Do you honestly think that it is simply a case of spending more on better known players? We're not an attractive proposition for really good players (no European football, wage limits) so we'd always be looking at players who wouldn't quite be good enough to play for the big teams - if we want someone who is proven. Looking for undiscovered gems or young players with potential is the right approach in my mind, but imo for every gem we will have to put up with some players who simply aren't good enough.

I can't wait. Fingers double crossed now! Sent from my Lenovo TB-X304F using Tapatalk

It's almost like we have a manager who understands players strengths within his system and plays to them. Fancy that... A long departure from Hughes picking his 11 favourite players Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

Have you seen Cardiff's squad? Ours might be poor but it is no where near that bad! What I can't believe it's that Cardiff are above us... Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

I'm not convinced the problem is a lack of money for buying players. I think we need to move players on to create space and free up wages for new signings. Only an idiot would bloat an already massive squad and wage bill with more players and wages before dealing with the underlying problem. Carrying on is putting us on a fast track to bankruptcy (also known as the Harry redknapp school of management). Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

We really do have some utter plebs as fans. I wonder if these are the same fans that l only ove players who run around a lot and kiss the badge Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

OUT: Austin, Long, Hoedt, Forster, Gabbi, Davis, Carillo IN: Centre Back, Creative midfield player, Striker BRING BACK (if possible): Boufal, Sims, Reed

Not my point. He wouldn't get near their bench now (nor would anyone at his level) let alone start a match. Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

I'll try and be objective: Positives: very quick Good at pressing (when he can be bothered) Makes a nuisance of himself particularly against tiring defenders Half decent in the air Negatives: Inability to time his runs meaning he is continually off side (This season) Spends too much of the game jogging about aimlessly getting his breath back from the last sprint Woeful touch Dreadful shooting Poor passer My problem with him is that he seems to lack too many of the basic attributes of a footballer which at premier League level just isn't good enough Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

You do realise how much football has moved on in the last 3 years don't you? E.g 3 years ago ihanacho started for city... The gulf between the top 6 and the rest has never been wider. Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

Or you could argue that wh demonstrated what a good attaching player can when other players run well off the ball and create space for them Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

Beaten by a better side and two poor refereeing decisions. Clear pen and once again Carroll gets away with gbh We've got to get better players into the side than targett, long and Austin. Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

Long is a turd. No excuse for being continually offside Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

Does anyone who isn't a West ham supporter actually like them? They're a thoroughly hateable club run, supported and represented by utter bell ends. Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

There is logic: Austin has a dreadful injury record and can't sustain the levels of fitness for a pressing game Gabbi doesn't suit a pressing game as he likes to drift in and out of games Long is a fast runner and sits the defensive side of a pressing game but has nothing else to offer We desperately need someone who suits a pressing game and none of the above do I'm not sure why you've brought pelle into this? I was one of his biggest fans especially as our tactics then required a target man. Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

Id sell both and long and bring in someone better. Timo Werner maybe..... In my dreams maybe Sent from my Lenovo TB-X304F using Tapatalk

I wouldn't... McCarthy Yoshida vestergard bednarek Valery. Romeu Targett Hojbjerg/lemina Redmond ings Armstrong Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

Who says these players aren't good enough??? Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

Because a good number of our fans don't really understand how football works... Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

Nosmas? Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

Totally agree with this. As soon as he grew his hair he went completely toilet. Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

I can't fit the life of me work out why we aren't above West ham. Maybe we don't have enough dildos in the board room? Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

Couldn't agree more. He is stealing a living as a professional athlete. I couldn't believe he ran around for 20 minutes and then was knackered. How he had the balls to give Valery a ticking off at half time is beyond me when he'd barely done anything for 25 mins. Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

My starting XI: McCarthy Soares bednarek Stephens Bertrand Romeu hojberg lemina Armstrong Redmond Obafemi Obviously depends on obafemi being fit. Otherwise start with Gabbi on the basis that Austin can't run for more than 20 mins as evidenced by yesterday's performance. Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk

Charlie Austin seems to be worn out already. Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk
