"Just the small matter of convincing him that were a better bet than Leverkusen. And his own club, where he also has Champions League football on offer."

BillyJenningsBoots 7:29 Sat May 18 Seems fitting if Brighton don't appoint him that they call out their stupidity for not doing so. I'm sure such a highly regarded manager will be snapped up instantly.

"""To sign 25 goal Kane and not do the usual thing like win trophies isn't a good recommendation."" Think it's Kane that's the problem. Bloke seems to be allergic to trophies."

"lowlife 1:57 Sun Feb 18 Sees us as little old West Ham, thinks were at our level in terms of how high we can go and that were extremely ungrateful as a fanbase. Cannot understand why we do not know our place and as he said tonight, genuinely believes he's given us the best time in the club's histor...

"nychammer 9:26 Sat Feb 17 It's a strange one, but I don't think Sullivan wants to go against the grain - even if he doesn't back the manager privately. And he clearly doesn't otherwise he would have given him a new contract after winning the trophy. Or after we were 6th at Christmas. Just listen to...

He won't get sacked. Were not getting relegated so the contract will be allowed to run down. It's Fat Sam's last season all over again.

"Without even seeing it, I can tell how the post match presser will go. Moyes will reel off the accomplishments and be very spikey at the slightest hint of any criticism. Same after every defeat. Talksport and the rest of the football pundits will trot out the usual, ""Be careful what you wish for""...

Callum Wilson would be this year's Danny Ings. Let's not make that mistake again.

He's crap. Probably end up working in Footlocker.

"Paqueta injured, Bowen injured, Greek fella injured and worst possible result of all...a fucking replay. Mubama is crap, daft if he doesn't sign the contract offered to him. Will end up being a League 1 or 2 journeyman at best otherwise."

Bilic first game as manager also. Don't remember parking the bus in that one. Reece Oxford having Ozil in his pocket and all that.

The only exception was the Sol Campbell game. But that's probably because of the aforementioned having an absolute stinker which helped us to a couple of our goals.

"Colchester and Swindon, both at the arse end of League 2, apparently want Marshall on loan."

"Hello Mrs. Jones 12:35 Fri Dec 29 Which made it even more odd that Benrahma didn't just pass it to the other corner. Shame, would have loved a Declan Rice assist to top everything off."

"Stewards just seemed to stand there as well (of the small number that were there), didn't seem to have a clue how to help people. You'd think those allocated to work at the turnstile would have been provided with a bit of guidance on the issue."

"Mine never updates anymore. It didn't update after the Newcastle game, then it updated to Forest AFTER the game had happened and it's been stuck on that fixture since. Tried the usual fixes like turning the phone off and on again, wiping knob across the screen etc. but nothing seems to make a diffe...

"swindon hammer 1:30 Thu Dec 21 As well as Saudi money, I would not be shocked if some of the Saudi sides are shoehorned into it as well, so the likes of Ronaldo, Neymar and erm...Jordan Henderson can be showcased as part of the new ESL."

He can move on to bigger things now like Britain's Next Top Model.

"Convenient these sick bugs that keep popping up prior to a thumping. Other teams don't seem to have this poor fortune, must just be something going round Chadwell heath. Moyes constantly bemoans the schedule and particularly Thurs-Sun football. Villa don't seem to have struggled with it too much th...

"You hear things like: ""West Ham have never had it so good"" ""7th in the league and playing in Europe"" ""3 years in a row in Europe"" He actually concluded all that by saying, ""I don't think it gets any better than that for West Ham."" In other words know your place, be grateful and stop moaning...

He's thrown the towel in before the game's even started with that line up. If they score early it will be a fucking long night. You'd think he wouldn't want another tonking this soon after the Fulham game.

Awful selection. Shame I was really hoping we'd have a go at this one. The state of that back four you'd not be shocked to see Nunez and Gakpo both get hat-tricks.

"They'd probably have that DJ who gets wheeled out before evening games dancing along to 'West Ham are Massive' whenever we score. Whichever musical number we went with, it would be a massive CRINGE. Let's not lower ourselves."

"Hoping we go full strength for this. This will be lowest on the list of priorities for Liverpool and they'll be far more concerned about the game with Arsenal Saturday. Can't see the likes of Salah, Alexander-Arnold etc. playing in this one. If we could somehow get past this lot, we would have a ve...
