David Sullivan tried to bring West Ham hate figure back to London Stadium on deadline day. West Ham United co-owner David Sullivan allegedly tried to make a highly controversial move on deadline day. David Sullivan has been a busy man at West Ham over the past few weeks. The Hammers co-owner sacked Julen Lopetegui and replaced him with Graham Potter early on in the January transfer window. The winter window only yielded one signing in the end – the arrival of Evan Ferguson from Brighton. In fairness, James Ward-Prowse was recalled from his loan spell with Nottingham Forest on deadline…
Report | West Ham tried to tempt former bad boy striker back to London. The desperation to sign a striker in the window just gone apparently swept all other considerations aside. Even, according to an eyebrow-raising report today, trying to re-sign a former striker who’d forced an exit from the club and alienated most of the fan base, his team mates and the board just a few short years ago. Rumours were doing the rounds in November – as we reported. Now it would seem that there were more than ‘rumours’: Whether fact or fiction, there is a report today…
West Ham board source urges UEFA to review transfer Premier League rivals beat them to. Evan Ferguson was not the only striker West Ham tried to sign on deadline day but there was a bizarre twist which collapsed the deal. Some fans have been critical of West Ham’s owners for a lack of activity in the winter window. Many feel the fact West Ham only signed Evan Ferguson on loan showed a lack of ambition. That debate will likely rage until the summer, when the pressure will be on the board to back Graham Potter. But Ferguson was not the…
West Ham statement on Steidten exit leaves talkSPORT hosts in hysterics. Paul Hawksbee and Andy Jacobs were left in hysterics after they read Tim Steidten’s West Ham United exit statement live on talkSPORT. The Hammers technical director was relieved of his duties recently with Graham Potter choosing to bring in Kyle Macaulay to lead the recruitment department. Speaking live on talkSPORT (5 February, 14:09pm), Hawksbee and Jacobs shared their thoughts on the Hammers’ statement. “I did love the West Ham statement about the departing sporting director Tim Steidten,” Jacobs said. Hawksbee then asked: “Have they thanked him for his services?”…
Graham Potter may have decision to make after West Ham star ‘agreed’ deadline day exit. West Ham boss Graham Potter almost lost a winger on the final day of the transfer window. West Ham boss Graham Potter will have to manage an intriguing situation after the closure of the winter transfer window. The Hammers managed to bring in Evan Ferguson on loan from Brighton on deadline day, while they also managed to secure a couple of outgoing loans. Potter will be mightily relieved to get another forward in after losing Niclas Fullkrug to injury, and he knows Ferguson well from…
Suddenly, West Ham’s perennial substitute is a young man in demand. The trouble with transfer windows is that they don’t all close (‘slam’ – how I hate that expression) on the same day. The English Premier League closed on Monday, the Dutch window 24 hours later and the Brazilian window not until – sigh – 28th February. So one West Ham player continues to be linked with a loan away, just this morning with Brazilian club Botofago being reported as the prime suspects to lure him away. However in the last few days, West Ham’s attitude towards young Luis Guilherme…
Danny Murphy admits West Ham fans won’t like him after his latest comments. Jarrod Bowen is “such a good player” that it’s surprising he’s still at West Ham United, Danny Murphy has said. Speaking on talkSPORT (5 February, 10:06), Murphy anticipated a backlash from Hammers fans for saying he’s “surprised” that Bowen has stayed at the London Stadium for as long as he has. The 28-year-old returned from a five-match absence through injury to score the opener against Chelsea on Monday (3 February), with Murphy taken aback by how “sharp” the Irons skipper was in his first game back. Murphy…
Andy Irving makes honest admission about West Ham move, lifts lid on the lengths he’s gone to in order to change. Andy Irving has already established himself as a cult hero amongst the West Ham United fans. Incredibly, Andy Irving had to wait until Monday before he made his competitive first start for West Ham – a full 18 months after he moved to the London Stadium. The 7 WORST Football Club Rebrands David Moyes brought the 24-year-old midfielder to the London Stadium from from SK Austria Klagenfurt on transfer deadline day in the summer of 2023, and then immediately…
Tim Steidten has admitted buying Niclas Fullkrug for West Ham United was a mistakeby. West Ham United parted ways with Tim Steidten as their technical director yesterday after 18 months of working together, and the German has admitted that buying Niclas Fullkrug was a mistake, according to The Athletic. The Hammers spent £27 million to bring the 31-year-old to the London Stadium club from Borussia Dortmund last summer, handing him a £90,000-per-week deal, but he has hardly been fit. Steidten was concerned about the injury record of the West Ham striker and was aware of the risk he was taking…
Chelsea receive new referee verdict to clarify ‘game-changing’ flashpoint vs West Ham. Chelsea came from behind to record a much-needed 2-1 win over West Ham at Stamford Bridge on Monday night. Dermot Gallagher reckons no-one would have argued if on-field referee Stuart Attwell deemed that Levi Colwill’s challenge on Jarrod Bowen in the build-up to Chelsea’s equaliser against West Ham was a foul. The incident occurred in the 64th minute, when Colwill appeared to crash into the side of Bowen in an off-the-ball tackle. As Tosin Adarabioyo passed the ball back to Filip Jorgensen, Colwill looked to have blocked Bowen’s…
