Trevor Twohig > With the news of ‘Lockdown’ coming to an end, fans are poised to return to football if not this season then certainly for the next. What have we learnt about this exile from the game? As a West Ham fan, the end of a season can often be bleak; the summer months…

Jonathan Lee > A valiant effort in defeat which proved we really have a team that can fight, but also show quality. A lot of pride from watching us take on a team packed with superstars and the champions-in-waiting. Randolph – 6 a late replacement for Fab and tweaked a recent thigh injury in second…

Neil Shaw-Smith > Jesse Lingard deals with the fluffy stuff! The tricks, clever runs, elaborate long balls and tiktok worthy celebrations give you that warm fuzzy feeling. But unlike those of similar calibre, he doesn’t easily tumble to the floor and fold.  Lingard has been through a lot since he burst on the scene with…

Harry Fitzpatrick > Since Manchester City’s extraordinary run of form, many pundits are calling the Premier League title race all but over; however they refuse to totally rule out their neighbours Manchester United. With a 10-point lead over United and 13 games left, it is far from over mathematically and City still need plenty more…

@Denniswatling > One of the biggest takeaways that has apparently gone under the radar in our great seasons is that Lukasz Fabianski is back to his best. For any of you who watch our watchalongs on the Youtube channel will know I affectionately refer to him as “The Red Wall” whenever he makes one of…

Mitchell Hall > Michail Antonio achieved the form of his life after the Premier League restart last year, scoring for fun, including a four-goal haul away at Norwich to seal their fate. Since then Antonio has been predictably hampered by injuries, but whilst his fitness wavered his on pitch form held steady, with another goal…

George Marchant > What a time it is to be a West Ham fan. Fourth in the league, quality players in the squad and just a general good feeling amongst the club. Our win at Tottenham was a massive one. It showed that when the pressure is up against the players, they can still go…

Trevor Twohig > It has long been my personal belief that Declan Rice will be the next England captain to lift the World Cup. People thought I was mad for saying this many moons ago, but now the possibility doesn’t seem so ridiculous.  No-one likes to see managers getting the boot, especially young English ones,…

Jonathan Lee > Always nice to beat that lot ‘up north’ but how hard was that last half hour to watch! Ultimately, the result means everything and a wonderful and hard earned three points. COYI! Fabianski – 8 another decent performance including an outstanding diving save to keep Kane out and one important collection on…

Trevor Twohig > In the pursuit of a decent storyline, the average football fan hears a few tall tales over the course of a season. This can often be multiplied in the case of the happy Hammers for a variety of reasons. Takeover talk at the end of a disappointing transfer window, the installation of…
