now the new season has begun in earnest here is the new current season link
Sicknote suffers a setback that will see him out for 3months and Winston reid the same.god when will we see the back of the fragile one...all that running on grass and kicking a ball has once again put him on the treatment table....
I've just heard that Carroll and Reid are both out for a minimum of three months. This means they will have no resale value at least until Christmas. When are we ginger to catch a break
Pellegrini in as manager,good additions in fredericks,flappihandski & diop...just arrived wilshere,looks like yarmolenko is coming as well....possibly more on the horizon,great that we are getting deals done early & its all starting to look rosy...I am one of their biggest critics & still a long,long way to go before i warm to them,but personally i reckon fan power has persuaded sugo to start doing what they promised,they have big egos but are sensitive in that they want to be loved!!;)
Your thoughts on the board are they turning a corner at last??
Winterthur 3 west ham 2...what a disgrace hang our heads in shame thought a new era had arrived but same old west ham...Pel has to go he's tactically naïve and our defence has not improved one iota...get him out:-)
apparently he has signed for 17 mill from dortmund. to be honest, i haven't got a clue about this guy other than he's a winger from ukraine. the news snips i picked up are that he hasn't been good in germany but has been a good player before that move. pellegrini must hope to get the best out of him.
Well that's the rumour..apparently we have been offered back a player we sold to a team in the French league and on better terms than we sold so who else could that be and would you have him back? I no it could also be sako but Payet is the buzz.Any takers on here after what he did?
after reading this article you have to wonder
Well it would seem that goal at Leicester by noble has encouraged other players to try emulate and succeed in doing the noble volley,maybe not as catchy as "cruyff turn" but wowza they all clearly follow our world class midfielder so well done Mark for encouraging ordinary players to your level:-)
Plenty of rumours in the press in regards to Rice attracting Palace and Bournemouth’s attention which had died away but has come back due to the signing of Diop. It’s an easy one for the media to make something out of nothing with Rice not yet signing a new deal and Diop seemingly ahead due to the cost of his signing. My thoughts are more around Rice being our first choice defensive midfielder or possibly the pair of them becoming a partnership. Pel plays a fast paced game and being able to play the ball from the back is another aspect of his teams. My immediate thoughts are Reid and Ogbona should be feeling the pressure. More soReid but if Rice goes into midfield Kouyate and Noble could be competing for their place. Niether are really defensive midfielders and it’s a position we’ve not had for a while. Noble makes the passes and covers the pitch but too slowly for a Pel type of team. Kouyate should be box to box but lacks ball control. Who do you think is in trouble at keeping their place in the team? With more signings to come there is probably more than one answer.
