Perhaps they should adopt WWE style nicknames. You know, things like The Arsonist, The Dead Man and the Eater of Worlds. Actually they should use the entrances too, including music, and every match should end with the opposition being hit by ladders and thrown through commentary tables.

West Ham are already exploring a collaboration with Vince McMahon.
That was a proper lol.

Snooker is brilliant for this. Many of the nicknames you get, Hurricane, Whirlwind, Rocket but then you get Mark Selby, a man who appears never to have knowingly been in the presence of humour, being the Jester from Leicester.

Beating Southampton helped. I reckon we could get something from the Chelsea game next weekend.

LOL! Not this time. If we play like we did on Saturday I reckon we'll have a good opportunity to tell Chelsea where they can stick their blue flag.

Isn’t it said that Messi is on live with football and Ronaldo is in love with Ronaldo?

Funny how the press treats teams differently. Liverpool fans attack the Citeh bus and nothing, West Ham attack the Man U bus or a few fans run onto the pitch and we're all basically scum. Liverpool fans can do no wrong after Hillsborough. Funny that as you only have to go a few years earlier and see what happened at Heysel. Mickey Mousers never had any class, which is why they always loved their stanley knives.

There will be a two year inquiry which will go on to blame the OB.

Lanzini suffered a torn cruciate ligament whilst training for the Argentina team. Likely to be out for the whole of next season. Worst case scenario is that it might end his career. Typical West Ham luck ffs.

Wtf?

@ExWHUEmployee (who is by far the best West Ham ITK) hinted at this a couple of days ago on The West Ham Way podcast. Personally I wouldn't want that snake back. I can't forgive him that easily.

France looking good, Griezmann excellent.    Watch his free kick and the stutter, the whole defence crash.

I hope you have better luck keeping him out of the treatment room than we did.

72 games last two seasons ain't bad. More than any West Ham player last two. I'm not worried. And he hasn't been plagued with muscle strains, which would be a worry.
