Tottenham receive boost as key man decides to stay. Tottenham assistant manager Ryan Mason was linked with a move to European club Anderlecht this past week. It was reported that the Belgian club were considering bringing him in as first-team manager to fill the vacant job. Mason was also said to be very much interested in taking the leap towards first team management with them. However, despite initial interest from the club and the player, Anderlecht ended up deciding against hiring him. That is according to Evening Standard, who report that the decision was a mutual one, as both decided…
West Ham United gem Mohammed Kudus should be embarrassed as footage emerges tonight. West Ham United gem Mohammed Kudus will be feeling rather embarrassed as he was guilty of an all-time howler on Ghana duty. The forward played a full part for his national side as they drew 0-0 with Sudan in Thursday’s (10 October) Africa Cup of Nations qualifier. Kudus had a glorious chance to win the contest in the 89th minute, only to somehow miss from a little over a yard out and the net gaping. As footage shared by FanzStand on X [10 October] shows, the ball…
West Ham star Konstantinos Mavropanos has been hailed a ‘world better’ but Jarrod Bowen was the big winner from England’s defeat to Greece. West Ham fans could be forgiven for not tuning in to watch England’s game against the Greeks. Hammers talisman Jarrod Bowen was shockingly overlooked by interim England boss Lee Carsley. But he wasn’t alone in feeling hard done to. West Ham’s Max Kilman has been superb this season and is just what England have been crying out for – a ball-carrying, left-footed centre-back. Meanwhile Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been immense since joining the Irons too. Wan-Bissaka has even…
European giants propose a swap deal for one of West Ham’s key players. Aside from Declan Rice, West Ham have done an excellent job at keeping hold of their most important players over recent years. Unfortunately, without European football, the task of convincing these players to stay becomes increasingly more difficult, especially when they gain interest from some of the continent’s biggest clubs. While they’re not the first to show interest, AC Milan are the latest club to want the Mexican, according to MilanLive. Interestingly though, they’re not wanting to do a normal cash deal, they reportedly want to do…
So you’ll have guessed from my headline that I’m not a big fan of James Ward Prowse : when he arrived at West Ham United last year with a lofty £30 million price paid by Moyes, the expectation was already set far too high. For a midfielder who is a one-trick pony who then forgot his ‘trick’, it would be fair to say he disappointed last season. Fair enough, he delivered corners well. That was it. In midfield he and Tomas Soucek formed the deadly double pivot which moved side-side-back in an inevitable, dull defensive midfield waltz which lacked creativity.…
There’s hyping a talented youngster, and then there’s saying he’s the kind of player ‘born once in a hundred years’. Croatian newspaper Večernji List are going for this line with Luka Vušković, who is set to arrive at Tottenham Hotspur in the next summer transfer window. Spurs are expected to pay €11-15m, and as part of getting ready for the move from Hajduk Split to the Premier League, the 17-year-old is now on his second loan away from the Croatian side. The first was to Radomiak Spółka Akcyjna in Poland for the initial chunk of this year, and for the…
Tottenham Hotspur star Destiny Udogie put in an awful second half as his side collapsed from a 2-0 lead at half-time to a 3-2 loss against Brighton and Hove Albion on Sunday afternoon – and that has seen Spurs journalist Alasdair Gold land him a paltry 3/10 match rating after a tough afternoon on the south coast. Goals from Brennan Johnson – who has now scored in six games in a row in all competitions – and James Maddison had Tottenham cruising at half-time, with Brighton unable to land a glove on their counterparts as Ange Postecoglou’s men controlled the…
Ipswich boss labels West Ham long ball merchants and Alan Shearer rips him apart. West Ham ran out comfortable 4-1 winners against Ipswich Town in the Premier League but they didn’t impress the visiting manager. When West Ham were looking at candidates to replace David Moyes in the summer, Ipswich boss Kieran McKenna was reportedly considered. The former Man United coach was one of a plethora of names linked with the Hammers after impressing by leading Ipswich back to the big time with consecutive promotions. In the end Julen Lopetegui was the man West Ham went with. But the Spaniard…
Tim Steidten unhappy at West Ham United as board overrule him on new manager. Tim Steidten wanted now-Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler as the West Ham United boss before Julen Lopetegui was hired, according to the Sun on Sunday. The newspaper reported on 6 October via its print edition (page 54) that Steidten had a few different candidates to replace David Moyes with Hurzeler on the list. However, he was “overruled” due to his age. This has created frustration for Steidten, who is becoming tired of the board not considering his thoughts, causing his unhappiness. The likes of Sergio Conceicao and…
Julen Lopetegui singles out West Ham duo and unused sub for special praise. There is nothing quite like going into an international break off the back of a win and West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui needed it. The October and November international breaks have seen off many a Premier League manager down the years. So it was somewhat understandable the media were piling pressure on Julen Lopetegui given his underwhelming start to life at West Ham. There is nothing worse than wallowing on a defeat or disappointing result for two weeks while players meet up with their countries. The void…
