Well 21 games in, fifth in the league, best current form, and unbeaten in eight games. Dare we mention the possibility of a Champions League place?
Let's look at the contenders. Arsenal to my mind seem to be best placed, with their injury list improving they look odds on to qualify and possibly win he Premiership. Man City, always look good on paper but have that element of self-destruction but a top four place is again odds on. Leicester, well what a turn up! They are playing like demented demons and just when you think they are shot they turn up with a win at Spuds! If their luck holds and they avoid injuries they are with us a possibility. Spuds, sorry dislike them intensely, know it's childish, so sod them. Man U and Pool, good squads but cannot gel. With new to the Prem players they can produce the goods but I think not.
It look's as if the last position is up for grabs, we have 17 games to go, the lack of strikers and the injury situation is concerning so we should be looking at the next stage. The fact that we are in the new stadium next season and the possibility of Champions League football would look enticing to new signings from any league in the world.

This is a great chance for us, other teams are sporadic in their performances, so this opportunity may not present itself again. The rich clubs will improve their squad, that's a definite, Chelsea will be back next year so the big four will all be there. Added to that will the Prem still get four places in the Cham League after piss poor performance of our top teams?

Please SuGo grab this chance, it will not appear again.

Just heard Leeds have accepted a £3 million bid from Everton, with possible £1 million in add-ons, and £12K a week wages! Come on chairmen, don't miss out on this boy please!! If Everton think Byram is better than Seamus Coleman you can see what a player this boy is. We've tracked him for so long we've probably alerted everyone else to him and now we let someone else gazump us.
He's the Championship player of the month for December, 21, born in Thurrock in Essex, and (rumour has it) a West Ham fan.
We know already with Cresswell and Antonio that these boys can make the jump.
Come on West Ham, get rid of Zarate, Lee, O'Brien if you have to. Only 12K a week. Surely that's possible. Make it happen!!!

Do the so called big clubs actually do that? I honestly think not look at citeh and there laughable attempts to find a decent centre half to go alongside kompany when fit...throw money at it make that a helluva lot of money so paying £30/35 million for a player he must be brilliant...errr no...look at the youth policy of these clubs as well its truly pointless..chelski the biggest culprits there why promote players when you simply go out and buy who you want ready made......clubs like ours though its different we don't have that kind of money to throw around but clearly we have people who no what we are looking for...obiang never noticed him before but bam he is a decent player much overlooked because of Payet now there is another who lets be honest we never really heard of but for£10million what a bargain...sakho another when he played at palace last season coming on as a sub like many I thought here we go maiga mark2 but no you suddenly noticed his movement his pace and clear skill in front of goal....Antonio of course is another ogbonna the juve defender he goes about his work calmly.....all these players clearly known about and scouted properly before the transfers made and now lanzini what a player....first real look at him against astra Giurgiu he scores but me and my west ham mates thought not bad but probably to lightweight for the prem....how wrong can you be...clearly someone somewhere had good knowledge about this player and he was worth the risk and like payet you cannot imagine a west ham side without him.....so now all the so called big clubs start sniffing around and who knows in the summer some daft money could be thrown about but if they invested that in proper scouting they may not have had to waste so much money.....
