Welcome Vladimir Coufal

baracks_a_hammer

Finally a signing!

A big welcome to Vladimir Coufal

Hopefully if we are getting something like Repka (minus the red cards), then there is certainly a future West Ham cult hero in the making!

Awesome

This deal makes sense

Now let's get 1 or 2 more

Thisnis from July, so maybe he was our first choice after all

steve

In that case ,Sorry always was our 1st choice ,Bet you feel better now

Look forward to seeing him in action. According to all reports and Soucek he has the same work ethic with stats showing he never covers less than 11km in a match.

I think this is a good signing, in terms of it’s an area we needed a player in. We have Ben Johnson but it is unfair for him to play all 38 games at his age, he will need time in & out of the side. Fredericks, for me, has never convinced & is injury prone. Johnson can possibly cover LB too.

He seems experienced & a decent person. It’s always about getting players who may not be Hollywood names but fit into the club & team.

ianbishoplegend

Can’t wait for him to swing one in for Soucek

Giant_Hammer

Can’t wait for him to swing one on Vardy.

273 appearances, 33 yellow cards, only one straight red back in 2010 with two double yellows. in 2012 and 2016.

Definitely not a Repka (thankfully)

alderz

I loved Repka, one of my genuine favourites

EXETERHAMMER

I hope Coufal comes straight in and plays..... Could he play wingback?

alderz

If they’ve signed a right back who can’t play at right wing back, after discovering we are much better with a back 3, then that would be some of the worst business we’ve done. He must be able to play wing back.

IronHerb

I don't think he will average 11-12km a game if he isn't crossing the half way line.

OldCastleSwift

He delivers an excellent cross and according to Soucek is up and down the flank all game.

All points to him being a very good wing back.

Kuchinghammer

I have a good feeling about this signing, based on nothing in particular. It's called a West Ham supporter syndrome

EXETERHAMMER

Loving his first 45 mins

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

Thought he'd be a shrewd/smart signing

But get the feeling he could be a fantastic one

OutcastLondoner

You know what, he reminds me of a (not quite prime) Zabaleta.

buffybegood

And he's got a long throw too

Kuchinghammer

Still got that good feeling about Vlad. His anticipation to snuff out trouble early was very impressive

BubblesNeverDies

The way some of his tackles went in we should call him Vlad the Impaler.

Pearces_Left_Foot

Like the way Vardy put a heavy tackle on him early and he repaid the favour no messing with him

I just noticed that both Soucek and Coufal didn't even leave the bench for the Czech Republic tonight. Whilst I am pleased about that I would rather these friendlies were not taking place at all. It must be a covid risk and the last thing any club wants is players returning covid positive.

Pearces_Left_Foot

Another good performance from coufal we look so much better down the right now with Bowen doing his bit as well ,plus he is getting assists as well.

Be serious CBS, there is money at stake with these friendlies
