PieFacE Posted August 9, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 9, 2023 I actually think Maguire will be a good signing for West Ham. Will just be expected to get his head on the ball, attack set-pieces and not really needing to play out from the back. Think it will suit his game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Maguire, Ward-Prowse and Alvarez from Ajax with the Rice money, West Ham are a very unserious team who are clearly content with low mid table and lack any real ambition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much like when he was decent at Leicester before his United day's. He's still going to have more than his fair share of brain farts but they probably won't be caused by trying to play out from the back quite so regularly.

punkiller1981 Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Paqueta going to Man City too apparently looking like a bad window for them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villatillidie95 Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 if they can get 75 mil for him then they should take it imo, if they dont sell he will end up leaving on a free or on the cheap like felipe anderson and manuel lanzini who they had big hopes for. Fornals was the cheapest of their attacking minded midfielders and has done the best. The problem is if they get 75 mil for Paqueta then they will sign 2/3 average players with 0 resale value rather than astute signings like Emery and Monchi would make. The signings would be good for 2 or 3 seasons maybe, not pulling up any trees, but then you are in the same position with no assets to sell to fund the future....i don't see man city paying out that much for him and he will most likely stay, got a 4 year deal and his 85 mil release clause kicks in from next summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The man who said Emery wasn’t an upgrade on Gerrard couldn’t be wrong. Could he? Is he actually wrong though? I mean yes it's certainly possible that there won't be much resale value in them (though they're 28, 26 and 25 so it's not *impossible*) but given that Rice was always leaving, is that not a basically adequate mid-table midfield for 2 or 3 years?

Can’t stand the bloke…. even if he is right he’s wrong in my eyes lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 This is worse than Toney I think. Wish City'd have spunked 90m on him before this came out though 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Townsend Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 For some reason West Ham have been a bit of a bogey side for us since we came back. Wouldn't mind seeing them get relegated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since then the only win I can remember was a home win in 2013 maybe? Charles N'Zogbia winner of all things. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a beautiful free kick from nzogbia, I was right behind the goal in L5 lower holte, we really needed the points in those games too…we played QPR that season and think it was 3-2 with benteke getting some important goals 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the one I was thinking about. The 2013 was Benteke 1-0 from a penalty iirc, when we were really struggling. Was such an important win. Lambert knew how to pull a rabbit out of the hat when we really needed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goal from a free kick as well, the first time he ever took one. We were playing some nice stuff for that brief period.
