Why has he only made 5 appearances?

too small ?

Tony Cottee? Ben Yedder would have been better that what we have had so far this season but that wouldn't be difficult.

I know I said it because that was apparently the main reason why we didn't sign him even though he is taller than that argy chap we have

Fortuneseeker

Hamstew, Slav knows best that's why he keeps bigging up Zaza! ;wink

OldCastleSwift

Any further news on Fernandes? Hopefully not a bad one as he has looked very good

IronHerb

It looked to me that he got a knee in the thigh. He walked off ok when they realised he wasn't Lanzini ;doh
So it didn't look too bad but hey this is West Ham so probably 3 months and an op. ;lol

Another bulletin full of positives! ;doh

MrsGrey

That's such rubbish.

The info put out today by the club about Sakho and Carroll is completely consistent with what has been said before.

Dunno where C+H get the impression that there is some kind of contradiction between what was said before and what was said today.

Because there isn't.

Still, gets them the click throughs, and their advertising revenue, I suppose. ;doh

For the record:
This week, Ac continues his rehab. Last week, AC is making steady progress and continues his rehab. (The 'bridges to cross comment, mentioned as 'last week' by C+H was over 2 weeks ago).


Last week - Diafra Sakho will start training in controlled U23 sessions on Monday. He will then join the first-team squad the following week. This week: Diafra Sakho has been training all week with the Under-23s in controlled but hard sessions. Will join the first-team squad next week.

MrsGrey

Fortune, my preference is to not worry too much about how other bloggers etc reinterpret the bulletins put out by the club, but to look at the actual bulletins.

So as to avoid being misled by (accidental or deliberate) misrepresentations.

Slaven_Cups_His_Beard

it's all about the hits for old Hughie!!

Yeoldhammer

Sakho fit for Afcon thats all. I doubt he plays for West Ham again.

IronHerb

If he doesn't play we can't sell him on if that's what you want.

Yeoldhammer

Exactly

IronHerb

Then he plays, for us that is.

Yeoldhammer

We will see. Id listen out for his interview at his next club. Reckon he will talk alot of trash about West Ham.

buffybegood

I really really don't get the situation with Sakho, I can't help feeling we haven't been told the full story. According to the OS, although he's joining the first team next week he's still several weeks away from being re-introduced gradually into games, so we're looking like December at the earliest. Our season started in July and he still won't be fit till December?????

SuzanneClaret

I wonder if he really does just have a chronic back injury?

Fortuneseeker

I heard he had been using medication to ease his back injury but had recently been able to train with no adverse reaction without the additional treatment.

MrsGrey

That sounds good ;ok

MunichHammer

The amount of information on any specific injuries to AC will always lead to rumours. Why haven' t they come out and said what he actually has? It' s almost as if they were tryingto cover up some doping ban or something by claiming he has an injury. The same could be said for DS, though, as nobody really seems why he failed the medical at West Brom. (I might just have missed the odd bulletin due to work, though, and am just rambling about )

Slaven_Cups_His_Beard

Regarding Sakho I think Slav has just smoothed things over in some of the press conferences, from the moment it was rumoured he'd questioned Slav for not picking him against AFC then I didn't think it would end well, apology or not.

Then to be hopelessly out of shape and 3 months behind, probably was the straw that broke the camels back, I didn't think I'd see him in a WHU shirt again and can see him gone in January.

MrsGrey

Comments about signing a striker in January have been moved to the 'January transfer window' thread ;ok

thornburyiron

Andy Carroll chased by armed motorcyclists after leaving training on Wednesday. He managed to return to Rush Green safely. . Police are investigating

MrsGrey

Slav was asked about it at his press conf. earlier. Says he's OK.

Also referring to his rehab, if all goes according to plan, he'll be "back on the pitch in two weeks."

brookingsirons

I hear its the fastest time recorded for any striker running from the car park at rush Green ...

Hammerex

Its the fastest he has moved for months.

brookingsirons

Getting him to play for us is like a shot gun wedding ;wink

Perhaps Bilic needs to get armed at training from now on with a shoot to kill policy
if he doesn't get fit quick enough ;lol

McHammer

Andy will be back on the pitch in 2 weeks. Slav does not say if this is the first team pitch.

brookingsirons

Yes chased by a motor bike with 2 hooded men a round the pitch until Slav is satisfied with his fitness levels ;biggrin

Yeoldhammer

bet Carroll gets a setback to his injury to rule him out for Xmas and New Years
