Apart from Enzo their midfield is quite weak. For all the money they have spent they still got some to do. Looking likely this is how they could lineup v Liverpool on the weekend. Definitely looks underwhelming Kepa James Silva Colwill Chilwell Gallagher Enzo Sterling Carney Mudryk Jackson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 West Ham spunking circa £115,000,000 on Maguire, McTominay and JWP would be simultaneously utterly abysmal and absolutely hilarious.

Uninspiring as fuck though and only McSauce is likely to get any better (and not really). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll carve out a few wins from tight games through set pieces, 9 goals in a garbage season last year. Think Moyes will stink up the place but ultimately get 12th place or something.

I get your point totally and no I wouldn’t want any of them here but looking at their strengths and weaknesses I think they will slot in well 🤷♂️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Most shocking about that signing is that JWP is 28, thought he was like 24-25. Should have known better mind, as it also feels like he's been around forever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 I just think losing Rice leaves a massive hole in the team and adding 3 adequate/reasonable players to the squad doesn't improve the first team at all. Fair enough they've bulked out the squad with mediocrity but they're way worse off without Rice imo, he was the heart of the club (cringy as fuck) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Don’t think you’re ever going to improve the team after losing Rice though. You’ve got money but you’re still West Ham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ve got money but you’re still West Ham. It's a tough ask I'll admit But it just seems so lazy to get a massive wedge of money and then just waste it on 3 such average, mediocre players to pad out a squad that's already average and mediocre. They've just made it bigger, not better. They could have bought an upgrade an CF, GK and maybe 1 other position maybe? Just feels like they've had £100m+ burning a hole in their pockets and felt the need to spend the lot before the month is out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Oh yeah, it’s very boring for sure. Long term it doesn’t seem a good idea to have Moyes asking for these types of players. Maybe they’re just too worried about replacing him and rolling the dice on relegation again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the best chance they’ll have to replace people albeit Moyes is obviously hugely limited when it comes to type of players and football he wants to play.
