Ahead of the game against Brighton one optimist at the Org commented on being reminded that the last time Hammers had won there was 12 GAMES AGO, a Ricardo Vaz Te hat trick and three other goals contributed to a chastening 6-0 loss for the home side when both teams were in the Championship.

Brighton: Verbruggen, Webster, Dunk, Estupinan, Milner, Gilmour, Gross, Welbeck, March, Mitoma, Ferguson
Subs: Steele, Julio, Dahoud, Joao Pedro, Lallana, Adingra, Van Hecke, Veltman, Buonanotte

West Ham: Areola, Coufal, Zouma, Ogbonna, Emerson, Ward-Prowse, Alvarez, Soucek, Paqueta, Bowen, Antonio
Subs: Fabianski, Johnson, Cresswell, Fornals, Cornet, Ings, Benrahma, Kehrer, Mubama

While most of the attention surrounding West Ham is on the much needed arrival of players since the departure of talisman Declan Rice, there is a growing acknowledgement that a 'train' of players may well depart ahead of the closing of the transfer window next week.

With only SEVEN DAYS to go Hammers recruitment drive is in full swing with D.O.F Tim Steiedten racking up his 'avios' in the private jet he currently uses to bring new signings on board. Fresh on the heels of James Ward-Prowse, Edson Alvarez and Konstantinos Mavropanos appears to be Mohammed Kudos.
