Most enjoyable game watched at the OS this season.
Atmosphere was pretty decent too. Nice to see that the BML have found their voice again!

I think that it is worth noting that I thought Fabianski had a decent game. He kept them in it and looked solid IMO.
One to look at if they go down maybe?

I am not saying he would be my ideal signing but I think he is better than Randolf and the owners will not be spending out on anybody decent. We need to be realistic.warp wrote: NO! :shock:

I'd have Fabianski above Adrian and Randy everyday of the week.

Re: West Ham United v Swansea City: Match Thread
i think he's about the same level as randy, no point in spending money and not upgrading.
they guy they had before was good. vorm? where is now?

I think he is better based on what I have seen of him (which admittedly isn't that much).warp wrote:i think he's about the same level as randy, no point in spending money and not upgrading.

Agreed. Despite the Sunderland form, the much disliked Defoe would have had a field day (and certailny would have got a goal or two in our previous 2 games). If, as I've read, he's a free agent this summer an offer of a one year contract would sit very nicely with me.Graza wrote:If we had a functional striker we could have walked that game.

fair enough, i haven't watched much of him either.Coops wrote:I think he is better based on what I have seen of him (which admittedly isn't that much).
it would make more sense to spend a fair bit for significant improvement than have a relatively cheap but marginal one.
but not everyone thinks the same. there are enough superstars in the opposition team anyway...
spurs? ok, forget i asked! :lol:Johnny Byrne's Boots wrote:Picking up a nice wedge sitting on the Spurs bench. Doesn't even have to work for it.
Re: West Ham United v Swansea City: Match Thread
He was man of the match in many news papers on Sunday. Made three very decent saves other than which Swansea go home 4-0 losers instead of 1-0.Coops wrote:I think that it is worth noting that I thought Fabianski had a decent game. He kept them in it and looked solid IMO.

But as for signing him? Not for me, our history of signing keepers should be a sign post, Parkes, Ludo, James, Shaka even Green. We should pay the money for Hart and get in the very best we could afford, it is no position to scavenge.

f*** me the West Ham social media team are milking this win. It's like we won a trophy. Wish they would rein it in a bit.

I rekon we could get begovik easy he would have jumped at a move to b mouth if chelsea would agree to let him go hes wasted at chelsea and a good solid keeper surely a move across to us would suit him and more importantly usOzza wrote:I'd have Fabianski above Adrian and Randy everyday of the week.

Re: West Ham United v Swansea City: Match Thread
I was asking myself the same thing. It felt like a bit "well, here's your 'possible top scorer' and your 'next level international' to go with the rest of the lot you've given me to work with.

Re: West Ham United v Swansea City: Match Thread
Fabianski's positioning is often questionable, I don't think he's much better than Randy and certainly not as good as El Matador.
