Geordies

Submitted by newburkie on

So how do we approach a subject like Newcastle ?, got to say they looked unstoppable tonight against Staints who put up a spirited fight once they survived the initial onslaught ,but the Giordies were always in control .
Well i think its pretty predictable ,Moyes ,unless im very much mistaken will sit back and try to hit them on the break ,in other words Ant running the bollox off himself untill he takes him off with 15 minuets to go Fourcandles and the Chec will bludgion thier way around the place like a couple of headless chickens ,Bowen will run up and down the right flank until hes put in the middle with the departure of Ant our full back will be like dear caught in the headlights ,Rice will be uninterested making sure he doesn't get injured ahead of his move to the gooners .
If the Geordies play like they did tonight in the first half they'll eat us with salt & pepper ,its outstanding the 180 % turn in them i one year,
My advice ?, try and freak them out like the saints did, send someone out to buy some light blue away shirts, make them think their playing man shity.

The future as i see it

Okay we seemingly are stuck with Moyes until the summer but what then? i have been looking at our squad and have made a list of what i see as the deadwood and needs getting shot of and players i think we should keep....if all of it happened there is one hell of a rebuild job required and it does concern me that our current owners having had there fingers burned last summer if they are still our owners will think twice about such extravagant spending this summer to come.

Players to be released IMO

Fabianski/Cresswell/Coufal/Ogbonna(age)/Zouma(injuries)Kehrer/Lanzini/Soucek/Antoni/Ings.

Players to keep again IMO

Areola/Johnson/Aguered/Emerson/Fornals/Downes/Paqueta/Bowen/Benrahma/Scamacca.

and one player well rather the invisible man i am totally unsure as to which list to put him in and that is Cornet.

So who do you thinks the deadwood and the ones worth keeping.

Win against Everton suddenly the media will be all see Moyes is the man for the job he gets a stay of executuion and everything is rosey again three league games later a stuffing by barcodes a loss to the Spuds and oh yeah we cant win for toffee no matter how much we throw at it chelski and it will be mmmm time for a change maybe.

This has to stop i want us to win and win well today of course i do but even if we win by a surprising say 3-0 and that would be some surprise Moyes still has to go.Does anyone honestly believe he can motivate our players to get a point let alone a victory in any of those three league games that follow todays?.

So lose he gets sacked is the rumour but as a fan and like many a long suffering one i do not want us to get beat and if he is sacked how much pressure would the new manager be under with those three games in the league to start with talk about a catch 22 situation as Glenda would say.

Only West Ham eh

Players need to take a look at themselves

Ok i think we've all had our say on Moyes but what about the players? they have been sloppy lazy and just not interested since the season began and they need to question there professionalism IMO...yes teams can have off days and even teams who have good days still lose but when you do not even try and put some effort in on the pitch then why the hell are you out there? if they were as quick during the matches played as they are to jump on social media and try to make out that they are hurting like the rest of us we may be in a better position.

They are the ones who take to the field every week and if it is not working then why the hell does the Captain not go to the boss and ask not demand but ask can we try something new as clearly what we are currently doing is not working and it is showing more and more each week the season drags on.

But of course nobody wants to do that they just want to go on there social media and try and tell us fans that they are doing all they can and will keep fighting for us....what a load of bollox.

If they were doing all that they can there would be improvement on defending throwins improvement on not getting caught out from our own Corners ffs it is all basic stuff yet the players cannot seem to do that....imagine your a builder and you kept failing each time you went to make a brick wall or dig out foundations etc how long would you be in a job? or would you be on social media spouting look i'm hurting like you are(despite the walls of your house falling down!)but i keep trying we will get it right blah blah blah. So as much as Moyes has to take the stick our Players and i mean every last stinking one of em deserve it just as much for not even trying despite there words that they say they are.

The Future

Rice gone Paq gone Scamacca gone Zouma gone Aguerd gone Fab gone Antonio gone Cornet gone Emerson we hope gone Kehrer the same Cresswell gone Fornals gone Bowen gone Benny gone Ogbonna retired Coufal/Soucek go home.....the club struggling in the bottom half of the championship with bless em maybe 30/35 Thousand fans in the BOM and MOYES still at the helm saying we need to take baby steps this is about building for the future then you open your eyes and wonder why the NEW West Ham shirt you just purchased has long sleeves and straps on the end and scream WTF IS HAPPENING TO MEEE only then to really wake up find out you are in an insane asylum and being a West Ham fan was just a bad dream and you smile to yourself and think hey lifes not so bad now!

Scamacca/Haller

Submitted by mcbikeman on

So Scamacca has not been that great and i see quite a few murmers about him being the new Haller etc but i am actually here to defend both players!

Haller when we got him i was over the moon and in first few games he looked like a proper striker and once settled in would be banging in the goals....it did not happen and i like many were thinking ffs another overpaid donkey here we go again and his body language and attitude stunk the place out so that was the reason he had to go....but why the was he like that? he was banging in goals for fun before we got him soon as we got our mitts on him we ruined him....sold to Ajax at a loss and suddenly he's banging in goals again in the champions league running heading closing people down WTF hows that and whys that happened? you ask...Ajax sold him for a profit! to Dortmund and away he goes again and thankfully he has now recovered from his testicular cancer problem and seems on the road back to recovery........So a player who is clearly good enough but we could not get the best out of him or even try to IMO better off to sell than try and come up with a solution.

Scamacca a young man who clearly also has the talent and you do not play as Italys number 9 unless you are able to but once again Cameo appearances and not getting the gametime to settle in flashes of his undoubted talent(calm down HG)but again his body language starting to show and he clearly looks lke a fish out of water at times but come on this Lad in my eyes clearly has something about him but for some reason we get our mitts on a promising player and turn him to shit.....if we sold him i have no doubt we will see him banging in the goals regular for someone else so lets not make the mistake again how about our Manager and so called coaches try something different eh.
