He’s almost as stubborn as that idiot at Man Utd. No way will he start with a back 4, I’d guess

Enjoy these threads when they pop up.  I’ve gone regularly since the 1990/91 season when I was 8. For me, Theirry Henry at his peak is the best I’ve ever seen. Cristiano Ronaldo was also obviously very special towards the end of his time at Man Utd. But Henry as an all round player is the best playe...

Potters tactics have been all wrong since he arrived, they don’t work with this squad and they don’t get the most out of our best player - Bowen. The rare times we broke away, Paq would look up only to see empty space on the wings because Diouf & AWB were too deep.  Soucek hasn’t touched the bal...

It's an interesting viewpoint really in terms of it being a Premier League problem, would be strange to think of tourists in the BML or Chav Corner

Then maybe find a Spurs forum that is of more interest to you instead of clogging up a West Ham board you cսnt. 

What Sullivan’s done to us is a travesty, as bad as what Pete Winkelman did with MK Dons and Wimbledon, only sneakier and more underhanded. My dad started going to games in the mid-60s, home and away, which was pretty rare back then by all accounts. I had a season ticket from the age of 7. My first ...

I’m not sure, I think the main issue may be positional, really. His best performances came on the left side of the front three - in that classic Moyes “position of doom,” where creative players who didn’t quite fit the system were often dumped. Back when Emerson was in better form and linking up wel...

i randomly heard an interview with the Bristol City chairman a while back, he said they signed Earthy for the first team as they didn't expect to have the opportunity to sign Scott Twine (who plays in the same position).

He is useless. Not Gary Breen useless, but Breen was a free and Kilman was £40m, yet they are comparable…. Imagine a club that sells Craig Dawson to someone for £3m and then signs his inferior partner for £40m. Sullivans tenure has reached bottom of barrel level. Beyond it perhaps. The constant swin...

I really enjoyed the game today, was a good watch and on another day we could have scored 4.  I struggle to give Potter credit though, I feel like his mistakes cost us the win rather than his decisions making us competitive.  - His subs were poor both in timing and application.  - Starting Scarles a...

Hi all, I'm looking to take my little boy to his first home game and this seems as good as any. My old man also wants to be there for it, so looking for 3 tickets if possible. Also just to be fussy, lower tier would be preferred if possible! Cheers

Negatives Thought we looked poor. Despite dominating possession, the team had no real attacking intent, just sterile passing, reminiscent of a struggling Spanish side. This was always the fear with Potter, and the reason Brighton fans weren’t devastated when he moved on. Kudus remains an enigma: un...

The one thing thats baffled me for years is why the youth teams have been playing a complete different system to the first team? Surely that's an admission that the style of football under Moyes isn't what we want kids to be learning. When I've watched the youth team they have always seems to play a...

Without having an official option on Ferguson, we’d pretty much be increasing the value of another young player while decreasing the value of our one that
we own. Bowen starts every game - we all agree that, then eventually it’ll come down to whether we start kudus or Ferguson 

Kudus is the issue with the 3-4-3, he’s also probably our most valuable player in terms of value, we could get £80m for him eventually. He’s also flawed.  Given him and Bowen play the same position, plus Guilherme who looked very good in his cameo last night, I’d be tempted to play Bowen up top with...

For what it’s worth I’d try something a bit crazy:

fab/areola

AWB Todibo Kilman 

Summerville Alvarez Soucek Kudus 

Bowen Ferguson Paqueta 


 

Out of interest, given potter plays 3-4-3 what would you all think is our best starting 11? 

As soon as they started making changes in the 50th, it was obvious either their manager was shitting himself and making crazy decisions in a panic or we were in big trouble as we had nothing on the bench to counter it.  I’m impressed with potter, he’s a step up on Moyes, just a shame we wasted money...

Not having an option would be insanity, surely there must be something written into the deal otherwise its totally pointless

Not that there's been much competition over the years, but he must surely be the best right back we've had in the prem era? 

No one who watches or attends can say we are getting these points because of Lopetegui. It's obvious half the team have very little interest in playing for him, and their value is depreciating because of it (Kudus). He will eventually go of course, nothing is working, we have good players and we are...

Not sure why people are getting annoyed? The right man won, it’s either 7-5 or 8-4, the difference is marginal. So many rounds were close and Usyk finished strong in the vast majority which always scored well.  Dave Allen was absolutely robbed against Johnny Fisher, Fury marginally lost a fair and c...

is anyone struggling with IPTV? Mine is buffering endlessly

Mate of mine got so pissed he went home early afternoon on a Friday, fenchurch to Stanford. Fell asleep, woke up shoeburyness, fell asleep again, woke up fenchurch, fell back asleep woke up shoeburyness again, nodded back off and eventually had to pay for taxi from Upminster to Stanford. Was fresh a...

it's bournemouth?
