On the Diop and Fabianksi thing, he said he bullied Pellegrini into signing them. What a great way to run a football club.

Such a depressing interview. Basically Moyes is being thrown under the bus for daring to want players that improve the team. Absolutely shameful.

And after saying he bullied Pellegrini into signing players, and that he wished he'd overruled him on others, and that Moyes isn't going to get the players he wants, he says, "... but you have to back the manager."

I don't understand why he does these things. Why say anything at all? Does he really think that saying this stuff puts him in a sympathetic light?

Hamstew

Hate that guy so much. He's a parasite.

Yeoldhammer

it just shows the incompetency that they sold Diangana, didn't get in the player they wanted. So the net sum = unhappy team (see Noble tweet) = unhappy manager (because they 100% i believe underminded him) = unhappy fans (selling an asset for literally peanuts to receive nothing in return)

OldCastleSwift

I'm convinced the money for Diangana was required to pay off installments for Haller and/or Anderson.

That would at least show a hint of a strategy, albeit an embarrassing one.

The alternative is that Sullivan has absolutely no idea what he's doing, which is somehow more terrifying.

David Sullivan on talkSPORT: "I cannot say for sure we're going to sign anybody. As each day passes I get more depressed." #WHUFC

Are we supposed to feel sorry for this bloke?

Hamstew

Who'd have thought that it was everybody else's fault except Sullivan's. Glad he cleared it up.

The fans were on my back to have a Director of Football a big name manager, we did what the fans wanted and it didnt work.

Shameless.

Fans wanted a director of football to ensure continuity, not the manager's friends who would go with him. Now he blames fans, alongside Pellegrini. Never his fault. Nothing has changed since they sacked Zola.

And anyway, pretty sure the director of football stuff came from the review Moyes requested of how the club was run, not from the fans.

He employed an out of work D of F who had just failed miserably and his side got relegated

Is it any surprise he failed?

Same philosophy with managers for sully - take on the out of work ones.

Well Ex-Pat it is a very strange thing to do, letting everyone know that you’re depressed. So maybe there is something in what you say. Trying to leave with the sympathy card played.

buffybegood

The thing is, they've got to come up with some such sob story because, don't forget, they love the club, they're taking us to the next level, they're handing it down to their kids etc etc so they need an excuse to sell up (and take 100s of millions of pounds profit) so they're not called out as liars who only bought us in the first place because they saw a huge profit in it for them.

SSN reporting we have bid for Fofana at St Etienne. Anyone know if he is any good. He is a 19 year old defender.

And only costs 48p LOL

IronHerb

Didn't Leicester have a bid for him turned down?

ScotHammer

No, 30p plus add ons.

IronHerb

Who is this Addons?

For £30 mill I think, so typical of the poison dwarf to go in under

Oh but we so tried to get him

baracks_a_hammer

19 year old defender eh? This means he will be be put into the Dev squad, never be seen near the first team and will be unveiled as a Luton player 12 months later.

Maybe GSB should be called the Addons Family

BBC: West Ham are being linked with Juventus defender Daniele Rugani.

Until the rugani is pulled from under our feeteo 😂

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

How can him and Tarkowski both be targets

28 year old with tons of experience

19 year old with no experience but plenty of potential

Are we just picking names out of a hat and see which one drops

You’ve been a supporter for a while and you actually still need to ask this question?
