If Moyes is still here, it really doesn't matter.

Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
Yet again Nutsack is missing everyones point....

Lone strikers all have to "run the channels" as you cringingly call it... god you are weird.. cos they are lone strikers and thats where the ball ends up so they go where the ball is...

But as when we set up to attack with a front 3 with Bowen and Kudus you want Antonio or whoever is the striker in the middle..

You've not played football have you... its all just cliches with you..

Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
That said, I have absolutely no idea who we "should" sign. We need to replace the ageing Antonio, and with a striker good enough to lead the line for a team that has been in Europe for the past three years.

There aren't many who will be available this summer.

Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
Not Solanke.

No offence meant to him, as he's having a decent season, but we're a little bit better than the likes of Solanke.

This year might be a bit of an exception for him, as everything Bournemouth do is geared towards him. But if you take out his Championship seasons (getting goals against the likes of Rotherham and Millwall is just not the same), then his Premier League goalscoring record is not that great.

I'm always wary of paying premium prices for the guy that's had his one good season. Our fans have lost patience with better strikers than Solanke down the years.

Mohammed Kudus is the top rated player in Team of the Week for the Europe's Top 5 Leagues 29 March - 1 April 2024

We're going to have a struggle to keep him next season.

Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
I’d go big for Solanke personally, signed a new deal so could be hard to get him out of Bournemouth but I think he’d be perfect for us. Centre forward & centre back is where most of the money has to go, we need 2 CB’s really. Chuck in a right back & winger plus Paqueta’s replacement it’s another rebuilding job.

Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
The Feyanoord bloke does look good, but don’t they all on YT when I just did a search!

As to suiting our system, hope that’s not the Moyes style system! LOL

Hopefully Moyes goes in the summer and I expect that position gets filled first, Any incoming striker would hopefully be recruited by Steidten to fit the new gaffers style and philosophy, hopefully the free flowing attacking kind.

Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
If, like me, you have limited knowledge of European players then it's hard to say, there are probably a number out there who might be a good fit for us and obtainable, but I wouldn't know about them. Apparently Gimenez at Feyenoord is meant to be mustard and would suit our system?

As for the PL, then yea as said Solanke or Toney. Toney would be sensational for us, but I can't see that happening, and isn't the point of Steiden to find the next Toney?

Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
Not seen the Genoa lad but I thought he was more a left winger no ??

I watched the USA vs Mexico game recently and Santiago Giménez (Feyenoord) came on & looked pretty tasty. Only 22 but certainly a big unit & managed to get onto most of the balls into the box played in by Mexico whilst chasing the game. 1 in 2 rate for Feyenoord is pretty good.
I got a bit of a Dean Ashton vibe from him.

How about getting both Gudmundsson & Gimenez?
That'll be LW & striker sorted with Kudus & Bowen having a laff.

Alfs 4:47 Fri Apr 5
Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
Toney or Solanke. We'll be able to afford one of them and have change out of Paq's 85 million.

Then 50 million of the tv money to replace Paq and a solid centre back.

And bring Downes home!

Fauxstralian 2:15 Fri Apr 5
Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
I see Toney has been linked but Brentford will want a lot of money ... and Chelsea or Arsenal were said to be interested
We need to find the next player not paying fortunes
Thought we should have gone for Gyokeres at Coventry when he was £20m ... went to Sporting (?) & now some are talking of triggering his £85m buyout

After we get a new manager that plays a system that suits a striker I'd trust Steidten to find a reasonably priced one

Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
Note that Scholes is critical of Lukaku for NOT running in behind.
And it’s a long long time ago, before multiple injuries (And weight gain).

Well done Nutsin.

Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
How quaint. One random quote from 6 years ago when Lukaku was 24. God loves a trier Nutsack

Nutsin 1:40 Fri Apr 5
Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
Paul scoles quote on Lukaku

Scholes told BT Sport of a player he has been critical of in the past: “Because he’s come to Man United, it seems like he thinks he has to be a footballer, he has to come into a No.10 role.

“He doesn’t, that’s the last thing he needs to do. He hasn’t got the ability to do that.

“His strengths are running in behind, getting on the end of crosses and midfield players have to tell him to do that: ‘Don’t come in as a No. 10, you can’t play’.

“I don’t want to be disrespectful to him but his control isn’t great. He is someone who has to run in behind, and he can finish and score goals.”

Think I’ll take Paul Scholes opinion over your Goose.

Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
Rio Ferdinand played midfield a lot when he started out, he’s not a midfielder.

Ogbonna isn’t a left back.

It’s not 1989, “running the channels” is not his game.

You’re lost son.

Nutsin 1:11 Fri Apr 5
Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
No goose you said he doesn’t play center forward, he has played there 148 times ffs.


You meant to say he doesn’t play center forward anymore.

Which doesn’t alter my paoint on the type of center forward we should be looking for now does it? A Rashford style center forward one who can run the channels makes perfect sense doesn’t it?

onsideman 1:10 Fri Apr 5
Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
Lukaku running the channels! :))

Fuck me, every day I come on here there's more evidence of Nutsack making a cunt of himself on one thread or another. It's no longer restricted to anti-moyes threads, it's fucking everywhere!

He's deranged

Left winger

His words:

“I prefer the left, I feel like on the left it's easier to stay in the game,” he added. “From even when I was younger I always wanted to stay in the game, that's why I think I struggle playing centre-forward sometimes because I struggle with patience.”

Nutsin 12:55 Fri Apr 5
Re: What striker do you want to see West Ham sign in the summer?
Just looked up some stats Rashford has played center forward 148 times ffs. Yeah he’s no center forward.

Unfuckingreal! You should be embarrassed.
