So most of the second string got a run out against Brentford yesterday a chance to show Moyes that they should of been given more of a chance throughout the season but they failed miserably...this does not bode well for next season.

So the squad needs a major overhaul but do we have the scouts to unearth gems like Brighton/Brentford do? i am not so sure.

GK....Fab should of done better with the first goal yesterday and he is not getting any younger....Areola well he let in a poor goal midweek and that is not good so the coaching staff need to work hard there if these two are to be part of the squad next season.

Def.....Johnson not good enough Cresswells time has come Emerson for a seasoned champs league and prem player just switches off Aguered has a rick in him Ogbonna its his age Zouma a lumbering lump ok at heading so a fair bit to sort out there.

Mid....Lanzini leaving Soucek just getting worse each game Downes needs more time to mature at this level but also needs gametime Rice going Fornals confidence shot Pac needs to stop the square pass he has a tendency to do but he is the man we have to build the mid round next season.

Forwards......Ants worryingly looks our best but his age and injury history not the best at all and wanting out of the club in Jan not a good sign..Ings well why? whats the point?Scamacca Moyes has no time for Benny lets face it Moyes does not really like him but has to play him Bowen is excellent but he needs help.

Whoever is in charge be it Moyes or someone else next season they have a major job on there hand and will have a lot of players to move on and a major rebuild IMO...if we win the conference cup and are in europe next season that may help with recruiting better players but we have to win it to be able to do that.

Gk/Fab..Nipps
Def/Coufal...Aguered
Mid/Pac..Downes..Fornals
Fwds/Bowen...Benny

Draconian indeed and of course not all of the players will be moved on but so many need to improve Cornet is one for starters but if we are to avoid another season like this one major changes to the squad IMO has to happen.

Come to the London Stadium get behind the boys make it a cauldron of noise the fans heard the call the fans turned up the fans made noise all that was asked of them they gave they believed then the game kicked off and Moyesball was in clear view for everyone to see.

I'm a winner its what i do he says but he cacked his pants again got the players to sit off the opposition and lets face it paint drying was more of spectacle.....there gk made a great save..Nipps were you watching...and that was it we let them pass it around no pressing it was easy for them and as ever we made it hard for ourselves.

That team were there for the taking but the players were slow in any kind of passing and movement was slack so easy to to deal with i bet the AZ players could not believe how easy the game was.

once we got the pen and converted we started to play a bit and it was obvious that there gk was worrying about crosses in the box under pressure and there defenders struggling to stem the tide we go a second and we all thought keep this up we will get a third but of course we then started to ease off and "protect" the lead we had and that i reckon will bite us on the arse.

We all know how Moyes sets up next week and it will be wrong because AZ will play a lot more on the front foot infront of there own fans so i want to be proved wrong but if Moyes persists in playing this way we and i hope i'm wrong but i fear the tie will be lost.

Take Soucek out of the side replace him with Downes if you dare let that youngman sit infront of the back four and let Rice and Pac run the show in the middle of the park but of course that means a bit of forward thinking and that is something that Moyesball will never do.

We won yes but not as convincingly as it should be and many fans like me are just fed up with this dreadful style of football...another year of that do me a favour.....by restricting our players playing he kills the team but Moyesball is a machine you must not deviate from the plan..yawn yawn yawn.

Seasons over the three that go down would you look at any of there players? i think you would be mad not to.

if Leeds go i would like to see Wilfried Gnonto

If Leicester go then Harvey Barnes a player i have always rated

Southampton gone then its Che Adams no not Ward Prowse he will be stupid money if he was around £30/35 million then yes but he wont be.

So are there any players you like the look of?? with money coming in for a certain player of ours we have to shop wisely and not get stitched up with overpriced injury prone players.....Yeah i'm well aware Che Adams has a bit of a history but he is no Bamford!

Millscum 3-1 up at ht lost 3-4 and drop out of the playoffs gotta love that.

We played probably the best match of our season yesterday with every player putting in a shift and deservedly winning the match with that powerful unstoppable shot by Benny! but once again VAR and Attwell the var ref conspired against us in what was an obvious penalty to everyone except him and the spud Jenas.

How long is this going to continue?will it only stop happening when Mr Webb runs out of space to email his constant apologys for the mistakes made.

The ref sometimes cannot see the incident and in the old days he'd rely on one of his linesmen but nowadays they have better than that they have refs in a comfy studio looking at the screens zooming in rocking the pictures back and forth drawing sometimes straight lines sometimes the wrong lines so there can be no doubt as to a proper decision being made! how wrong can they get it....and i do believe it was Attwell who again did not give a clear penalty for us against the bindippers.

When you see this happening and mainly in favour of the Cabal of the premier league you cannot help but think of corruption...gone are the days when a manager meets up at the motor way services for the old brown envelope.

this time we did not need the decision and got the points thankfully but how long will it be before a side gets relegated because of obvious mistakes by VAR decide they are not having it and a court case arises.

So having a browse this lunchtime for various stories about West Ham and you get all the usual stuff then i saw a little story saying that "West Ham" are really worried they could lose both Rice and Soucek this summer.

Had to smile and laugh and say it would not come as a surprise to me or any fan that we have no plans in place as to what they will do if & when it happens.

When the seasons over i will be taking a break from the site and keep away from all the rumours because it does do your head in sometimes.....and i have a feeling this summers goings on will tip many a fan over the edge! but hey take a look across the channel and PSG it seems they are now trying to rival us as the biggest circus in town!

10 men, 9 men 8 men etc and their fork lift truck etc, etc. Ha Ha , well it seems the way to wreck your status as a club legend. Is not to have one stint but 2 stints as manager. The second stint losing your first 5 games and becoming the record holder for that very achievement!!

Well done Frank, you must be a shoe in for us Irons now. PS I'll send one of those big Jeff off Manitou's round to carry your fat arse out of the scum gates...

Which of these four goals against the spuds is your favourite...i no they all will be but which is the one that you enjoy the most.

1...Ravel Morrison and that brilliant run and goal

2...Pedro Obiangs absolute rocket out of nowhere at Wembley

3...Antonios being the first goal scored let in at there new toilet bowl

4...Manuel Lanzinis wonder strike

Now you may of noticed that all those goals were scored away from home which makes them all the more special and there is nothing like sticking it to those overinflated overrated egos that are the spuds fans and i wonder how many will be off sick tomorrow because they have to call into talkshite and moan like they always do

and my fav was Antonios because i was there but all of them were brilliant goals that will live long in the memory

COYI

Tottenham get battered everywhere they go:-)

Ok we are all sick to death on the Rice going here Rice going there that wont stop until the media get him sold but how much is he worth? the Gooners said to be the only club that interests him right now and with Chelski not in europe and we dont deal with the spuds who else? Manure are well just that Citeh maybe and after last nights impressive goal Madrid? Barca? Bayern?

Those last three wont have the money so that leaves the domestic market and considering he still has two years to go on his contract West Ham have to hold firm regardless of Rices wishes and not get our pants pulled down over a miserly £70/80/90million bid thats rumoured all the gooners will pay...if that was the case then i'm sorry players wishes or not he stays because when he gets to the final year of his contract we would still get the £70/80 million even then.

So if the Gooners came in with say £80 milion +Reiss Nelson and Smith-Rowe would you deal then or say £120million he's yours or jog on?.

People say he has to go to a big club but we are that stop selling ourselves short...only Manure have bigger crowd attendances this season...Gooners/Spuds/Barcodes/Bindippers nowhere near....if you want to be in Europe and a big club you have to act like one and not buckle just because some club ENVYS what you have and think they deserve to have it instead of you because they are supposedly bigger.

So how much is enough or or could he would he if we got Europa league football next season a new manager and big investment again would he say you no what i'll have another year here.....grasping i maybe but in football you just dont know he may just think give Chelski a year to sort themselves out and then go.

He's finally signed a permanent contract with Besiktas and I have to say I'm quite sorry to see him go. He's obviously made a good impression there and I doubt there will be very few of us Hammers who will forget his wonder goal for us against Chelsea.
His departure however has left me with some thought, as in my idle mindless moments I am prone to try and figure out the best foreign XI we have ever bought. And it's always the left back position that has got me stumped. Too early to give thoughts on Emerson and Masuakus' selection would give probably give howls of derision from this forum.The only other one I can think of is Ilunga who had a wonder first season then totally fell off the radar. Have I missed any other LB's?
