One thing we have proved is that to win a game we need to score 3 goals.
Playing Kilman just isn't helping us out in that respect and we need Mavro and Todibo in there and Kilman fucked off at a massive loss, we just have to admit we had our pants pulled down on buying him.

Mad Dog there is no doubt you could in terms of bravery and you are probably quicker than him too.
My old Nan is tougher and faster than Max and she’s been brown bread for 50 years.

We need another quality CB desperately and as much as our centre midfield has improved ( and it most definitely has after the Soucek, Irvine, Guido experiments ) I still think we cannot rely on Paqueta for creativity and linking defence to attack, Fernandes is still developing and besides, for us, is a number 8 not a number 10 as he was at Southampton. We need another ball carrier type with strength / legs. Magassa and Kante showed glimpses of whats needed against Fulham and Brighton respectively. LikeMorgan Rodgers does for Villa those bursts forward are so hard to stop. Just need another option to Paqueta who for me just aint a team player.
But I must say if we have managed to get 2 players in already I am already in shock. Just shows Sullivan is absolutely shi**ing himself.

I've been to two Lazio games in December 2024 Europa Cup v a Bulgarian outfit 0-0, and then Lazio v Roma and ended up in the Curva Sud with the Roma fans, September 21st 2025

The galling part about all this early successful January signings is Sullivan only acts when he shits himself losing his Premier League golden ticket. When we've been in decent positions under previous managers to kick on turn of the year chasingthe top 4, the cսnt sits on all the cash preferring to settle with what we've got spending fuck all. Sums his reign of terror right up the tight fisted little wanker.

Sterling would obviously be the ‘one of mine for one of yours’ for Sullivan as he always has to have.

Got a couple of lazio shirts recently. Total cost of £16

If it was a match fit, motivated Raheem Stirling with something to prove then it might of been worth it a couple of years ago. He's barely played for 2-3 seasons and he's on £350,000 bags a week. Also he made he first team debut at 16 years old. Those type of ex-whizz kids are usually burnt out by their 30th birthday so are best given a wide berth.
Exactly the kind of razzle dazzle signing we've come to expect. I'd be very wary but then I thought that of Jack Grealish but he's done well at Everton.
I still think Sterling is a huge Kalvin Phillips type risk for very little return.
Hmmm

Two strikers in would be amazing but I'll believe it when I see it.
Two strikers plus Traore and Sterling would be decent business alongside getting our money back on Guillherme.
A decent centre half on loan would also be good.

He’ll go to a lesser league, possibly where he speaks the language and will settle quicker, where you get more time and space on the ball, and he’ll do well.
Then some people will wang on about how we never got a tune out of him etc.
But the fact is we overspent on a young player who, up to now, has never been Premier League level.
We aren’t going to miss him. He’s contributed almost nothing to West Ham.
Good luck to him in the future. Hope he does well below Prem standard.
It’ll be like when we let Ajeti go. He went to Celtic, then Basel, and scored a few goals in a couple of pub leagues - and some of our fans thought we’d let go a world talent.

I predict Guilherme to be successful in Portugal, with Pablo scoring zero in the Premier League and maybe barely kicking a ball.
My rationale being the Portuguese league is shit. Gyokeres and Amorim should tell you that.
That said, hopefully he turns out to be as good as Jota.
