West Ham fans suffered a miserable defeat in a blistering cold 15:00 kick-off against Crystal Palace.

Individual mistakes, comical errors and incorrect tactics all resulted in us not even having a shot on target, all in all, woeful performance and match.

If Hammers fans look past the dreadful result itself, some questions need to be raised, that performance should’ve screamed to the board that signings need to be made, and not having a shot on target exclaims that.

West Ham: Fabianski, Wan-Bissaka, Mavropanos, Kilman, Cresswell, Emerson, Alvarez, Rodriguez, Soucek, Kudus, Paqueta
Subs: Areola, Soler, Coufal, Guilherme, Ings, Irving, Casey, Scarles, Orford.

Crystal Palace: Henderson, Guehi, Lacroix, Richards, Mitchell, Kamada, Hughes, Munoz; Eze, Sarr, Mateta
Subs: Turner, Nketiah, Schlupp, Clyne, Doucoure, Riad, Rodney, Devenny, Kporha.

It’s not a hidden secret amongst Hammers fans that our striker curse has yet to be solved. Many strikers have come through that have either been simply shocking or injury-prone.

Unfortunately, it appears Sully wants to add to that list. With the latest report being that West Ham United are ‘seriously interested’ in RB Leipzig striker Andre Silva.

The twenty-nine-year-old Portuguese international has currently struggled to find form in recent years. This season Silva has 1 goal and 3 assists in 15 appearances and currently is struggling to find game time for Leipzig.
