West Ham Online

May as well get going with this since with Sullivan at the helm, season ticket renewals slow, and the football vacuum to commence, this will soon be all the "news" there is.

Can Potter and MacCauley pull multiple rabbits out of the hat, or will Sullivan 'try really hard' with all of them before grabbing a few aging bargains from Big Willie Salthouse?

Window this close season comes in two parts:

Part 1: 1st June to 10th June
Part 2: 16th June to 1st September

Seriously tho, worse than I thought. Sullivan trouserinv the Aguerd money and no one coming in is what will happen.  He trousered £17 million from Kudus deal and now Aguerd fee. Does it every window. Spends some but is always thinking about getting cash in longer term. Trouble is none of us can see the books and how the amortisation works. But Sullivan and board only ever put in an initial stake to buy shares and then spend the club money in a ponzi scheme by borrowing against future revenues, even payments of future fees, Tv revenues, ticket revenues, mortgaging all fixed assets and now selling stakes in the womens team.  Lots of clubs do it I guess but West Ham owners never invest either.  Only thing they do is gove loabs to the club and earn money in interest back. 

In short, we need a CB, another centre mid and striker to have a strong squad. We are 2 ir 3 injuries away from “bare bones”. The “Sullivan Effect”.  

“No more BS” !!

West Ham United sign French youngster Dimitri Colau



West Ham United is pleased to announce that young French defender Dimitri Colau has joined the Club’s Academy U21 development squad from newly promoted Ligue 1 club Paris FC.

The 19-year-old arrives at the Hammers on a four-year contract with an option to extend for a further year.

Colau links up with former Paris FC Academy teammate Mohamadou Kanté in the Irons' development squad. Kanté joined from the Parisian side in August 2024 before spending last season back on loan at Paris FC, who were promoted as runners-up to Lorient in May this year, and the defender is looking forward to joining his old friend in London.

“Mo and I have been teammates throughout our time with the Paris FC Academy,” Colau confirmed. “He spoke to me about the Club before I arrived. He spoke very highly of how he’d been welcomed in, the facilities and that the sessions have been really good, of really high quality.

I’m really excited to be here and can’t wait to get started.”Born in the 19th arrondissement of Paris, north east of the centre of the French capital, Colau captained the Paris FC U19s in the National U19s French league, before being promoted to the first team during the 2023/24 season.

He balanced youth-team duties with senior involvement, making his professional debut in a 3-0 Ligue 2 win over Concarneau and going on to record five first-team appearances across league and cup.Last season however, as Paris FC secured promotion back to Ligue 1 for the first time since 1978, his progress was put on hold in a stop-start campaign disrupted by injury.

He explained: “I was delighted to make my debut during the 2023/24 campaign, but last season was a bit complicated with injuries. I started the season with the pros, but I alternated between injuries and being back on the pitch, so mid-season I decided to have surgery. I’m back now and raring to go.”

 

Apparently so. Can’t be both him and the Brighton bloke?

Maybe Potter going for 4 cbs and 4 cms.

Igor may have been persuaded by Brighton fans that going to Palace isn’t acceptable 

Igor was the hunchback in Young Frankenstein. A perfect West Ham signing.

Surely Igor will be persuaded to sign for palace. We can't have Liverpool not getting their own way here. After all they've been through.

Surely Palace pull the plug on the Guehi sale of they can't get in a replacement at all. They'd be within their rights whilst it's up in the air still. Be daft to sanction that if they have zero replacement. Funny though.

Guehi to Liverpool still going to happen even if Igor doesnt go to Palace bbc saying 
Palace looking for a centre half in a bit over an hour
Malky Mackay maybe?

Looks like we’ve gone for the short term option. A bit underwhelming but probably still a better option than nothing at all.

He’s the lump who jogged alongside Bowen and watched him score the winner in Prague instead of scything him down, right? I think we should sign him and pay him handsomely just to say thank you.

If he can defend reasonably well, head the ball, and has the physique to be able to deal with a slight nudge, then he's a massive upgrade on the 3 centre backs that started the first 2 games.

The only squad this Igor fella was part of was the cup game where it looks like he played left back. Dont know if he's not been involved  because of a possible transfer or because he is shit.

Why have we gazumped Palace for a bog standard centre back? I guess Brighton would just about rather deal with us than Palace but it's a bit weird. Where's the fucking striker then?

Emerson confirmed out.

Clint went missing as soon as everything started happening that he 'told' us would not.
