Hammers in czech media
|
West Ham is filling the pages of czech newspapers since Soucek and Coufal joined us. Every match is thoroughly reported and even analyzed...rumours are circulating. Fresh tittle-tattle says we are in for Alex Kral, ex-Slavia player, with Spartak Moscow nowadays. It’s both good and bad news, the guy’s really good and still young player, the bad side of the story is that he plays in Decs position. I wonder if Soucek wasn’t hired for new invented player-scout job.

We can always do with good players especially if they are like COUFAL & SOUCEK If RICE or SOUCEK are missing we look a bit feeble so definitely need more cover with NOBLE & SNODGRASS winding down

If Soucek says he's ok then that's good enough for me. I'm pretty sure he's also telling Moyes how to manage a football team too.

There's an excellent midfield player called Lewis Ferguson at Aberdeen. He won Scotland's young player of the year in May this year. He's only 20 and is going to be a top footballer in my opinion. David Moyes will know all about him. If we want a bargain,we should get him before his value soars.
Marco Marosi, Coventry city goalie really looked the part against Birmingham last night. He's a Slovak though,not Czech!

Yes blueeyed, why don’t people acknowledge we will keep Rice all part of the next level plan.

It’s not enough just to have rice anyway, if he is a utility player that can do two positions then that’s what we need.

lab 12:32 Could have been Macavennie who seems to know most of the best Scottish players. I notice Steve Gerrard is interested in signing Lewis Ferguson for Glasgow Rangers maybe in the next window. Ferguson was released by Rangers at the age of 14, and made his name at Hamilton Accies before Aberdeen signed him a couple of years ago. His uncle Barry played for Blackpool against West Ham in the 2012 Play off final,and his father played for Rangers way back. Lewis is a Rangers fan but I think he wants to come down to England where the money is so much better. I've seen him develop greatly in the last couple of years and am positive he would be an ideal replacement for Mark Noble.

After the Czechs golden generation of very decent players in the 90's they have had a fallow period...turns out they were brewing a new batch. Hungary are also starting to churn out some useful players. Maybe we need some more scouts in that part of the world...

Wonder if we will see West Ham branded vodka and shot glasses in the gift shop?
If we get anymore of these Eastern Europeans I may well start blending in Vodka chasers with me pint of Guinness or ale. :-)
The "Vodka Boys" Coufal and Soucek are turning out to be real bargains in today's market. Also we are known as a Easter European friendly club with a few of vodka drinkers down the years. Ludo and "Mad Tommy" come to mind.
Is Repka still in clink btw?

The Alex Kral story seems to have some legs as the russians are going trough it as well. https://twitter.com/arturpetrosyan/status/1330511027784572939?s= I don't want DR to leave, far from that...but if he is leaving for Chealski in the summer, it would be nice to to see us learn from past mistakes a think ahead.

Probably get more coverage over there than over here.
Our match report was about 10th story down on sunday night on the BBC, after at least 2-3 separate Liverpool stories, all the other match reports and some other sports.

It is possible to play with 3 defensive midfielders especially if all three are athletic and capable of breaking forward and scoring a goal leaving the other 2 behind covering.
If this Kral is half decent which by all accounts he is then a 4-3-3 is more of an option.
Kral-Rice-Soucek
Sounds like a promising brew

Czech Rep is better known for Pilsner, isn't it? Wouldn't mind a few bottles of West Ham Czech Pils.

In Soucek we trust.
We need some fresh legs in centre midfield anyway, Noble and Snodgrass are at the end of their careers in the top flight.
