giroud

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Sun, 18/06/2017 - 20:04

if we are as serious as the reports then we should get the deal done. weve been asking for a quality striker and imo giroud is one. 19 goals last season despite being the stand in for sanchez. would be a great signing imo.

Reports thst this is a done deal. Some bookies suspended betting on us signing him. If true this would be a great signing and we can ship out snodgrass

Complete List Of West Ham United Fixtures For 2017/18

West Ham's 2017-18 Premier League fixtures are out, with Slaven Bilic seeking a better start to the season than last time around.

That may be difficult with a trip to Manchester United up first, but the Hammers then face a run - Southampton, Newcastle, Huddersfield and West Brom - during which Bilic will be expected, and required, to pick up points.

The east Londoners will need to get points on the board before a tough December, with games against Man City, Chelsea and Arsenal in a row before the Christmas rush.

The Hammers appeared to be heading for a relegation battle after enduring tough results early on in the 2016/17 campaign, but Bilic steadied the ship despite losing star player Dimitri Payet to Marseille in January.

Bilic retains the faith of the board - for now - after teething problems following the move to the London Stadium, but the former Hammers midfielder will have nowhere to turn if the east London club make another difficult start.

liverpool offload

liverpool are looking to offload a number of players and one in particular a certain Lazar Markovic who was on loan at hull last season and he was outstanding in a team that struggled badly..his first touch and technique is something we currently do not have up front so forget bats from chavski this man would prove cheaper and an all round upgrade on what we have...i say cheaper because we know how our owners love a deal! the money saved could maybe attract siggurdson now everton have just splashed out on ajax captain...got to be quick now as the market starting to warm up and with the season starting early this year best get players in and settled within the squad when preseason training starts

Henry Onyekuru i am sure you have all seen the reports and rumours and how we could get him for £7million but guess what the goalposts have moved and it appears to clubs outside of Belgium its £9million still not a lot in prem league terms but when you also find out he may fail to gain a work permit i have to ask would the money not be better spent nearer home...yes you all know the player i like and £9million would get him easy and wages like Antonio started with of £35grand will be perfect for us....the championship easily equals the belgian league IMO so why not take a risk here than overseas on a player where the transfer issue changes daily it seems.....

Coaching Team

Submitted by Betty Swollox on Tue, 13/06/2017 - 14:41

Just to give an opportunity to break from the monotony of the striker theme, what do people thinking about our coaching staff? I sit very close to the bench on match days and Chris Woods and especially Julian Dicks don't say or do anything. Now maybe they do a lot more at training but I get the feeling not. I feel that Dicks especially is totally token gesture. That's fine if you're successful, but he's taking the place of someone who might add something. Jurcevic is basically to Slav what Phil Neal was to Graham Taylor. Then we've got a 35 year-old first team coach who played a bit of lower league. Where's the debate? Where's the other opinion coming from? Surrounding yourself with a load of yes men is great if it all goes well, look at Conte and Mourinho but not if you're struggling

sorry DITM but its a big fat no from me

Joe hart to be thrown a lifeline by west ham mmmm he is a very average keeper IMO always said it and yesterday against scotland did not prove me wrong....i no you like him dicksy and think he could offer something to the team but i just see errors and mistakes from him..yes he will pull off some mind blowing saves but he as i have mentioned just makes to many mistakes for me....also we are now linked with giroud again mmmm unless we managed to offload carroll why would we buy giroud? who lets face it suffers more than his fair share of injuries...oh all the fun of the rumour mill makes for some fun in the long weeks ahead and on wed morning when the fixtures are released we will see just how good/bad it will be for us with 3 away games on the bounce? watford/chelski/leicester? be a nice 3 as we will need to get a few points on the board before the first home game but knowing our luck it will be citeh/arsenal/manure!

And so it begins. I'm a few hours time a lady drawn by Quentin Blake will be confirmed overlord for the foreseeable. Lots of posturing and sound bites. Much like many of us have seen before. But little will change (although you think it might).
What of the new world. I'm afraid, L&G's, your entering my world. It's a scary landscape let me tell you. As someone who has struggled with addiction for many years, it's a painful tale of highs (few) and lows (lots).
Drugs make it Impossible to work out reality from fantasy. Even without using, I'm now experiencing this! Oh irony you teasing bedfellow.
Trump. Wow. They managed it there.
People being blown up in pop concerts, driven off bridges, stabbed in markets and restaurants. Apparently this is reality. Give me the drugs!
Well, those of us that continue to pull up our socks have to find a path. Our fear it's one with much uncertainty.
How to counter? Obviously the cowardly way is drugs or drug or whatever the poison that allows you to escape ownership, drift and remind yourself of a eutopia that never really existed....or did it?
I'm fearful of the terrorists we've helped breed and dragged from stones, I'm fearful of the extreme intolerant right who know only one way to counter. I'm fearful of the internet that has created 65m soapboxes, all of whom are right. I'm fearful of the speed of vitriol that can be spewed upon people in seconds. I'm fearful of how many people walk along with the eyes glued to a plastic box in their hand.
But hey, chin up. We've signed a decent right back.
And remember. This isn't reality. Its all a dream.
I'm the king and your all inserting flumps in my
Anus whilst I fellate Katie Hopkins. Too far? We haven't even begun L&G....

Biggest Gambles, Biggest Gains

Submitted by asheshammer on Wed, 07/06/2017 - 23:56

I'm on record as saying the Hammers should spend big to get Iheanacho and/or Batsuayi this Summer. But such a move would cost them. Meanwhile you see reports of the sort that say, West Ham should sign "Goal-Scoring Beast" Steve Mounie from Montpelier for £13M, instead of Batsuayi. That's small change in the current market, in which a defender like Southampton's Virgil Van Dijk is valued at £50M. But interestingly, Van Dijk himself was signed for £13M. And looking back over a host of players who now command ginormous transfer fees, it seems clear that the best VALUE to be had in the transfer market is in the £10M-£20M range. Of course these transfers are generally a bigger gamble than paying out big on a proven commodity, but when they work out, it is the best value for a club. This makes me understand better the temptation that SUGO have to look for bargain deals, but is it worth the gamble?
