For all of West Ham’s relative success so far in the 2023/24 campaign, there remain an issue with some players.
David Moyes is never going to please all of his players and, to be honest, if he was then he clearly isn’t doing his job properly.
Whatever people think about the Scot’s dour demeanour, the fact is that he’s one of West Ham’s most successful managers in history, so if he’s making a judgment call on a player, he should be afforded the respect that his record deserves.
That applies to both incoming and outgoing players, and one who could be on the move has an interested party who wants to get a deal over the line in January.
According to El Sevillista, La Liga outfit, Sevilla, want to speed up the process of brining Pablo Fornals to the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan.
Their offer, so the report indicates, might be ‘negligible’ as far as West Ham are concerned, but with the player’s contract apparently up in 2024 in any event, the Andalusians will be hopeful that a deal can be struck.
Fornals can walk away from the east Londoners for nothing next summer so any offer that comes West Ham’s way in January could actually be said to be handing them a small profit.
They’ve shown no indication of extending Fornals’ deal so it would make sense to cash in if the player is open to the move too.
Moyes isnt always right. Weve lost thousands on strikers that seemed to have gone to pot the when sold got form back. Or players that scored & made goals pushed aside to let others go forward that hardly hit the back of the net. Funny that now hes gone the goals are flowing.( Diplomatic) Hes not right every time & when hes wrong its costly. Look at Antonio hes not an out n out striker,but hes blamed every time he misses. Its moyes fault but abtonio gets the stick. Not good for his mentall well being. Still moyes has him playing up front on his own. I know hes got us the cup etc but how high up the prem we could we have been last season with a striker up front & antonio.His faults would be forgoten if only he bought a stricker & played 2 up front.
