West Ham Rumours

04 Feb 2026 19:49:48
SANGANTE is the correct spelling sorry !

04 Feb 2026 19:35:49
NOT a story WH 3 days before-the windows end were a medical away from signing Sangante young Cb from Lehavre

Sullivan changed his mind and pushed for more experience, so. Disasi

Terms et Al, had all been agreed, WH did well to keep this one quiet, however, it's history now, Maybe they will return for him next window?

04 Feb 2026 13:37:39
STORIES just STORIES


Isidor of Sunderland, Neketiah of Palace neither of these players were bid for by WH

TRUE, going back to last August, on Calvert Lewin., WH had first refusal, yes posted it on here

Many on here were against his coming to WH, the player was very keen

He's proved to be worthwhile, he's earning same as. Castellanos, it's all a matter of judgement

04 Feb 2026 18:20:07
Story after story now coming out about defenders and midfielders "WE TRIED" to bring in? Yeah ok, here comes to cover up stories being released by Sullivan and his press Corps to appease the fans.

They had all window to get deals done but its never going to happen if he bids £12m for a player valued at £25m!

Tell us another one. Sooner he sells up the better

03 feb 2026 11:01:42
To be honest with everyone. After watching last night's game, if we can't beat Burnley, you must ask yourself a question; do we deserve to stay up?

They are obviously a lot better at home than they are away. but nevertheless, if we lose on Saturday, forget the mathematical equations, it's all over.

03 Feb 2026 11:54:08
Burnley will want a reaction for that result, expect them to come at us all guns blazing, it’s going to be a tough game.

03 Feb 2026 12:48:15
Every game is tough, WH would.

Expect no different, tell me please, if we can’t bear them., who exactly are we going to beat, it’s clear, we have no squad depth, surely we have no chance.in three of the games left, Against LIverpool, Man Utd Arsenal etc, SO then Are we going to win 7/8 of the remaining 10 games, no way that is EVER going to happen, that’s my reasoning

03 Feb 2026 13:57:00
Far far too negative! We have a great chance to beat Man Utd, they are still shipping goals, Liverpool are flattering to deceive and Arsenal I agree will be difficult.

03 Feb 2026 15:16:20
NOT negative mate realistic is the word, so it’s ok to lose to Burnley and beat those teams, ? Just my opinion

03 Feb 2026 16:12:07
I think we'll beat them all except arsenal

03 Feb 2026 16:45:49
NOW that's what I call OPTIMISM, from a true supporter

I’m nowhere near as optimistic as you are, I hope your right and I’m wrong

Chelsea are several levels above us, we have to accept that, what bothers me, is the way we fell off after 60 minutes, we have a couple of decent midfielders to bring on plus Wilson that’s it, that is what I see as big part of our problem

03 Feb 2026 16:58:03
I don’t think we’ll lose to Burnley ….what’s your point?

03 Feb 2026 17:55:04
I think we just need to stay in touch, Leeds and forest will drop points and become more and more nervous, we are rightly favorites for the last relegation spot and will struggle to stay up i just want the team to go out fighting and if we get a bit of luck with other results we have a chance

03 Feb 2026 18:27:34
My point is we are 6 points adrift, 7 if you include goal averages we might have to get 43/43 points, is it possible, yes, but c, mon is it likely no, the top teams, are levels above us, with big squads

I sincerely hope I’m wrong, but our inability to defend, is more than concerning, that’s our problem

03 Feb 2026 20:05:25
In spite of Saturdays result we have hit a bit of form. Our next 5 games are Burnley, Man Utd, Bournemouth, Liverpool and Fulham imo all games in our current form we can get points from. We also have Wolves to play again and a 6 pointer with Leeds.

It might not take 43 points, that’s more than it has been over previous seasons. I think Leeds have had their run and Palace in disarray. Until its mathematically impossible I’m keeping faith

03 Feb 2026 20:41:40
I’m pleased to read that!

04 Feb 2026 07:03:50
Im with Dabber. There is only 6 points between us and leeds. Leeds form has dropped off and they got a bad run of fixtures ahead whereas our form has picked up, we got some very winnable fixtures coming up and leeds still need to come to us

Im very optimistic as long as nuno goes for the jugular when we have a lead and stops trying to defend what we have

04 Feb 2026 07:11:40
My only worry is that the squad is desperately thin

04 Feb 2026 11:24:47
That’s a major part of our problem,

04 Feb 2026 13:05:08
Agreed, a few injuries and we can forget it

04 Feb 2026 15:03:35
Mac3, since when has our current Damager gone for the Jugular? He doesn’t want to win games, managers are supposed to learn by mistakes, this one hasn’t, 👎👎⚒⚒🙊🙊

04 Feb 2026 18:23:10
Agreed Chelmsford, i'm hoping he learns by his mistakes. If nothing else, we also need to recoup the goal difference and if we are sitting back it won't happen

Having said that, if our defenders could actually defend, he may play more attacking football. One can only hope

04 Feb 2026 20:30:29
Mac3, he’s a bloody slow learner, unfortunately he can’t change his boring playing tactics, said it a number of times before on here, my son in law is from Nottingham but is down here in Chelmsford for 25 years, says was exactly the same for Forest and he and lots of fans hated him for it, so never going to change Mac👎👎⚒⚒⚒

02 Feb 2026 21:07:11
What's happened to the Disasi deal? thought you only got 2 hours after the deal sheet went in to get the deal done?

02 Feb 2026 17:20:52
Few facts of interest, NO bid was ever made for either John Egan or Hayden Hackney
Noble DID recommend NNADI to WH as well as MATHIAS DELORGE of Gent

He was ignored on both, why waste money on him chasing around, looking at players, that apparently were never even considered

Noble will say nothing he's on 50 k a week, but he must be thinking, what' is going on here!

The answer is with Sullivan Your wasting your time, you can promote any names all will be ignored

Clubs a complete mess

02 Feb 2026 17:30:53
Agreed joyful. And we blame nuno?

Only one person to blame gor the entire mess

02 Feb 2026 17:37:05
Sad really isn't it? Maybe mother nature just needs to do it's thing re Sullivan. It's like torture living under his ownership

02 Feb 2026 18:09:04
If by some miracle we do get disasi, and we can get him fit, he could be just what we need. Whilst not comfortable passing the ball about, he is a solid defender who commits himself and works hard.

02 Feb 2026 18:25:24
Mac, you are wrong. The entire blame does not rest on Nuno’s shoulders. I think we all know at whose door the blame lies for how bad the club is run. However, Sullivan did not select Saturday’s team, nor direct the tactics or make the team changes. He selected the dumbo who did.

02 Feb 2026 18:56:47
Tin. Have u thought we've had 3 decent managers this season who couldn't get a tune out of this lot. Yes, nuno has made some bad decisions, but he has finally got us playing with some conviction.

Let's not be blinded by the defeat at Chelsea, if tobido had scored it would've been game over. Small margins lie between victory and defeat in the Premier league and as we all know, when you got your opponents by the throat, you have to take the chances to kill them off.

To sum up, although he has dropped some clangers, there is finally a ray of hope we could actually get out of this mess.

My problem is that even if ge does, I fear we will be having the same conversation every season until this board has gone.

Burnley is the acid test. Lose that and its over

02 Feb 2026 19:04:51
Sullivan, Potter and Nuno all equally to blame for this current mess. We have lost 18 points from winning positions this season. Those 18 points would have put us in 7th on 38 points! Sullivan wouldn’t put his hand in his pocket for Cresswell etc and Nuno keeps trying to protect leads with Kilman in the back 4! Both are B*ll*nds obviously as is Potter!

02 Feb 2026 19:28:22
Sullivan is ultimatl6 to blame but that doesn't mean Nuno shouldn't shoulder his share of the blame aswell terrible team selections, tactics and substitutions throwing away points are totally on him

02 Feb 2026 19:41:03
Even by our usual disastrous windows this has to be one of the worse. Or at least the end part. The inability to get in a 2 half decent CBs and a creative midfielder is a joke and the fact we seem to have got one CB in on loan who by all accounts the manager doesn’t rate and it seems that the player didn’t want to come here and his ability and fitness is questionable at best.

Obviously I hope our worries about his ability are unfounded and he rediscovers his early form with Monaco which has been said to be decent

02 Feb 2026 21:51:34
Dabber I’m sorry mate but you are are being far too fair to Sullivan there giving him equal billing for our current predicament. The whole reason we are in this mess ALL leads back to Sullivan and Brady’s door. And the way this club is still run like an unprofessional outfit from the 80s. The chairman that buys the players. That hires poor manager after poor manager and also didn’t get shot of Moyes after the euro win. Where has all the money gone? How much money are people like Brady earning.

He operates in the transfer window like Arthur Daley.
As much as Killman has been terrible he isn’t to blame for everything. And as he has been that bad why does Sullivan not replace him. Nuno has cost us points and Potter was a turgid manager out of his depth and Loppy was totally unsuitable to this club Sullivan thought he knew best with all these appointments. Our club has become a laughing stock due to shoddy little person

03 Feb 2026 11:41:04
Fair enough Hammer-D mate, you are right Sullivan is the main culprit and is worse than a B*ll*nd, he’s a nasty, narcissistic con man! I had real hope that Nuno could turn things around when he took over but I just don’t have time for somebody who makes the same mistake over and over. Our defenders can't defend under pressure including the goalkeeper and yet Nuno invites that unwanted pressure onto them by trying to protect leads. As for Kilman unless Steidten is a complete amateur there must be a half decent player in there but he’s obviously devoid of any confidence, he even made a signal to heaven when he came on on Saturday which I’ve never seen before.

I’m generally a positive thinker and still believe we can just about escape being relegated but only because the forwards and midfield have hit form. I think that is down to Nuno’s new number 2, an attack minded coach. I want us to stay up because relegation could mean massive problems for us as a club however whatever speeds up the demise of the poison dwarf and his sidekicks also appeals. Sorry for the long winded response and appreciate your comments as always HD

03 Feb 2026 13:31:19
Hey DH don’t worry about the long winded texts, I’m a specialist. 😂
Your points are very valid I’m similar to you in your opinion of Nuno as I didn’t see him as a long term solution but did think he could keep us up. It’s now looking very doubtful and h[e has to take responsibility for that because of his horrendous substitutions.i feel he has done some good stuff and if it is down to him the change to a more attacking style then good on him. I suspect it may be the new coach that has done this. Because this upturn in style has only happened since he has been here.

I think weather we stay up or drop Nuno needs to go and I would take a chance on the Spanish coach to take over. I’m sure he has nothing to do with the substitutions. Killman is zero in confidence he didn’t do anything particularly bad the other night (nor did the rest of the defence) but he understandably looks nervous. But here is where the poisoned dwarf is ultimately to blame for continually having a stupidly small squad and no defence alternative apart from bargain basement options.

03 Feb 2026 17:01:37
Sorry Dabber meant DH not HD

03 Feb 2026 17:34:40
You’re right HD about the new coach, Paco Jemez, apparently recognised as an attack minded coach and actually fell out with Nuno over one of his substitution decisions a couple of weeks ago.

As our defence minded head coach is not learning and our owners haven’t helped them by buying any meaningful better alternatives I’d like to see Jemez given a crack at it ……at least it would be fun 😁

02 Feb 2026 10:10:01
Nnadi signed for Marseille for 6m euros.

Disasi coming in unfit, not trained and not played for 6 months.

Still no sign of keeper or midfielder? 9 hours left for one of the most important windows in recent history

02 Feb 2026 11:27:58
Ngolo kante signed for 5m euros to fenerbahce.

02 Feb 2026 09:40:29
Disasi hasn't played for 6 months and isn't training. We need a CB who can start now and the hit the ground running

Kinski will not be joining full stop

01 Feb 2026 18:32:52
West Ham will not sign Taylor Harwood-Bellis. Negotiations have broken down.

Would we make another run at Dier? What about Egan on deadline day?

Let's not forget we need a Paqueta replacement!

02 Feb 2026 08:00:32
Eric Dier is injured, with an unknown return date

02 Feb 2026 08:29:04
Stefan Ortega has joined Nottingham Forest on loan. so our goalkeeping options are one fewer. Got to be honest, I'd rather two centre backs and a central midfielder in today, but in truth I don't see a lot happening at all. Maybe, just maybe, Disasi to join on loan.

We should have been all over the Gomes deal from Marseille, but he is joining Wolves.

02 Feb 2026 08:53:08
Disasi on loan is all we can expect today i think

02 Feb 2026 12:29:39
Agreed, a sure sign of our ambition!

01 Feb 2026 15:00:27
Angel gomes to wolves

01 Feb 2026 15:51:28
With an option as well for about 6-7m, he's better than that polish fella and the nigerian we were linked to, he'd actually add something different to our midfield and could provide creativity if fernandes was to get injured. We are ran by clowns though so not surprised we aren't all over this

Apparently they are close on Adam Armstrong, good striker for the championship, preparing to come straight back up while we stagnate and leave things to the last minute.

01 Feb 2026 17:12:33
The "west ham way"

01 Feb 2026 17:16:58
We were heavily linked with Gomez last season and pre-season. The fact that we have let this one go is an absolute joke. I’m beginning to think Sully wants us to be relegated. I’m struggling to understand what he can get out of relegation apart from being much poorer which is all he worries about.

Although it is just an example how much of a short sighted and ignorant fool he is

01 Feb 2026 18:22:22
There is simply no long term plan or vision. Its always the same, every window

01 Feb 2026 18:26:04
Problem we have now, as always, is that we've left it so late, any team we get a player from need to get a replacement
