This Fullkrug take is the wildest thing ive ever heard. you clearly havent watched more then 2 games of him if this is your opinion. hes a holdup interplay forward, you have pacey players around him, he doesnt have to be speedy... he's physical and an incredible team player. i dont understand how we can see him negatively
@@DylanAddison. i typed half a comment at that point, waited, then heard the second statement and wet off lmao. they arent even remotely similar players to compare
I struggle to understand the negativity towards FULLKRUG before he's even kicked a friggin ball! Give him a chance, at least watch him play 3 or 4 games in a West Ham shift before you write him off! He doesn't need bundles of pace. He is a great finisher and will score goals that Antonio would usually send sailing towards the corner flag. He's gonna score goals this German lad, I think he will be a great signing. More excited about this one than any of the other signings.
I'm buzzin for the Fullkrug signing, he's a solid hard-working striker who'll score a bunch of different types of goals for us for a couple year's while we find the longer term striker. Pace wis, I'm not too worried as we have so much pace around him that'll open space up for him.
Honestly, the guy in yellow opinion means nothing because he doesn’t do his homework and to be honest doesn’t seem to know anything about any football player that doesn’t play in the top four of the Premier League. Rodriguez is a quality player. He would only take five minutes to go on UA-cam and see is a highlight reel. As well as a new German striker that plays upfront for Germany and made the final with a Champions League side. Bruce, your Dortmund….
Heard it all before... Along with all the other 55 strikers we've spent over £335 million on. He's obviously a good player. But a Solanke, a Watkins style of forward is a smarter option. A quick dynamic player would work a lot better under this rigid system that Lopetegui will set up
@@K1NG_EDWARD we don't have 65 mill to spent on solanke unfortunately. Fullkrug scored more goals overall than he did last season against some really big teams in champions league and the euros. Let's give him a chance before we go burning him at the stake a?
@@stormsherrington5242I'm not saying we need to spend 60mill on solanke. I'm saying that type of forward is a smarter choice. Listen fullkrug is a good player. But he's a big lump. I'm a bit bored of these big fridge freezers turning up that can't run in behind or take center halves into places they don't want to be.. If Lopetegui gets his system right, and we have 60%+ of the ball almost every week, then he'll be a huge success for sure.
Fullkrug has been impressive on biggest stage (CL quarters, semis & final) also he isn’t actually slow what so ever, obviously not rapid but hardly a slug
People are only unconvinced by Fullkrug because of his age… He’s stupidly strong, great leap & perfect for holding the ball up for our speedy attackers. If he was a few years younger, you’d all be frothing at the mouth.
@@jamesfitzgerald6636 exactly. If his game wasn’t based on pace in the first place then it doesn’t matter. He’s clever & his hold up play is probably the most important trait.
I'm all in on Füllkrug - he gave a great interview in the official West Ham channel, taking about the weight of the shirt etc... Confident he's gonna prove Frankie wrong..!⚒️
Guys, I think this transfer window only confirms to me that moyes negligently allowed the squad to be depleted and threadbare in the worlds toughest league. Oh, and that’s taking his only signing of Philips in January into account. If moyes was still here Zouma would be captain, Soucek & Philips plus JWP guaranteed their team place. TS hands would be tied in the transfer market too
Don't think long term we will judge Fulkrug on goals in the long term. I suspect he will become a focus point playing with his back to goal and allowing Kudus, Bowen and Summerville to run off him (8 assists last season). I can see him being for West Ham's attacking midfielders what Firminho was for Salah and Mane art Liverpool.
Watched Betis a few times this season Rodríguez caught the eye he is really good player, great vision as well as clever passer of the ball, he has that class where he seems to be in the right place at the right time and is so good at reading the game (always has time, another mark of class). I went to see Pablo a few times, but this guy really stood out.
In his prime, Zouma was a quality player and it’s a shame that his injury has caught up with him. He was a nice guy, not a great captain but we should think well of him and his time at the club.
We feel it is important to strike a balance between youth and experience across the squad, and adding a player with the experience and leadership qualities of Guido will be a real asset to the Club moving forwards. “It’s a busy period in this transfer window, and the Board are continuing to show they’re backing us to bring quality players to West Ham United.” This statement was made by Steidten. Blending in Young and youthful players is the right thing to do. Steidten is a blessing to the team. I would keep JWP and Coufal but i will offlioad Soucek who looks lost in J Lo possesion based football.
I could not disagree more with Frankie about FullKrug, lets see what happens. I think he will play really complimentary with Bowen and Kudus etc. He is a natural fit for them.
ive been looking at west ham pages on fb, a lot of people saying il take him(zouma) to the airport myself.. those arent proper west ham fans.. sure his legs have gone etc etc but the man has been great for us in his time here, footballers cant go on forever.... i wish him all the best and good luck in saudi if he does go ⚒⚒⚒
Apparently Bordeaux have been relegated to league 3 and all players contracts ripped up due to administration. Anyone there we should look at RB and CB plus Midfielder.
Agree with your comment Geo re: GR roll on the World Cup team. We certainly do not discount Bowen's ability despite his limited role with England in the Euros.
Zouma is at the end of his career and maybe still have a few seasons in him with a club who need a solid defender but its time for him to move on now. We are changing as a squad, he doesn´t fit in, thats it.Good luck to the fella, he has been a warrior for us. All the best Zouma
Can see Alvarez dropping to CB as more of a ball playing defender given that Aguerd isnt happy, and Rodriguez playing as holding midfield to be fair. Will be interesting to see come the villa game.
I get a bit annoyed when people label players fast or slow, especially when we haven’t seen them play. Somebody like Pablo Fornals was dreadfully slow but it got overlooked. Noble was roasted for it, even though he was the best passer on the pitch. Danny Ings isn’t rapid but he’s been labelled as somebody who runs like he’s wading through treacle, and it’s just not true. Fullkrug’s game isn’t running but he’s not slow either.
Ooh I respectfully disagree with Frankie on the 10 goals I think if fullkrug stays fit and is selected by the manager with the legs and talent potentially around him I think 10 goals is definitely do able so that's why I'm saying respectfully disagree
Great alternative view and really good to hear it put across in the right way. The last player I had a friendly wager with was Benrahma and that he wouldn't get more than 10 goal contributions in a season. Now me and Geo have decided on if he doesn't get 10 premier league goals I win, if he gets 10 in all competitions bet is void over 10 in the prem geo wins will be fun throughout the season. And let's have it right I hope he has 10 after the first 6 games 😂
I see him similar to Ivan Toney? Under Moyes yeah I'd think he'd struggle but under Lopetegui and the way he likes to play i think he could do the job?
i never thought i would say it but im really looking forward to what team we put out on saturday. after the friendlies in America i was really down, now we might actually do something a fantastic this year.
I think fullkurg will turn out a good signing for us, really looking forward to see him up top for us. Rodriguez good business, seen him a lot in spain... Decent tidy player, nothing special though.
Fullkrug is honestly the closer thing to dean ashton I have seen us linked to. He is not some spoiled youngster who was given opportunities he may or may have not deserved. This guy is humble, hungry, and quietly a cantona like mind
Agreed 100% about Mavropanos, he’s scored more for other clubs while still in the West Ham colours! I hate to be negative, but I watched Mavro pretty closely once Aguerd was sidelined, I don’t think he’s PL quality at all. I’d be delighted to be proven wrong, I’d love to see him gel with Kilman, be able to be part of a potential back free, freeing up Emerson and Coufal to focus on wingback, cos honestly, Coufals defending was beginning to frighten me as well. Other than that, I’d find it hard to complain about anything other than regarding the business done so far. Thanks for all the hard work fellas! COYI ⚒️
didn't Füllkrug score against Newcastle, think he could do well in the Premier league, happy we got him and looking forward to new season, happy with all the signings so far 👍
Alan Irvine remains the ‘invisible man’, there was a little bit of excitement when he scored that impressive goal but we haven’t heard what Lopetegui plans to do with him.
Excited to see fullkrug, his touch and link up play is brilliant. He's gonna be great for bowen and kudus. Also agree about big Mav needs a run in the 1st team.
I understand what Frankie is saying. My view he thrives on balls into the box . But I believe he can hold the ball up and bring Bowen / Kudus / Paqueta into the game . Our money will only take us so far . This is a massive rebuild
I cannot believe we could potentially have all of our incoming transfers done BEFORE a ball is kicked this season. Most definitely not the West Ham way lol😂
@@HammersChat neither did Zouma? Give Ings a free transfer and he'd have the incentive of a signing on bonus somewhere that might make worth his while?
Fullkrug is a unit... He's going to bounce defenders off his chest... I somehow think Mavropanos will shine this season... Another centre half would be nice, but it will still be a 10/10 window if we can get a right back across the line. ⚒️⚒️
Hallk is a target man for team to play off. He explained perfectly about not being an Antonio Running Back. He will require good ball to produce 14 - 16 goals in da prem.
I do agree with moving on Zouma and Soucek but sometimes you have to be careful not to clear out the heart and soul of the club all at once - retaining the culture is crucial too.
I have a question geo , now that we have different tactics and exiting players would you go to the stadium to see the game ?, I’m not saying all but some
I went under Moyes anyway. I’ve never missed a game due to tactics and style. I’ll go when I can but this season is pretty much a write off due to my personal life. So to answer, no more than I would if Moyes was manager
I thought that about the World Cup winner line but then cast my mind back and it’s better than signing boys that have played at a World Cup we have signed and bigged up previously. I’m thinking boys like Pablo Barrera and Ennerdale Valencia 😂
I haven't been to the London Stadium for quite some time. During the few times that I have been there were always "fans" who were shouting abuse at the team from the start of the game. Madness as far as I am concerned. You get behind the team whatever. They hear the abuse and it does affect them.
Franky your idea of needing pace as a striker to succeed in the prem is a fallacy considering one of the people you mentioned, harry kane. If you're a good striker and have the right teammates you will succeed.
Frankly makes a lot of fair points, however the Harry Kane one is right out of left field for me!… He averaged more or less 30 goals a season in the PML, that’s not a player that struggles when it comes to the crunch . Goal rate of 1 in 2 vs the big six in 81 appearances with 9 assists shows it !! But everyone is entitled to their opinion of course 👍
Still not forgiven him for the euro final at Wembley 😂🤣 I guess what I am trying to say is Kane managed 36 goals last season, Fulkrug got 12. The premier league is a tougher league so I don't feel he gets 10+ goals but as I say I'd love to be proven wrong. Hope he bangs in 10 in the first 6 games and I have to transfer Geo over a bullseye
I'm with Frankie, I would give this window a 6. Summerville looks good, but other than that, Killman we overpaid for, Guilherme is unproven, & the rest just adds to us having one of the oldest squads in the league.
Its amusing listening to people complaining about the age of Fullkrug and the lack of sell on value. We have lost over £100m on transfers over the last decade, I would rather have someone who should be a good professional and then retire, than spending big on youth and then selling for little.
Curious to know from Franky what window of ours was a 10/10. Make that a window over 8/10 in case a 10/10 doesn’t exist which is likely imo. I also don’t think a window can be rated until a season is over. Anyhow, Franky, which windows were more highly rated than this one?
listening to fullkrug and knowing what his work rate is. hes probably the best #9 since ashton i suspect he might get 10-15 goals but also 10-15 assists.
I can't help but think back to when both Lesley Kind and Paul McGrath were in the later stages of their careers. Their knees were also shot yet they were able to perform at a superb standard right til the end. Zouma has been great on occasion, but just not the player he was
Always sad when the body says time has caught up.
Wish Zouma all the best and good luck for his future.
AND HE CAN KILL AS MANY CATS AS HE LIKES OUT THERE

Surely Guilherme on the bench against Villa, but not Summerville, Geo? I'm looking forward to seeing Summerville, Kudus and Bowen ripping it up.

I haven't been to the London Stadium for quite some time. During the few times that I have been there were always "fans" who were shouting abuse at the team from the start of the game. Madness as far as I am concerned. You get behind the team whatever. They hear the abuse and it does affect them.
Agree, but it was no different at the Boleyn
@@jonkernow4477 True although back when I stood in the North Bank in the days of Alvin Martin and Tony Gale (I'm old) I don't recall so much of it.
Franky your idea of needing pace as a striker to succeed in the prem is a fallacy considering one of the people you mentioned, harry kane. If you're a good striker and have the right teammates you will succeed.
Geo, I would have thought Kurt would have been better off going to Cat-ar
That is because three is no David moyes
We loss yet another captain’ we need really good leadership next season
Frankly makes a lot of fair points, however the Harry Kane one is right out of left field for me!… He averaged more or less 30 goals a season in the PML, that’s not a player that struggles when it comes to the crunch . Goal rate of 1 in 2 vs the big six in 81 appearances with 9 assists shows it !! But everyone is entitled to their opinion of course 👍
Still not forgiven him for the euro final at Wembley 😂🤣 I guess what I am trying to say is Kane managed 36 goals last season, Fulkrug got 12. The premier league is a tougher league so I don't feel he gets 10+ goals but as I say I'd love to be proven wrong. Hope he bangs in 10 in the first 6 games and I have to transfer Geo over a bullseye
I'm with Frankie, I would give this window a 6.
Summerville looks good, but other than that, Killman we overpaid for, Guilherme is unproven, & the rest just adds to us having one of the oldest squads in the league.
Its amusing listening to people complaining about the age of Fullkrug and the lack of sell on value.
We have lost over £100m on transfers over the last decade, I would rather have someone who should be a good professional and then retire, than spending big on youth and then selling for little.
It will be a shock if he passes the medical. Should've let him go last summer as he is one of the worst captains.
Curious to know from Franky what window of ours was a 10/10. Make that a window over 8/10 in case a 10/10 doesn’t exist which is likely imo. I also don’t think a window can be rated until a season is over. Anyhow, Franky, which windows were more highly rated than this one?
Agree with you here. It was other people saying it was a 10/10 and very hard to judge until end of the season
What do you think our best previous window had been? Not calling anyone out, I’m just curious.
@@grelch 15/16 the following season was the best ever for me
@@frankiegoodman7308 The Nordveit one?
listening to fullkrug and knowing what his work rate is. hes probably the best #9 since ashton i suspect he might get 10-15 goals but also 10-15 assists.
European football is on the cards again
yeah, just need some patience, going to take a while to get things running smoothly, especially for the hammers with 4 years of moyes muscle memory
@@elduderino7767I agree, I want lopetegui to succeed and that might not happen straight away
Valued option frankly I hope your wrong not in a nasty way
Tbf I think Frankie hopes he’s wrong too
I can't help but think back to when both Lesley Kind and Paul McGrath were in the later stages of their careers.
Their knees were also shot yet they were able to perform at a superb standard right til the end.
Zouma has been great on occasion, but just not the player he was
He will get another 3 years in a less intensive Saudi league with a less intensive schedule
