West Ham are considering a move for Besiktas winger Gokhan Tore, according to MirrorFootball. Tore was a key player for the Turkish giants under Slaven Bilic, and the Hammers’ new boss is eager to be reunited with the 23-year-old by bringing him to east London in January. Reports in the summer (Guardian) claimed Bilic had

If you were to ask me at the beginning of the season what are best defensive pairing was I would have said Winston Reid Reid and James Tomkins, all day long. After the game at Arsenal, where Carl Jenkinson was forced to miss out due to ineligibility, we were forced to play James Tomkins at right-back.

Losing Dimitri Payet for three months seems to have thrown us in to turmoil. We weren’t quite the same against Everton after he limped off and then we clearly missed his influence and creativity in the shambles at White Hart Lane. But we’ve just got to get on with it and prove to everyone, and

My first thoughts in relation to a Scotty Parker’s suggestion that we are destined for a mid-table finish in the current Premier League season is that perhaps Slav has sown that he is ‘human’, after all. Our starting line-up against Spurs was clearly not right (no further arguments needed) – Carroll should not have started!

Finally the international break is over and we can get back to more important business. It’s one of the most anticipated fixtures of our season Sunday as we make the short trip to White Hart Lane to face a Spurs side who have just just once all season. The big talking point is whether

Devastation swept across Upton Park when it was discovered French midfield star Dimitri Payet’s ankle injury resulted in the Hammers being without the former Marseille playmaker for three months. Other than Arsenal’s Mesut Ozil, Payet created more chances than any other player in the Premier League. With Ecuadorian striker Enner Valencia also set to be

If you’re a Football Manager player then you’ll know managing West Ham on the game is a difficult task. Over the years our players have been average on the game, and it’s pretty difficult to strengthen the side from the off when the board give you limited funds to work with. This year it’s a

The duo faced off in a frame of Snooker ahead of the Betway UK Snooker Championships, but not before they received some tips from World Snooker Champions Stuart Bingham and 2012 UK Championship winner

The enigma that is Andy Carroll. There is a divide and there has been one for a while now where certain supporters of the club think we can’t do without him, whilst others just don’t know what to make of the 26-year-old Geordie. Certainly he was Allardyce’s favourite and with his mate Nolan, they were

It’s fair to say we’re all pretty devastated that Dimitri Payet has been sidelined for up to three months with an ankle injury. Before James McCarthy’s barbarism robbed us of our most exciting player we were all pretty excited about having a player of Payet’s class wearing the famous claret and blue. He’s been sensational

We all hoped it was just a knock. That taking him off just after the restart was precautionary. That he’d be back and ready to go again after the international break. Instead, three months. THREE MONTHS!? Our player of the season so far has been ruled out for up to three months while Everton’s James

Since the founding of the Premier league in 1992, there have been many midfielders to pull on the famous Claret and Blue shirt for West Ham United. Some top class players, some average players, and some players which were quite simply, awful. With West Ham fans often looking for attacking, offensive style football, the midfield

Manuel Lanzini became West Ham’s eight summer signing when he completed a season-long loan from Al-Jazira in late July. Lanzini was relatively unknown to most West Ham fans. Nicknamed the ‘Jewel’, he started out at Argentinian side River Plate before moving to the UAE to join Al-Jazira. YouTube clips were certainly portraying him an impressive attacking

Of course, that’ll all depend on Manchester City losing at home to Norwich and Arsenal crumbling at Swansea, but it is possible.

When Sam Allardyce was sacked just minutes after the final whistle of the last game of the 2014/2015 season, not many people thought Slaven Bilic was going to get the job. He seemed passionate and willing, but many preferred West Ham to aim higher up and try to get more ‘experienced’ managers like Rafa Benitez
