It's a weird turnaround from West Ham.

From the outside it kind of seemed like they were continuing their shite policy of overpaying for players who didn't want to be there and over-reliance on Antonio... but then it turned out that most of them were actually good.

And Moyes has done really well of course.

IMO, has a feeling of when we finished 5th tbh.  They've found a system that works etc, maintaining momentim but mainly exploting how poor the league is this year.

I truly believe that we could have been in their position this year if Rafa was still in charge. This has turned into one of those freak seasons where a European finish would have been possible and then you can kick on from there

No doubt at all, given a few decent signings.

Not too sure, even Ancelotti's Everton aren't exactly tearing it up as I would have thought after the first couple of games this season.

They're loads better than last season though.

I'm a 7 after last weekend. We've shown time and time again that we can go games without winning and its not inconceivable that we might not win a game again. If we lose to West Ham this weekend its going to be squeaky bum time for us again before we play Sheffield United.

Getting a player like Lingaard from a CL club has made a massive difference. We are talking about a match winner, not a left back. I think being able to score a player like that on loan skews the picture somewhat. Fair enough if there's a fee agreed to make it permanent when the loan deal finishes.

Oli McBurnie is out for the season, so I reckon that's Sheff U down now.

A bold and controversial prediction

Not much of a loss. A dreadful footballer 

[Candi_Hills]

We're losing the next four after West Ham and will probably lose to West Ham. Our arses will be going 5 pence 50 pence against Sheff Utd.

6 games for Fulham to get 6 points just to be level with us just isn’t happening. Cabbageheed has been saved by the likes of ASM and Wilson who shouldn’t even be close to this team in terms of the talent.

This really isn’t much. We’ve 4-5 games where we won’t be favourites next. They only need one to give them a chance. If it goes to the last game I know where my money is going.

Imagine him, Brewster and Joelinton been classed as premier league strikers

They were doing well long before bringing Lingard in. That said, there was absolutely nothing to suggest he'd go on the run he has. He's an average player in the form of his career.

Arsenal getting to the EL semis is a bonus. Definitely a game we should be targeting a point from.

I don't think they'd be CL contenders without his contribution in the last few months regardless of how well they were doing. He's added a touch of pace and firepower which has made WH look a lot more complete as a team.

Definitely. They’ve lost Antonio and Rice recently and would have struggled to keep the pace without Lingard.

[Yorkie]

We were safe the moment ASM ran onto the Burnley pitch. 

[SUPERTOON]

Burnley dragged right in this now especially with them playing Man Utd tomorrow 

[Dinho lad]

Fulham, then?

[nufcjb]

Bring on the takeover.

[Collage]

I think we’re staying up now and that’s good I guess.

[SUPERTOON]

10 next season if no takeover and Bruce is still in charge.

3/10 now. 2 more points probably does it
