More gloomy news ahead of Spurs clash

|

West Ham look set to go into action against Spurs again without Angelo Ogbonna and Seb Haller.

The central defender is still recovering from what has been described as ” a knock” whilst the striker has been sidelined with a groin injury.

It’s bad news for David Moyes who seems to have no faith in Fabian Balbuena meaning that once again Declan Rice’s midfield presence is presumably likely to be missing.

And up front we have a real problem of having NO replacement for the near £50 million signing from the Bundesliga.

Youngster Xande Silva was included in today’s match day squad and Albian Ajetilooks to have no chance of figuring at White Hart Lane.

A Hammers insider explained to CandH: “There looks little chance that either will make it I’m afraid.”

For now we are left looking at the performances of such as Villa who we can only hope are beaten up by Chelsea tomorrow.

    We truly are a great club relying on chelsea tomorrow. Why is it I want more from my football club than most years a relegation battle ? Must be me expecting a modicum of at least – hey average that would be good !

    Is it to early to rise the white flag now??? This shows why we need new owners who will buy more than one top striker, still let’s look on the bright side all those players who don’t give a **** will bugger of next season and maybe we can build a team like Wolves or Sheffield United.

    No target man again.We never looked like scoring today which is hardly surprising against 3 central defenders.Would it be wishful thinking to give Xande Silva a run out.?

    yesterday was so predictable. gonna get beat by both spurs & Chelsea so we have to rely on others cause were **** poor since the move we have been like the titanic slowly sinking owners with no ambition to take us anywhere just plod around prem just every season looks like its our time to go down could end up like a Sunderland Coventry notts Forrest sheff wed just not being able to come back up

    We are gone ..can you honestly say we will get anything from spurs or Chelsea…and after yesterday even the teams around us ..we said at the start what will we do if our only striker gets injured..but we did nothing about it….people said Antonio can play there ….no HE CANT…..sorry but to go along with how inept we are on the field, we also have no heart or desire..let’s be honest we are crap in every way ….long Balls galore with no one to hold it up is the first of many wrong things with this team…to be honest players like Anderson and the spoilt kid ,,,you could just tell they dont care because they wont be around when/if we go down …
