope once again his team get beaten and put out of the title race before xmas.

Today its paul ince the other day it was T.C. Then Parkes various other football people all saying West Ham fans have got to get behind the club and support the players we are all in this together blah blah blah...well guess what we don't need to be told that they want commitment from the fans well guess what its been there all the time shame you can't say that about our players....so to all those ex players/pundits why not go tell the players to go out and give us something worthy of supporting....we are always here and will be when there poor fragile egos have moved on to some other club....pffff just had to get that off my chest.

Arnautovic.....oh dear

the following if you have not seen are his own words.....
Marko Arnautovic has bitten back hard at the knockers who have dubbed him a waste of space since his move to the London Stadium

The Austrian international is well known for taking no prisoners and snarled: “Most of them have no work, probably no life and no idea.”

But he told Laola1. “I respect every real fan, so don’t get me wrong.

“They were all happy to have me come to West Ham because I had done very well at Stoke but they only see what happens in the stadium, they do not see what you do at training and in private. I am highly motivated.

“I know I have a strong character, I know I can get back to where I was. I have lost nothing and I’m not in crisis. West Ham can count on me 100 per cent.”

I came to the club as a record transfer, we played Manchester United in my first game then I got a red card in the second – that was a setback, three games out so no match practice.

Then I came back and got sick – really sick – and then I went to the national team where I was not 100 per cent fit.

Gary Neville also took a pop at his attitude during the 3-0 defeat to Brighton, though the £25 million signing claims his analysis was a scandal.

He added: “I respect what Gary Neville achieved as a player. He excelled at Manchester United and hats off to him.

“But what did he do as a coach at Valencia? His job is to criticise, that is 90 per cent of his job. I am not saying Gary Neville is a nobody. He has accomplished a lot in his life, he is a legend. But as a coach? Let him stay on the TV.

“All England is watching on that Friday night, the whole world is watching, and we lose 3-0 to Brighton. Who do you pick out? You pick me out, of course, because I’m the most expensive transfer. No other player was [picked out] but I was a scandal!

“But I do not want to criticise people, I’m a critic of myself. If I’m doing something good, I keep trying to work on myself. If I’m doing something bad, I try harder.”............
Now i don't no about you lot but i am sure season ticket holders and paying fans at the gate do not care what he shows in training or in private what they do care about and pay there money for is to see it when it matters as in an actual game....rumours they may get shot of him but who would have him and certainly not at price we paid or the wages he's on....

Ray Wilkins

Listening to him this morning on talksh**e he made a lot of sense...one of the few on that station who does....talking about our situation he said we got it wrong and should of redeveloped the boleyn as it was a great football ground and an intimidating one as well the new ground is not a football stadium players no it fans no it but the owners didn't strange that...and on the Moyes situation having made the decision to employ him it was very funny hearing mr gold saying "its a gamble taking him on"...what kind of message does that send out to the players and we the fans....Chelski man through and through is Ray but he and many others see what is wrong our owners cannot...is it because we all love football and they just love profit?

Now the dust is settled

I think no one really wanted Moyes tbh and the board just got the easiest and cheapest option available. However, that said, listening to Moyes in his interviews it does seem a little unfair to dismiss the man without a chance. He comes across as pretty humbled by his failures and hungry to put it right. I liked what he said about training, about wanting to win and play good attacking football. It could actually go well if you think about it. He could do an Everton sort of job but with a bit more flair this time using his experiences good and bad to make a good go of it. Its done and dusted, he's been appointed against most fans wishes, but lets be fair to the man surely and give him a chance at least? He comes across as pretty enthusiastic about the job, he's taken low wages with a bonus instead for good performance, he's accepted a short term deal as well because he knows he won't get a better offer…this is his last big chance surely if he fails so he's gotta be darn determined to show people he is a quality manager. Come on David, get us going against Watford…get some fight into the players and hopefully turn the atmosphere round at the L.S.

4-4-2 under Moyes?

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

He likes the basic back four which i think we need. its no nonsense defend defend. He likes full backs like Baines who can get forward to put in crosses which will suit Zabaletta and Creswell/Masuaku. He likes the big man tower up front so we can expect carroll in there (like it or not). So does this mean he will go basic 4-4-2 with carroll and hernandez up top? two central midfield workers (Obiang/Noble/Kouyate to choose). Lanzini wide and Antonio wide when fit. Not sure what to expect tbh, its underwhelming for sure. But i guess its improvement on the field we all want first and foremost. will it happen?
