Don’t Panic…. So with 3 Premier League, and 4 Europa League games played, West Ham United must be welcoming the International break for once. Three wins and three defeats, but it’s fair to say, we have all been feeling a bit deflated with our two defeats in the League, and the terrible exit in the Europa Laegue qualifier the other night. So I thought I would take a closer look at our start to the season, to see if…

The midfielder’s compelling statistics that have made him central to West Ham’s blueprint and also add up for England’s Sam Allardyce are no fluke If Michail Antonio feels a little nervous in the company of his England team-mates , he should treat Wayne Rooney and friends to a wonderful ice-breaking anecdote.
