  • Freddie Sears Derby :wink:
  • Ex reporting that there is doubt over Nolan & Nevin’s futures. Moyes wants both to stay but both have been approached by other clubs & they have not had new deals here sorted.

    Ex says with the budget tight he is not sure what will happen.
  • Felt like we improved when Nolan came in.

    So we may not even be able to afford to give Moyes that backroom staff he wants, let alone players?

    They brought him back for a second time. They have to back him, surely.
  • New contracts signed with coaching staff, so we can afford to employ them..

    Are we sure that they've only signed on as coaches? Could be cover at LB (Pearce) and attacking midfield (Nolan) knowing how G&S like to get value for money.

    Some pictures from the training camp

    Can see that Coventry, Diangana, Cordoso and Baptiste are all involved

  • More games announced:

    Brentford at home on 29th August
    Reading away on 1st September
    Bournemouth at home in the BetWay cup on 5th September

    Not a bad preseason, IMO
  • Rubbish that’s not a test
  • A team that got relegated from the Premier League, a Championship team that lost the playoff final and another than finished mid-table.

    That's a very good pre-season considering that travel to and from overseas is severely restricted. We're not going to get Atletico Madrid at the London Stadium if they have to go through a 14 day quarantine.
  • Pre seasons are not designed to be a test but to attain match fitness.
  • Anyone got a full list of our pre-season games and dates ?
  • Yeold, only what I’ve written in this thread so far. The five games are it
  • Ipswich will be streaming the game today on their website but they are charging a tenner

  • You can watch the Wycombe game live on West Ham YouTube channel &/or Facebook page.

    Interestingly, with the squad split, you would expect a longer playing time for some players & then maybe a load of kids coming on.
  • Wait are these games both on at the same time?

    That seems very odd, is our squad that big to field 4 different XIs
  • From West Ham web site,
    The Hammers’ first-team squad will be split in half, with one group of players facing EFL Championship new boys Wycombe Wanderers at Adams Park, and the other tackling League One side Ipswich Town at Portman Road. Both matches will kick-off at 2pm.
  • LOSS AND LOSS........... =)
  • Vs wycombe

    Martin
    Johnson Baptiste Ogbonna Masuaku
    Noble Cullen
    Bowen Lanzini Fornals
    Antonio

    Sub: Anang, Akinola, Adarkwa, longelo, Xande, rosa

    Vs Ipswich

    Randolph
    Alese Balbuena Soucek Cresswell
    Coventry Wilshere
    Yarmo Anderson Diangana
    Haller

    Sub: roberto, cardoso, lewis, Kemp, Odubeko

    So quite a few are going to have to play 90 minutes, let's hope there are no injuries
  • We’ve never lost two games at the same time before. This will be a new experience.

    Rice? Snodgrass?
    Surprised by Lanzini/Fornals in one match and Anderson/Diangna in the other.

    Trust the Moyesiah.
  • So for those that don't know much about our youth players

    Akinola - 21 year old centre back, think he captained the U23s last year

    Adarkwa - 19 year old centre forward

    Longelo - 19 year old left back (former winger)

    Rosa - 19 year old centre mdifielders/attacking midfielder and sometimes at full back

    Cardoso - 19 year old centre back signed from Boavista last year

    Kemp - 21 year old winger/midfielders

    Odubeko - 17 year old stirker we signed from Man United last year
  • why are these pre-season game streams always done on a potato camera under absolute useless sound quality. i could stream better quality from my own phone with better audio quality.
  • Masuaku has just scored a class goal

    We have the Wycombe one and it's ok.
