    Maybe Hughton is this season's Moyes and we'll sign Benitez in the summer.

    Chris Hughton would tick the box of being available to so they wouldn’t need to pay comp to get a manager already in a role. Fits Sully’s business model to a tee

    Alders.

    Why would I complain about the style of play? We have no style and haven’t for years. We need passion and desire in our game . Style would come with better players but this club is miles from being able to play with style.
    We get out fought in every game as our players are gutless and get such an easy ride at this club.
    We need a side playing for our club and supporters. Style is something you have to earn the right to be able to show it.

    And Diop is suspended against Chelsea for his lack of guts?

    Also note that Fredericks is now one game away from a ban.

    Aslef,

    And Diop is suspended against Chelsea for his lack of guts?

    Sorry I missed that where did that happen? Kane fouls him and then he gets booked!

    The only style I want is a wining one. :whistle:
  • ASLEFshruggedASLEFshrugged
    You get banned for 5 yellows, if memory serves the other 4 were for being a little too ''gutsy'''.

    I like Houghton as a person but not sure about his style of play ( Ive seen a few Brighton games ). If there is any truth in the rumour then it can only be because he's free. Personally I wouldn't want to see a " stop gap " manager like Moyes was. Have the guts to get your man and give him a few quid in January , to plug any weakness he sees then he can start all over again in June!

    Because Dyche plays awful football and I remember that you weren’t exactly a happy bunny with the way Allardyce played.
  • HamstewHamstew
    I wasn't into this at all but I'm warming to the idea of Dyche.
  • Cuz1Cuz1
    Another no from me
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    Given Dyche is already in a job, if sully did have a shortlist of potential successors to pelle, he wouldn’t be on it.
  • HamstewHamstew
    Ex says Dyche has approached the club.
  • stevesteve
    Not my first choice ,But at lest he would get into those overpaid want to be footballers who call themselves West ham

    Surely Dyche wouldn't be that daft. Breach of contract? :hmm:

    Wouldn't surprise me if this came via Sully in the hope that Burnley would sack him for misconduct and we can get him without paying compensation :lol:
  • LukerzLukerz
    Dyche is gonna want to progress at some point.

    Only so much he can achieve there.
  • FortuneseekerFortuneseeker
    Dyche does at least know how to get the best out of a centre forward by crossing the ball into the big man in the middle.
  • SuzanneClaretSuzanneClaret
    Would he not be viewed as an Allerdyce / Moyes type manager?
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    Lukerz we are hardly a step up at the moment

    Ex reporting that Eddie Howe is interested in the job
  • Cuz1Cuz1
    If not pelle I’d like that one
  • OldCastleSwiftOldCastleSwift
    Sacking Pellegrini and hiring either Dyche or Howe would cost G&S in the region of £30m.

    Considering they couldn't fund a replacement for Pedro Obiang I think there's absolutely no chance of a managerial change before the summer at the earliest.
  • EXETERHAMMEREXETERHAMMER
    Pelle is still with us. Why would managers currently in a job be saying they are interested in managing us?
  • PengemanPengeman
    Dyche is a no nonsense manager and would be OK for me as he would get the overpaid WHU players to deliver or usher them out. Eddie Howe is unlikely to leave Bournemouth and would wait until Man U sack Solskar or may be he would end up at Arsenal. Frankly, I did not see anything wrong with Moyes. He had tactical nous and stabilised the team with 3-5-2. I haven't seen any tactical change from Pellegrini. His player recruitment has also been poor.

    Relegation will cost them more

    Of course. But if that's looking like a genuine risk and they do get rid of Pellegrini, his replacement is much more likely to be Chris Hughton rather than Dyche or Howe.

    Houghton. Next level stuff

    I think the difference would be that Dyche is actually doing a good job in the PL. Allardyce and Moyes were both out of work and their stock was not particularly high when we hired them.

    Burnley aren't the most attractive team in the league and I can see why the comparison has been made, but he's got Burnley playing effective, point-amassing football which, given our current predicament, is rather appealing right now.

    And he could achieve more here?

    It seems to me that some people overestimate just how big a club West Ham are. Right now we're no bigger than Burnley or Bournemouth so for Dyche or Howe it would be a sideways move not a step up.
