It's pretty obvious who this is and I just wonder if he was drinking sensibly and thinking about how the body mends itself by using the food and drink he consumes to change into protiens, fatty acids etc, to create flexible tendons around that injured knee of his rather than McDonalds junk food, take away's and copious amounts of beer that ensures he will create fragile calcium around his knee instead and suffer yet another injury as soon as he makes his eventual return around Christmas (as I still predict) ?

I first want to state this post was not my original thought but comes from comments on a news now post regarding Alex Songs successful surgery on his ankle. Apparently a floating bone was causing problems since Christmas. This might explain the drop in form. Comments included ' sign him now, and get the pre Christmas Song back on our team'. Thought I would bring this topic to our forum for more intelligent thoughts and comments. I tend to agree if this is a routine surgery with a high success rate, don't hang around, get him signed. He has made all the right moves to demonstrate that he wants West Ham.

Now I know the performance was poor yesterday especially the penetration and attacking play as Bilic stated in his post-match interview,but he doesn't deserve this negativity,for crying out loud he has only been in the job five minutes.He will come good ,all the teams he has managed have his trademark stamped on them,attacking play and goals ,he will get it right.I think fans in the main,expected a similar team selection to what Bilic put out, and he probably felt, as we all did, that there was enough quality in that side to finish the opposition off.But how wrong we were.He isn't going to make that mistake again especially with better opposition ahead.Bilic is still assessing the players ,especially the forwards to see whether they have what it takes to unlock packed defences,I'm not convinced ,I don't think he is either,but we will have to wait and see on that one.But I think the likes of Valencia,Sakho,Carroll,are your definites ,one more quality signing and a quality loan would put our minds at rest.The crossing yesterday was another area that was concerning,it was just hit and hope,no body was targeted,so many crosses wasted.Jarvis and Amalfitano,have quality there is no doubt but ,neither are floating my boat at the moment,but doesn't help matters playing in a side with less quality then they are used to.I'm sure even Payet's performance level would have suffered in that game.Hernandez,Mirallas,Halilvic,Milan Badelj ,Moussa Sow of Fenerbache, but the African Cup of Nations, January time, may be a big turn off signing more African players
