West Ham Online

May as well get going with this since with Sullivan at the helm, season ticket renewals slow, and the football vacuum to commence, this will soon be all the "news" there is.

Can Potter and MacCauley pull multiple rabbits out of the hat, or will Sullivan 'try really hard' with all of them before grabbing a few aging bargains from Big Willie Salthouse?

Window this close season comes in two parts:

Part 1: 1st June to 10th June
Part 2: 16th June to 1st September

I’m sure Potter has been instructed to start Guido for the first few games so that the fans soften their stance on Brownhill signing.

Personally not against Brownhill, blokes a warrior and leader, what he maybe lacks in quality he makes up in commitment and effort, he will at least give it 100% for 90 mins and has a sniff for goals!

Yep us fans are all panicking too and getting to the point where even Josh Brownhill would be welcome! I mean its better than no one and he works hard, scores a few even though he doesnt solve the "lack of legs" issue, he's a better profile than we have?     Ohhh noooo !!!! I've fallen into Sullivan's trap

We are getting close to panic stations I reckon, don’t be surprised to see Sullivan “take command “ and sign someone left of field that no one has heard of that one of his agent mates recommends, another Wellington could be on there way

Even just the midfielders would give us a chance.

Absolutely hung his manager out to dry by giving him the bare minimum again. Well, less than the bare minimum as the bare minimum was at least one midfielder to make this team function.

 

All correct, but Potter doesn't help himself with his rigid formation and no plan B. If Sullivan is making the deals and Potter is determining the very precise profile of players needed, it's no surprise that we can't make signings that improve the team without one of them suddenly becoming much, much more flexible.

As absolutely fuck all seems to be happening - we tried bollocks incoming - are they actively trying to get the club relegated. Other teams with smaller grounds, smaller everything all seem to be buying players in the £30m bubble and yet we seemingly cannot compete there. We all know where the problems lie but mainly in the old and slow as fuck midfield being the main culprit and yet no new additions. Yet loaning Alvarez, scored the winning goal in the CONCACAF gold cup and won player of the tournament, rather than selling him, frees up wages, how does that help with actually BUYING players. All lies and smoke and mirrors I know but also why sell Kudus so cheaply, Spurs were desperate after Maddison's ACL and yet after turning down £50m, rolled over and had our tummies tickled for £5m more. An still no movement on any incoming at all, just shitty rumours that have no substance at all. Rumours on so many players such as McAtee, Luiz, Elliott, Fernandes, Ramsey etc all bollocks. I am now going to the pub as watching tonight's game needs to be done through a rather alcoholic haze to numb the boredom of watching Potters attempt at putting a team out.

Rossal wrote: ↑22 Aug 2025, 08:48 Surely you only sanction the Alvarez loan because you have player X lined up ready to go and willing to do that swap as it improves the squad. 

We are letting arguably the strongest midfielder go out on a shit loan with no idea who to target to replace him. In the last 48 hours we have been linked with 10 midfielders. 

Its an absolute fucking mess, Sullivan can't sell and can't buy. 

We will get played off the park tonight and the toxic atmosphere here on in will lead to us spending all season in the bottom three and it's all on that useless dildo dwarf cսnt 

After getting smashed by the team tipped to finish bottom, I’m really impressed by Sullivan’s urgency to do absolutely fuck all this week 
absolute cretin

The Raheem Sterling thing isn't bow locks.

WTF .
