KaKa Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Paqueta looks a fish out of water if they are going full Moyes ball. And so on some level I imagine Moyes will not mind the interest at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaqen Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 (edited) You must feel absolutely sick as a West Ham fan to see the list of names they are targeting with the Rice money, and then to find out City are in for Paqueta too All just a few days before the season starts anarl.

Menace Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 £170M coming in from Paqueta and Rice money is crazy. If they had a capable board you'd be worried - but they'll spend it on absolute shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 (edited) Feel that Paqueta link has come from absolutely nowhere.

SUPERTOON Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 So are West Ham looking at a midfield of Alvarez, Mctominay and JWP? That’s awful if so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaqen Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 The context is it's a side that finished on 40 points selling their two best players and replacing them with bang average (at best) players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally didn't like the Scammacca and Paqueta signings for them last summer as I knew they wouldn't do much under Moyes. And for what it's worth I'm not saying they will be better than us with these signings. They'll just be much better than last year and more difficult to play against.

Man, we'll see when the season starts. You guys are just tied to the narrative Maguire, McTominay and JWP are shit players no matter the circumstances. I'm pretty confident that will prove to be completely wrong in a Moyes side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam P Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 The only reason West Ham did anything of note last season was because they had Rice and Paqueta. In the latter stages of the cup, it was Paqueta standing out as their best player. He found his feet at West Ham and was instrumental in getting them to the final. Losing those two players and replacing with JWP, McTominay etc will make them worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would embed the personality and style of Moyes even deeper into the club, only for him invariably to get sacked halfway through the season, and them to be left with a squad full of functional, old school players.

The turn around mostly came when they gave up on Scammacca and went back to Antonio up front. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players like JWP and McTominay are great in relegation battle. And also Maguire. 2 of there are good at set pieces, and certainly they will bring few points just with that ability alone. The thing is Rice and Paqueta are players that win you close games. McTominay is not. JWP is if you get a freekick from good position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam P Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Nope, their turnaround came when Paqueta and Rice learned how to play together. Antonio turning round their season is an absurdity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
