Re: Differences between Leicester and West Ham.

Goal difference is pretty massive at the moment. In fact we are worlds apart at the moment despite there only being 7 points between us. I have not seen enough of Leicester's games to really make informed comment, only highlights, but we at the moment are poor. Poor all over the pitch. At this time ...

Re: Strange places you have seen a west ham fan ?

In June we went on holiday to Florida, we were in Disney Worlds Animal Kingdom, they have this ride which is like a fake safari where you get on a truck and they drive you round to look at animals etc. A little spanish looking fella got on the ride in front of me with his girlfriend, arms covered in...

Re: Have we been poor all season?

Am I wrong though? Are the players just poor? Or are they under-performing and capable of a lot more as I think? Our best player so far this season is an injured goalkeeper who hasn't played for a month. For me its all eyes on Pellegrini to see what he can pull out of the bag in terms of both result...

Have we been poor all season?

Prior to the Crystal Palace game spirits were high, talk of us moving into the top 3 after sweeping aside these minnows, we had just beaten Man United and despite them being a much diminished force they are still a big club and we beat them without breaking sweat. We then went on to get what a lot o...

Re: Snodgrass HAS TO start the next game

The fact that we had to rely on a 32 year old player that we hoped would be there in case of emergencies to inject any kind of energy into this side is very worrying. I will always like Mark Noble but its time we found someone for him to pass the torch to. I never advocated Snodgrass starting and he...

Re: West Ham vs Sheff Utd Officlal Match Thread

Very, very poor again, if we cannot beat Sheffield United at home we have big problems. So disappointing again. So much wrong with this side and really cannot see us turning the corner. The manager is on a very large wage so will surely remain in his post. I think we need some fresh ideas here, unli...

Re: West Ham vs Sheff Utd Officlal Match Thread

Their defensive record so far this season is excellent, but they have yet to face us. Our manager will have done his homework, identified their weaknesses, selected the personnel and a system to break them down, their defensive record is about to be smashed.

Maybe I'll take that lie down.

Re: West Ham vs Sheff Utd Officlal Match Thread

I honestly cannot predict Pellegrini's lineup for this one. After the pasting we took on the opening day of the season against City he made changes for the Brighton game and we were arguably worse in that game despite snatching an undeserved draw. I hope he does not throw the baby out with the bathw...

Re: Snodgrass HAS TO start the next game

We have our problems in midfield at the moment but I’m fairly sure Snodgrass is not the answer. I am on of the many people calling for more bite in the midfield but Snodgrass is just too slow, I do think he has a good chance of starting next game as Pellegrini tends to ring the changes after a defea...

Re: We Are Not Just Getting Beat...

I said in the Everton Match Thread,I think our technical players are weak and are not physically up to the PL.We are like a poor man's Arsenal under Wenger in his last few years.We just get bullied by the opposition. We need players that can be technically good,but who can stand up to the tough side...
