A few things to ponder...

Submitted by Hammers65 on Sun, 08/11/2015 - 15:03

Any news on how long our main man payet will be out? i know hes having a scan but maybe im being a bit impatient!Also anyone know whats going on with Antonio?A few of us commented on why jelavic is coming on instead of him?,jelavic is offering nothing, surely antonio is worth a try??Also i rate Zarate,but noticed when he came on (a few on here have commented on this before) he didnt half hog the ball,& decided to shoot on goal rather than pass to (imo) players that were in better positions than him!!Last thing lanzini what a player (his goal was top drawer) what a find he is....A few things to ponder people.....

I don't think any of these were Bilic's targets,they were Sullivan's .All I know is that Lanzini and Payet were definitely Bilic's choices as he made apparent in the media.

Ogbonna was definately a bilic boy and apparently so was Antonio but he also wanted Moses after he became available at the very last minute, after we had signed antonio. Ogbonna was bought because bilic wanted better ball distribution out from the back. Su go didn't feel we needed another centre half with Reid, Tomkins, Collins, Henry, Burke and kouyate already aboard

Ogbonna will get his chance again so I think. Tomkins hasn't really done too much wrong and due to that you can't drop him. Reid is clearly the No.1 CB and walked back in after Collins did himself out of a job.
I'm surprised Obiang is not getting more game time but i guess you can't leve the captain out when he's not playing too badly. I think Antonio will get some game time in the new year with the cup run to Wembley.
The thing that disappointed me most on Saturday was the goal. To have the CB's split like that by the one player that clearly like's to score against us almost as much as Lampard did was a real kick in the arse. got caught ball watching and it cost us the 3 points which would have been great. how many for Lukaku now, 7 in 7 agst us. Not impressive by any stretch from a C&B POV. Lanzini's goal deserved to win the game, absolute top drawer and glad to be reading that we've got a water tight option to buy him.

YesI just heard he is out for 3 months. A real sickener. Let us hope that McCarthy gets his come-uppance soon. Hopefully Sakho will be back for the Spurs game. Not sure how bad Valencia is but I feel he is too lightweight. Jelavic was a complete waste of transfer money and Carroll seems surplus to requirements at the moment. Maybe a January rethink for Bilic.
