West Ham were one of the leading scorers in the Premier League last season, a contributing factor to their impressive 7th place finish. At different times of the season, whether it was Michail Antonio, Andy Carroll or Diafra Sakho, there was always an attacker who would step up and get the job done. This season, […]
West Ham striker Diafra Sakho is set for a return to the first team in the next 2-3 weeks, according to David Gold. The Senegalese international striker has been out of action since the end of last season and was tipped to leave the club in the summer after he handed in a transfer request […]
Former England coach Gary Neville has revealed why Mark Noble was snubbed from England’s Euro 2016 squad earlier this year. The West Ham captain, along with Danny Drinkwater who brilliantly anchored Leicester’s title-winning midfield and was called up to the national side in March, making his debut against the Netherlands but was equally overlooked from […]
Last season, an argument could’ve been made to say that was West Ham’s best side since their 1980 FA Cup winning side. Whether those players can go on to win silverware and be forever immortalised in West Ham folklore remains to be seen. Nevertheless, they have a long way to go to reach the heights […]
West Ham have just one clean sheet to their name in seven Premier League games this season – not the start anyone was hoping. When you look at our midfield, it’s reasonably strong and talented on paper. However, Mark Noble and Cheikhou Kouyate are not providing a strong enough shield to that back four to […]
West Ham have been handed a major injury boost this week as first-choice left-back Aaron Cresswell has made a return to first-team training. The former Ipswich Town defender sustained a knee ligament injury during a pre-season friendly against Karlsruher FC during their tour of Austria back in July and has been out of action since. […]
Some sad news has been dealt to West Ham Development Squad goalkeeper Nathan Trott as he has been forced to withdraw from the England U19 squad due to injury. The 17-year-old stopper has been a regular in the academy sides for the Hammers since joining the club on a two-year deal last season and the […]
West Ham have just one clean sheet to their name in seven Premier League games this season – not the start anyone was hoping. When you look at our defence, it’s reasonably strong and talented on paper. Winston Reid and Angelo Ogbonna, you’d think anyway, would be one of the better centre-back partnerships in the […]
After West Ham secured victory in the U21 Cup last season, many thought that some of the more highly-rated stars of that team would be pushed for a first-team breakthrough this season. However, West Ham’s awful start to the new Premier League season has limited Slaven Bilic’s opportunities to make bold team selections as points […]
West Ham have been active players in the free agent market since Slaven Bilic took over as manager 15 months ago. First-team members Sofiane Feghouli, Darren Randolph, Havard Nordtveit and Alvaro Arbeloa have all been signed on free transfers under Bilic’s stewardship. Not to mention the likes of Martin Samuelsen, Ashley Fletcher, Domingos Quina and […]
Simone Zaza has started life at West Ham in a fairly subdued fashion. He’s made five appearances since signing on a season-long loan from Serie A champions Juventus and has failed to score (or even look like scoring) in those games. West Ham were eager to bring in a big name striker to the club […]
West Ham sit 18th in the Premier League table, but at least Slaven Bilic knows where the problems are. The manager has stated that he is currently unhappy at the performances from his forwards so far this season which forced him into making a major tactical reshuffle for the home draw against Middlesbrough. Michail Antonio, […]
