Why West Ham MUST invest in a decent striker this summer
Posted on 14 May 2014.
As most of you already know, West Ham have gone without a decent striker for the majority of the season.

Ravel tells the fans what they want to hear
Posted on 06 May 2014.
Let’s face it, we all want Ravel Morrison in claret and blue next season. He’s the best young player we’ve seen take the first-team by storm in many, many years and it’d be ridiculous if we were to allow him to leave so soon.
