Lucas Paqueta Brazil international has 3 years left on his contract and we bid as being reported £33.7 million which has been rejected and told it has to be closer to £50million to get him...his agents are in London and looking to get a deal from a premier league club all fine and Dandy you think but then you See that Arsenal now looking at him and well if thats the case kiss any kind of deal goodbye........our constant low ball offers for players alerts other clubs and in they come this has to stop....Make offers that are realistic and not just headline grabbers which you then claim ahh we tried to get him but another club knicked him........i am all for negotiations but when you start off low balling the way we do clubs just not taking you seriously i mean if the shoe was on the other foot how peed off would the club be if Chelski/manure etc offered £60million for Rice they would not entertain it you hope!.

This Lucas Paqueta deal would be a big one for the club but if it is to happen for a player of his ilk you have to pay the going rate otherwise do not bid in the first place IMO.....it will be Onana all over again with Moyes changing his mind allegedly.

Seriously, have you heard the one about David Moyes and his post match interview????

"Brighton were the better team" - Yes they were David, a good fair statement!!

"We did some good things that never got noticed. Ahh David, that's a cracker.

Well, what can you say to that?? I mean seriously come on!!!!

Go back a year we were revelling in the mess that the spuds were under Nuno Espírito Santo they showed him the door because they were like we are now an embarrassment and becoming a laughing stock....they got Conte in and not looked back since.....We need to get rid of Moyes this has been going on to long and whilst i do not think Warburton would be a long term replacement he would make a good caretaker while better candidates are interviewed.

I think this will be a tough game today, Brighton are good with the ball, quick interchanges and can keep possession, if they had a decent goal scorer then they would be even better.
I think West Ham will need to work hard today closing down players and spaces, which is worrying because they haven’t shown much appetite for that so far this season.
I’m going for a 1-1 draw, don’t see West Ham winning this unless they show huge improvement.

As a supporter of our club the answer is yes but in all my days i have to say these last year since January we are not an easy watch.
The free flowing attacking football we started with last season has gone it is like an exorcism has been performed on the team and it has been driven out and replaced by a hollow shell of a side lacking any real enthusiasm for the game.
Whilst in all my years watching West Ham i am not about to claim we are world beaters but we have always been entertainers and yes it has not won us much playing that way but i would rather that than what of late has been served up.
I despair at the constant passing across the back line which is so slow i think i could play there! the lack of any movement in the middle of the park and lack of creativity is really alarming as we have always had players who can knock a ball around and create things but currently it would seem not.
The tactics of our manager to not lose a game also means we do not try to win even when playing at home that my friends for me is the wrong attitude to take and because of it we really are not easy on the eye and whilst its not a real concern other supporters just switch off and would rather watch paint dry than a West Ham game it is to me.
I love my football and enjoy watching others when our team is not playing but lately a lot of my pals who not being a fan of our club would rather play dominos or whist when we are on.
So Mr Moyes please do something to make us exciting to watch again maybe play Antonio wide right Scamacca through the middle and maybe our gem of a player bowen dovetailing behind that would be exciting and something different to see.

Just out of curiosity. What would happen should both West Ham & Slavia Prague qualify for the league stages of the Europa Conference & draw each other?
Is there not a conflict of interests with the Kretin?

Know its not a reference to only fools and horses but to what happened at the Weekend when Graham Souness commenting on the chelski spuds match said it was a throwback a real "mans" game and how he got Lambasted by all the feminists for calling it that as its outdated and non inclusive as womens sport just as good.Oh shut up will you for goodness sake he was not saying that and yes the womens euros was brilliant but to say it is as good be realistic Women cannot ever hope to compete physically with men in professional sport men are bigger men are stronger men are faster it is a simple biological fact but a lot of women today do not like to hear that well as a Woman of the world let me just say if i had a choice to either watch women play or men i choose the men and not for the shorts reason lol no it is just simply men are better at it than women and for those ladies who still think otherwise show them this boys.

Should put an end to the argument and for those of you who are shall we say of a mature age i think you will enjoy the men v women game it is on point!

So come on girls lets enjoy our sports and marvel at our achievments but please do not ever think we can physically compete with men because we cannot.

Emerson really? my Chelski mates are wetting themselves over us willing to pay money for this player.....they say to call him bang average would be bigging him up...then this Hans Vanaken guy from Club Brugge nope never heard of him took two secinds to work out why Moyes wants this player yup he's 6ft 4 tall so theres another one for the set piece.....he does love the big guys our manager....so players not on our radar never mentioned or rumoured and suddenly they appear funny that.

We live it every weekend same lineup same tactics same predictable substitutions lack of effort players look stale and not fit what the hell has happened to get to this?

Moyes says we are not quite fit not ready well Mate thats your job to make sure they are you and your coaches have had the summer yet we look way off the pace why?

Our players look uninspired and dejected and and i think all they see is a long drawn out slog by the same few players again week in week out.

Recruitments a joke.....if i dont think a player will improve the squad then i wont buy....Great thinking Moyes whats the betting in the next week the panic buttons hit and suddenly players you dont reckon or rate start turning up.

No balls no tactical no how to change how we play in game or out of....get a big man get a set piece and fingers crossed we may get a goal...no flair no flowing football the same sideways passing then back to the keeper for the love of God Moyes change something.

I dont really care about Viborg on thursday i really dont...Moyes may be brave against the minnows and say look i can get the team to play expansive football pffff.

Brighton home on sunday our nemesis who here thinks we will attack from the start and put them under pressure? anyone? mmm? HELLO anyone? naaa i thought not we all know Moyes will be cacking his panties and tell the players sit deep and counter SLOWLY because we have no pace....and oh yeah Scamacca and Cornet if not injured will be on the bench because they played in Europe on Thursday.

This post like the heading is groundhog day...i see it you fellow orgers see it why the hell can Moyes not see it.... said it in the summer and nothing will convince me otherwise but we will be bottom half of table all season and that rests on one mans shoulders and you no what he doesn't seem that bothered.

So two games into the season and VAR has proven once again it doesn't work. So only 36 games and 9 months of sh1t to go through!!
Putting aside the hair pull at the Bridge when in reality hair like that should be outlawed, and the Chelski planks calling for Anthony Taylor to be shipped off to Russia, Robert Jones proved he's a complete moron. Doesn't give a foul despite having a great view, the VAR at Stockley Park (is this on the moon), suggests he reconsider's. Now I'm all for taking a closer look but how bloody obvious is it that the foul should have been on Antonio for obstruction and not resulted in a goal being ruled out because the defender thought it was WWE and didn't realise that getting mown down by Antonio must be like being shoulder charged by The Rock!! I'm over it already. Wake me up in May so I can enjoy a the summer transfer window again!
