Match Thread Spurs V Everton - 24th May 4pm

LOL, Nuno has managed over 30 games for them this season but it's Potter's five games that relegated them? Another excellent take from you, JFTM.
Potter was at West Ham from the prior January or so and their summer business was woefully inadequate. They actually were in a reasonably position under Lopetegui when Potter came in and he caused them to get worse. They signed a bunch of players in January and look a different side, but it’s too little too late.
 
All West Ham need is for Bowen to pull a rabbit out of the hat. Leeds have been in excellent form but they have also been getting a lot of good results via fine margins.
What I’d say about Leeds - they move the ball forward quickly, and get bodies in the box. Been a much better watch than we have this season. Fancy them to score twice at West Ham.

It depends if West Ham go back to their 4-4-2 that had been working well. If they go with the side they used at Newcastle you are probably right as they were inept.
 
Unfortunately for West Ham this'll be us on Sunday

Wait a minute, you told me that managers had little to no input into transfers at West Ham. Or does that only work when people point out the rubbish that Moyes signed there. Don't make me vault you, JFTM.

That’s not what I said at all. Moyes had a lot of say in west Ham transfers. But David Sullivan also likes to sign some, and always has. When Steidten came in you a third guy and who became the apex recruiter. He overruled Moyes on targets and also sold some squad players in that final January so they have more money for a summer splurge. But it also cost them in terms of weakening the side as they chased Europe and competed in the Europa.

What West Ham has never had is a well organized and structured recruiting department. They always cut corners and lacked scouts and analysts. They had one summer with a recruitment guy who Moyes had brought in and as it was not an immediate hit they ripped up the whole structure and started again. They basically lack a professional approach in the senior management positions.

You've literally just posted that you didn't say the manager doesn't sign the players at West Ham and immediately followed up by saying Sullivan and Steidten signed all the players that made West Ham crap. Not Moyes. But your position is that Potter, and his five game run, did sign all the players and royally screwed over Nuno, who definitely isn't rubbish and has managed 32 games for West Ham, leaving him powerless to resist relegation. You, sir, are pathological. Every manager and player that you rate is at best mediocre and is more often than not terrible.
 
There is no chance we win with Tarkowski/Keane, we will effectively be giving them a minimum 2 goal start.

If played OBrian in his correct position then maybe but he hasn’t done that in the last 6 games so it would be a major surprise.
