Gokhan Tore has made the sort of West Ham start nightmares are made from and is regularly getting booed from the terraces.
Here ClaretandHugh Facebook members @https://www.facebook.com/groups/363174467150521/ have their say on the loanee from Turkey.
O Slav is not the only West Ham manager to persist with no hopers. Carlton Cole and Boa – Morte come to mind. They were played game after game yet produced little or nothing and Tore and Zaza are in the same mould. Slav needs to take this on board and start introducing the youngsters who will provide energy and enthusiasm which is severely lacking.
O I can’t get over the legnths We Went to get him ….
I can’t get over the tweets I remember urging the management to get the deal done. Those ‘experts’ are pretty quiet now. The same happened with Zaza. If it’s possible I would send him back in January and Zaza as well
O I think Slav was expecting a run in the Europa and sign players who are sub standard this summer to many midfield who don’t work back to defend but I believe
O We also need to spend a bit of cash in January with AC coming back and hopefully Sakho as well I would concentrate on the defence
O I don’t believe he was bought for Europe. Remember the we must have him hype and regardless of Europe wasn’t he in the team on Saturday? The worst player I’ve seen in the shirt
O The damning thing for Slav is that we chased him for ages.
O It’s what worried me, weak players being put with stronger players. , yes I know it has to happen. But we are playing too many at one time, and it’s not working. Saying that I believe in Slaven.
O The guy is unbelievably bad. How he’s getting more chances in the team than Fegouhli is beyond me. Fegouhli hasn’t had a great start but clearly wants to improve and wants to put a shift in for the team wheras Tore is poor in every sense of the word.
O Ask Bilic – Tore was 100% his signing and cant have just been brought in for Europa League (which I still believe we had no intention of taking seriously, or staying in). I watched Tore closely on Saturday – looks small, no pace, touch and passing was poor, looked hesitant. Has all the attributes of a player who’s confidence is shot and with our crowd having turned on him I’m struggling to see a way back now.
O Feghouli in the starting eleven instead of Tore yesterday would’ve made the difference I think.
O Where was Lanzini? I have to believe that there was a reason for him to be left out of the first half. If not Bilic has lost me again. Maybe Sam or Mark Curtis were behind the deal? 😉
O Total rubbish some one needs to look hard at themselves coz we brought utter crap loans cheap bargain basement players so much for on the up !!!!!!
No excuse for booing your own player. Hardly going to help him play better is it.
Well we have them now so we have to find out one way or another what they have too offer.The jurys still out for me on many of them.They need time to adapt to the PL if they can before i will judge them.
Rick it isnt just him,the whole bleedin’ site is a cesspit of negativity.They p1ss me off big time.
Got to agree with you Tone,you just can’t give a total thumbs down yet.Tore is trying too hard and some media “experts” are writing some of them off before they’ve kicked a ball.COYI
I agree with Tore it looks highly unlikely that he will come good, as for the other signings I think they have a lot of promise and some need to be seen playing in a proper West Ham side that fights for each other and creates lots of chances before they should be judged.
Bloody hell some of them make Sam Allardyces pet cat on Wetpants seem almost cheerful lool
Is that ‘believe’ tattooed on his arm? Well I believe the ‘jury’ is right, he’s proved himself to be totally out of his depth and Slav’s judgement has got to be questioned!
