Diangana

Submitted by Burkie 1 on

Ryan Fredericks, Lucas Perez and Robert Snodgrass all notched their first West Ham goals but the biggest winner in West Ham’s 8-0 mauling of Macclesfield was Grady Diangana.

Making his first-team debut, the 20-year-old attacking midfielder netted the seventh and eighth goals, seizing the opportunity given to him by Manuel Pellegrini. Diangana is the first beneficiary of Pellegrini’s decision to bring the club’s Under-23s and first team together at the same base, which seems like common sense, but apparently revolutionary thinking for the Hammers.

Wots the team for Macclesfield??

Like to see Adriane in goal and use him the way we used Randolph otherwise I can see Adriane getting the hump and leaving in January. Think he will rest Zabba and give Fredricks a bit of playing time not to sure about Lucas Perez looked a bit lightweight against Chelsea. With all the Lower leauge matches I'm always worried that a player like Anderson could get injured and be out for the rest of the season they don't back out on the 50-50 balls. Disapointed that Silva has done his Hamstring and is out for 4 weeks I would Have liked to see him play after his hat trick against Spurs. Don't think there will be any banana skins their bottom of division 2, but you never Know We are WHU get 4 points against Everton and Chelsea and lose against Macclesfield.

Pellegrini flying back to Chile

Submitted by cast iron on

Pellegrini is flying back to chile for the International break and has given the players a few days off Taking The piss or wot. I would have thought he would have used the time to work on their defence and to keep them fit they look a bit sluggish now, wonder how their gonna be after a few days off

Phillipe Anderson Attacking midfield

Submitted by cast iron on

I am wondering if Anderson might be better as an attacking midfield player, he seemed absolutely lost out on the wing on Saturday run up and down the line and would not cut in and get in the box he has played in midfield before and he certainly didn't look comfortable out on the left wing. A few of us are saying that we have are slow in the midfield if he went attacking midfield he might be a Lanzini type player as he has very quick feet and certainly doesn't lack pace.

50 greatest Hammers

Submitted by Red Neck Iron on

The official site has been running a series of the 50 greatest hammers. They included little video clips of interviews and the odd bit of play. Anyone been following it? Anyway the top man was obviously the man himself with a good little video. I was quite shocked sir trev wasn't second but only third. Billy bonds coming up second another good video. A critisism for the club would be although it was a decent idea why was there only just one or 2 clips of these players in the vid. There must be loads about! Very disappointing. Billy bonds was saying how he only used shin pads against Leeds. I remember at school playing without shin pads socks rolled down. The shirts were so thick when it rained the absorbed all the water, along with the heavier boots and half the school fields mud on your legs you weighed twice as much as when you started. Having to literally peel thick layers of mud off you when you got in. Pah footballers today don't even get mud on them.

In Pellegrini we trust

Submitted by cast iron on

I think all our business is done what Manny wants Sanchez for God only knows perhaps he sees him as a poor mans Yaya Toure and on reflection, I wish we got him instead, we will just have to see what he sees in Carlos that nearly every other west ham fan cant
But on the whole, I think that this is the best transfer window ever and I am getting really excited with the start of this season we now have a proper squad and I don't think you will see the same old squad every week e will be unpredictable, and I also think he will change our formation from game to game we are going to be a difficult team to 2nd guess what formation we are going, who are we going to play, and we have so many options a group of talented players with lots of different skills. What we've got to be careful of is expecting to much, think it is going to take us 1or 2 months for the players to get used to playing with one another and getting used to Playing in the premiership but We have a master technician in Pellegrini and probably the best signing of the summer because without him I don't think we would have attracted so many talented players. So COYI and lets look forward to some good attacking football this season
