Good to see you back Geo! Congratulations again!
Hurray, rejoice for the dream team is once more ! Good to see you back Geo
It feels like Danny Welbeck has been playing top-flight footie since 1989. He still looks decent most of the times I've seen him recently.
You two complement each other tremendously need more of you two together
Awesome to see you both together. Here's hoping we pick up more points and keep the run going.
The ultimate double act are back! Great to see you both together again! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Really made my day seeing you at home and a bit more rested Geo. hope all is well in the Geo household
I just came home to do the online store orders and this video mate, we’re still staying at the hospital, am back with the girls now!
@ I hope everything works out and you all get home for Christmas. Your looking a lot more yourself though so that in itself if good.
Really good to see you back geo hope all is well
Going alright mate, day by day and all that
Great to see you back Geo! Big congrats 🎉
Great to see you back Geo. Hope you’re all OK ⚒️
Love this channel
Good to see you back geo
Hope all is well
Great to see you home geo. ❤️❤️
Back in hospital now but it was nice for a few hours 😂
Great to see you back Geo! Congrats and wishing you and the clan a great 1st Christmas. ⚒️
Thanks mate, if we get home for Christmas then that would help!
Welcome back Geo! Hope you and the family are all okay mate! Merry Xmas to you both and hopefully have a couple great performances/results to talk about over the festive period!
Toe-di-blow 🥊
Welcome back Geo, congrats mate⚒️
The dynamic duo are back :)
No Geo, was like having fish n chips with salt but no vinegar, the sense that something was missing.
Good to have you back Geo. Hope all is well and let’s hope we can get the 3 points Saturday. COYI ⚒️
Great to have you back Geo, congratulations to you and the wife ❤
Thank you, Ben
Every West Ham fan around the globe wants to see Kudus have a go in the 10. Just a shame that booth the previous and current manager/ coach hated/ hates that idea...
Why not 9? Surely he could shrug off defenders like Antonio can 👀
@ I’d support that too. Just don’t play him on the left all the time.
I believe what David Moyes said if you don’t run, you don’t play,, he doesn’t get back in defence quick enough,,
@@peterjones2903 all the more reason to play him as a 10 or 9 than on the left.
Oooh, really nice to see you back at Hammers Chat Central, Geo. All the best mate.
Great video
Agree, need to give Fulkrug a start, but need to get crosses into him rather pass back to Fabianski to aimlessly hoof it forward. Fulkrug needs to win the high balls when our defence resorts to long balls - he didn't win any aerial challenges when he came on against Bournemouth, something I thought would be his strength.
Lovely to see you back, you have been greatly missed. The preview is always my favourite video and you two have made my day. We are going to beat Brighton.
Gonzo has been great holding everything down but it’s awesome having the team back together! Peanut butter and jelly 😂😂😂
Yeah Geo, hope you're all ok and Mrs Geo and little Grace. Hope you guys have a good Xmas.
My mate is currently twisting my arm to go to the game....just wish I was more excited about going to the London stadium so I didn't have these conundrums?!
If she’s home for Christmas then that’ll help but at the moment it looks like a hospital lunch for Xmas dinner 😂
@@HammersChat Sorry to hear that Geo. As long as she's ok, that's the main thing.
If ever there was an example of the pair being greater than the sum of the parts its you guys. Welcome back Geo. I that your baby andvwife recover well. All the best for 2025
Great to see you back Geo, I trust your daughter is now on the mend. 👍😀⚒⚒⚒
Congratulations and welcome back Geo ⚒️🫧
Kudus through the middle, Bowen on the right, Fulkrug up front and Sommerville on the left
Loppy the blind man wont do that
Congratulations Geo' 😊
Good to see you back, Geo! Hope all is well with the little one and massive congratulations to you and the missus !
Doing alright thank you!
Glad youre back geo batman and robin the great duo . That front 4 is what everybody as wanted we would atleast outscore them but lop is not going to do it but would be great if he does.
Top class co host! Brilliant!😅 But how come there was no mention of Gonzo replacing Geo?!
Hiya lads great show its so nice to see geo back with gonzo. I'm not sure if loppy will be at the game as he's dad passed away and I think our players need to pull up there socks and go at Brighton to get the win for loppy and paqueta looks close so let's see if he has a great game but I want to see Orford or guilherme get a chance to start as no soler we can't keep playing soucek
Nice point Gonzo but not sure when we chasing points academy players are way forward. Once we have a solid team then yeah get the kids in
Do you think our defence would be better organised if Kilman had the armband? I wish Dawson was still available at RCH.
No because I recall plenty Wolves fans saying he needs a louder centre back partner next to him!
We always seem to suffer against the teams that are struggling, how many times have we heard it’s the best time to play this team and ooopppssss
We can't rely on Fabianski every game, our defense puts him under way too much pressure. I've got no confidence we will score either. Having said that I'm going for a 1-3 Brighton win.
Good to seee your mug, Geo. Congrats to you and Lady Geo. As always, Brighton will be tough. Hoping for a draw and a performance like the first half against Bournemouth.
I have to agree with Gonzo. I think we’ll finish below the teams above us and above the teams below us. 🤔
Hope the little one can be home soon and we get some points on Saturday as a bonus
Now that would be perfect
Great to see you back Geo, hope baby and Mrs Geo are all ok 👍
I'd go 5-3-2
Fabianski
Coufal, AWB, Casey, Killman, Emerson
Souceck, Alvarez, Paqueta
Kudus, Bowen
Can always change it if not working, with Summerville, Scarles and Fullkrug to come on
Awesome to see you Geo, hope you and the family are well.
I am jealous of Brighton too. However if we some how win the next 2 games and the club are smart in January we could some how not be in a bad situation. Also whilst I feel sorry for loppy, if his situation has been playing massively on his mind (which is fully understandable) that could have impacted us a lot. However now do you think he could come back with a clearer head with out it hanging over him which could lead to the team picking up? I'm not convinced but curious to see what happens next
I think we can get something from this game. A point at least.
COYI ⚒️
I agree with Gonzo I think we have rode our luck a little over the last few games with decisions and how many opportunities we give away.
Brighton aren’t on form so see us getting a point, Southampton aren’t poor so think we will win regardless but unless we tighten up Liverpool will embarrass us.
Which one of you wears the trousers? Or do you both have one leg in the same pair?
Why do we care if Bournemouth took 19 shots and 11 were blocked and 4 were off target? A blocked shot is a sign of good defending, not necessarily a sign of being under the kosh. Yes we need to improve our defense but we really do need to stop quoting blocked shots as shots. At Leicester we had 31 shots 😂. But something like 9 or 10 that weren’t blocked. It’s silly and it distorts the truth.
Me too I’m very jealous and envious of Brighton football club. I like their players and coaches and the hierarchy running it. If only whufc! Oh well
With Mavropanos not playing well against Bournemouth and Todibo apparently injured I would start Casey with Kilman against Brighton ⚒️
The middle 6 players in the west ham line up must be one of the slowest in prem history
They got done the things right. first comes the football as a team game. And once the system is up and running they can sell.⚒⚒⚒
Tony Bloom and David Sullivan are both untouchable. Great for Brighton fans, disasterous for West Ham fans
West Ham v Brighton- The Chris Houghton derby
The George Parris El Classico.
Hi Geo , how is Grace and mrs Geo.Are they home as well 🤞
No mate, don’t have a date - we’re currently staying at the hospital, I just came home to do all the online store orders and this video, back with my girls now!
@@HammersChat wish you and your girls all the best 🤞
You boys should get letters written about eachother and read them out on air. Hope all is well Geo
They had a crappy stadium that was an Athletics /Hockey stadium with a leaky roof the poor luvies.
I simply can't imagine what that would be like but it sounds simply ghastly.
Brighton.
Didn't we here all the same stuff said about Charlton Athletic? Anyone remember them?
3-1 Irons.
Orford to start .Why not?
Geo, just wait until they put 4 past us 😂😂
Why do we have to play Brighton and Hove? We can't beat one team, let alone two.
Anything Dino’s does turns to a goal conceded! Todibo in.
No more Mavahopless
Lop will put soucek in at number 10 role kudus left wing no way will he drop Soucek. Under Moyes we waited for Kudus to play no. 10 never happened we are still asking for him to play that role. Ain't going to happen
Im not even a west ham fan and ive been shouting for Füllkrug to get a start. Seeing Julen starting bowen or danny ings as a 9 is just baffling for me. Bowen is best on the right and Füllkrug is better than ings. Antonio is his only legit competition for that position. I hope Antonio recovers quick 🙏
I don’t know if it’s just me but why do people say how good Brighton are they always end up in mid table and haven’t won a cup
Because we are talking about now, not 15 years ago.
@@HammersChat Patrick is talking about now, not 15 years ago.
@@HammersChat I am talking about now I just don’t think they are as good as people think they are
If Geo wants a top class co-host I understand Greg Wallace might be available. Like-for-like?
Its not en sisco its en see so 👍
4-2 to Brighton.
Put some money on it
@@ipanemakid3058 I have!
Top players won't be happy with 14th they will want out. And top players won't want to join us. Under Sullivan we have no ambition.
2-1 West Ham
4 goals against if dino plays.
Gonzo! Orford will not be seen this season. You pick him every week.
It’s what he wants to see, not what he thinks Lopetegui will do.
@ true. Sorry
No need to apologise mate, you weren’t rude!
It was taken off in the 60th minute with the under 21s and he was our best player, I have a sneaky suspicion he plays
Welbeck is injured and not good at defence recently. This game will be a draw
And they've still one zero trophies...
Mediocre at best. Climging on at the end wnd couod easily have lost.
Not enough energy and a clear lack of effective coaching, motivation and tactics.
Not good enough
I'm in the minority that isn't jealous of Brighton because their model is not a sustainable one long term. If you have to rely on transfers working out most times then one day it's going to go very wrong a couple of years in a row and they'll be done. I respect what they've done but they have to use that model because they've only got 12 fans. For us we need to do some of what they do but keep our best players.
No chance on earth Orford plays ahead of Paqueta
You say Lucas has to go up a level or two, Orford needs to go up ten levels
The constant ‘Fullkrug wants to go home’ narrative is boring now. The whole thing about West Ham wanting to sign a world class striker is just stating the obvious. Are they supposed to say they want to sign another Iain Dowie?
27 million EUROS. Stop peddling the twenty seven million quid trope, he cost nearer £20m than £27m
Nobody is saying he will play ahead of him
Sky Sports say it’s 27 point 5 million POUNDS.
It could be possibly you are incorrect and it’s not a narrative.
