whufc wrote:West Ham in big trouble and favs for drop imho

4 terrible pre season performances so far

None of the new signings getting a start with Big Fat Sam (bfs) continuing to gift games to his besties Nolan (biggest waste of space in world football at the moment), Vaz Te , Cole and O'Brien

It's now coming out Sam didn't want to sign Zarate and it was the owners who made the signing

And the most laughable is BFS has come out and is already claiming the players are struggling to adapt to the new style he is being forced to play. Lol we have played the same long ball rubbish all pre season so far with everyone second attacking movement being a Collins long ball straight down the line.

The sooner we get rid of BFS the better

But at least Nolan has played 90 minutes of every pre season game so far while our bloke who can actually go and get the ball, play a decent ball and not give away a foil everyone time they get within 15 metres of the ball get a good belly laugh from the bench watching this hazbeen!!!

If u want an absolute classic laugh go to the 'knees up mother brown' west ham forum

Did I hear Carroll out for up to 6 months aswell?
Was a rumour he was about to be sold to Newcastle but did his knee a couple of days later at training

It's Carroll's ankle that he's done. Speaking to one of the owners (David Gold) down here in NZ, he says four months.

I hate big Sam as much as anyone, but from watching the two games here and trainings, it's the players that deserve a rocket and fans a refund.

There has been absolutely zero effort from anyone, even Noble who's game is based on work rate didn't track back or push forward in any game.

Training was a joke compared to Newcastles, with half our team sitting down watching the others go about it.

The lads were here on holiday, nothing more. Which is a pretty dangerous thing to do with the season so close.

I am worried.

Could we see all 3 promoted teams staying up this season? Southampton have lost alot of players they will struggle along with West Ham and maybe West Brom? I don't know much from the teams coming up to judge them yet.

(Sorry JTC) don't care about Burnley or QPR as long as the Foxes stay up.
Piss weak SANFL and the CLOWNS who run it.

History says atleast 1 will go down.
Leicester for me are the favourites to go straight back down, Burnley will be in a scrap all year but I think QPR will finish mid table and well clear of the drop.
West Ham and Sunderland to join Leicester in the drop IMO

Time will tell Jim but we have to start in front of Burnley and QPR based on last year and the in's for this season for starters? Clearly you saw none of the Championship last season and to be honest how Derby did not win the playoff final is a question even the QPR fans still asking

Saw tons of championship games last season and you were the best by some and played some really good football but this season is a differant ball game and the facts are that since the EPL started in a fair majority of seasons the playoff winners of the Championship have finished higher than the Champions and runners up, dont ask me why but its just happens, I cant explain it. The ammount of times ive seen Championship winners come up on the back of great seasons only to go straight back down is staggering. For your sake I hope you guys buck the trend and stay up.
I remember everyone saying the same thing about Cardiff last year and how bad Palace would be ( including me ) and yet Palace finished in a respectable position and Cardiff was a joke

Where you finished last year means nothing to where you'll finish this year. Ask Cardiff

Foxes promised £180m in transfer funds although not seen anything like it spent so far. QPR have money to burn and the new manager will blow £m' s in the January window when it's too late.
Clarets have no money and no big money backers so we will have to get by on cast off' sand the managers judgement. Taylor and, god forbid I say it, Reid will both add heaps of experience at the back and in midfield. Dyche is a shrewd cookie and taking Sordell might be a waste of time or a master stroke but either way it won't cost us much financially.
As always, we are already preparing for the worst case and won't break the bank on promises and contracts that we can't afford. McCormack was a no go because of his wage demands, as is Deeney for the same reason. The Derby lad who was desperate to sign for us decided he wasn't that interested in premiership football afterall once Derby increased his wages from £6k a week to £18k and a five year contract. Good luck with that one Derby.

We have to be frugal because if the worst case happens and we go down we won't have the resources to finance big contracts. One thing is for sure, with Sean andy he in charge we won't be that gung-ho side from the last premiership escapade under Judas. Hand I think that might be the foundation for survival thus season.

Whatever happens, proud to be a claret, and another hell of an achievement considering we were 2nd favour it's to go down last year. 2/1 on this year ;)

The loss to Monaco ended those chances.

It is only early but United are playing some excellent football under LVG.
