Fan favourite makes brutally honest admission about playing for West Ham. West Ham fans need to hear what one of their top stars has said about playing for the club ahead of Monday’s clash with Newcastle. When Graham Potter arrived at West Ham he was full of praise for the club’s “proper knowledgeable” fans. Potter said he was seriously impressed with West Ham’s away support after they stayed long after the final whistle to applaud his team following the harsh 2-1 defeat at Chelsea last month. In the very next game, Potter saw the other side to West Ham fans.…
West Ham are battling it out with Newcastle United for Mainz striker Jonathan Burkardt, according to reports in Germany. The rumour has come from German publication Bild, which suggests that a £50m transfer fee would not be out of the question for the Hammers. At the risk of extinguishing everyone’s fireworks, the suggestion that such a hefty transfer fee is “not out of the question” is preposterous. While Lucas Paquetá is West Ham’s record signing at close to £50m, the club are in no position to pay out large sums of money before they know who is leaving the London…
West Ham are unlikely to rush Michail Antonio back from injury before the end of the season, according to Dr Rajpal Brar. The injury expert claims that it would be more sensible for him to use the summer to build his fitness back. The Jamaica international has been out of action for the Irons since a horrific car crash back in December. Hammers striker Michail Antonio is ramping up his rehab behind the scenes A senior West Ham source claimed that there is a small chance the 34-year-old is back in action before the end of the season. He’s understood…
West Ham Ready to Offload Newbie in Summer Clear-Out. West Ham will listen to offers for striker Niclas Füllkrug in the summer. That is the latest news from a training ground source who has told C&H that the Hammers are planning a ‘big clear-out’ at the end of the season. This aligns with what a top source at the London Stadium told us last week when they said, “We’ll have to offload a lot before we can buy.” Füllkrug has had a stop-start first season at West Ham, the details of which don’t need repeating to supporters for the umpteenth…
Graham Potter’s dangerous obsession with £20m West Ham man will cost him dearly in the end. West Ham United head coach Graham Potter is surely starting to know his players a lot better now. Graham Potter has been in charge of West Ham for just over seven weeks now, and he has already made a big impression at the London Stadium. Potter has proven to be head and shoulders above Julen Lopetegui in every single department. The football implemented by the 49-year-old is like night and day from what Lopetegui served up. And now it seems like he’s getting the…
Changed Hammer finally shrugs off Moyes’ shackles. The six-week transformation under Graham Potter has saved every Hammers’ fan from casting a worried eye down the table in silent calculation as to the likelihood of being dragged into a relegation battle. Six points in the last two games have enabled everyone associated with West Ham – me included- to breathe easier knowing that barring a miracle, three of the bottom four are all but doomed and the Irons are safe. Noticeable in Potters’ ‘same again’ squad against Leicester was the increased input from returned ex-loanee James Ward- Prowse. Responsible for a…
You will not believe what Vladimir Coufal did during West Ham’s win over Leicester City. Vladimir Coufal has been missing through injury for West Ham since our defeat to Chelsea on February 3rd. Vladimir Coufal moved to the London Stadium from Slavia Prague way back in October 2020, and just like his friend Tomas Soucek, he has been a great servant for West Ham. The 32-year-old bleeds Claret and Blue, and some of the criticism he has received this season has been slightly unfair in my opinion. Coufal is currently out with a slight hamstring problem, but he does have…
Time surely ticking down on one Hammer’s London Stadium future. The writing on the wall comes in many forms, in the merciless world of Premier League football. Sometimes it hits like a career ending injury, such as Dean Ashton suffered when on England duty. Sometimes it is less obvious but clear nonethelesss. When Vlad Coufal didn’t get called on to the pitch as at the replacement right back, but was usurped by Konstantinos Mavropanos used as an emergency right back by Lopetegui, Coufal must have realised that his time as a first-team player was almost up. Now it is a…
Potter Must Think Again – Don’t Sell This High-Quality Performer! West Ham just have to find a way to keep Jean-Clair Todibo at the club permanently. The Hammers have an obligation to buy the Frenchman at the end of this season for £35m, which will automatically be triggered. However, the general consensus is that Todibo will be purchased from Nice and then moved on quickly to raise transfer funds. But such is his quality that West Ham must seriously reconsider any strategy to ‘flip’ the player to Manchester United, who wanted him in the first place. While the central defender…
Common sense breaks out | West Ham’s ‘United’ ceasefire can last. West Ham United and common sense are not phrases that usually belong together. However the concessions climbdown that was evident evident yesterday when season ticket renewal information was published is clear evidence that common sense has prevailed, after a long and surprisingly united campaign by supporters groups, West Ham blog and news sites and pretty much every ‘consumer’ group connected with the club. The plan to make new concessions – under 16’s and over ’65’s cheaper tickets – ascend to the least desirable, highest, furthest away seats at London…
