I suspect the arrivals and departures at Upton Park haven’t quite finished yet. It looks as though the Nicky Shorey move is being revived and I would still bet money that Kieron Dyer will be here by the end of the week, with the Newcastle chairman having a bit of egg on his face. So, what do we think Alan Curbishley’s strongest Eleven is – and which team will he start with against Manchester City next Saturday. Here’s my guess…
Robert Green
George McCartney/Nicky Shorey
Matthew Upson
Anton Ferdinand
Lucas Neill
Mark Noble
Scott Parker (if fit) or Lee Bowyer
Freddie Ljuneberg
Luis Boa Morte
Dean Ashton
Craig Bellamy
Subs
Richard Wright
James Collins
Danny Gabbidon
Matthew Etherington
Bobby Zamora
What do you reckon?



I’m well aware that a top ten isn’t likely for us this year – so be it. My club is my club.
You don’t tap people up? Two words – Alan Pardew. Though we won out of that in the end by ditching the apprentice for the master.
As for the gutter press. According to most WH fans on KUMB and elsewhere, Shorey has been having a medical every week for the last 4 years. You might at least appreciate that having another club’s fans going on about one of your players for four years gets a little bit annoying? As for being for sale, I noted he’s go for silly money, and that is not what WH are likely to offer. In a normale environment, he’s not for sale.
And as for minding my manners, Mr Hammer, your post is the offensively written one, I didn’t have a massive pop at West Ham particularly and I even said please! Maybe you ought to take a more civil attitude to legitimately different views merely challenging the standard point -of- view taken here. Live with it. Had I wanted to be offensive I would have given voice to the opinion of most non-WH fans about the fat maradona saga… but that’s an argument for another day.
stop living in the past neil- alan pardew was last century. and u ended up getting promoted. so GET ON WITH It.
your post wasn t offensive IN YOUR OPINION.
your entitled yo your point of view , whether it s wrongheaded, narrowminded or otherwise. just keep it to yourself. or else express it a bit more politely
or bugger off to your berkshire site.
deal with it, cinderella.
give it a rest neil
your chairman freely and willingly let pardew go.
stop moaning and stop feeling sorry for yourself.
the audience for your tripe is elsewhere. go find your detsiny
neiil- we don t give a toss whether u had a small,medium or massive pop. take care pop, whether it s decaf, skinny or tall ,where it belongs.
in the championship. obnoxious ,rude timewaster
neil, do u expect and OBE or and MBE because you were so original as not include an insult on the tevez situation?
get a reality check. and stop moaning. your whinging makes u look championship
neill if u want to take a pop at west ham , small or large, do it on your own site, on your own time.
2 words for u neil
ASHLEY COLE
thats tapping up.
get some sense,if u kkow where to look for it.
it isn t what you say , but how u say it, neil
not rocket science neil. really.
u still don t get it neil?
we don t give a monkey s about “what most non-whu fans think of ” the tevez sage.
we re not bothered.
deal with it
so pardew was a reading fc player then in 2003 was he ,neil?
that s clever.
thats the point neil
you DON T HAVE A POINT OF VIEW.
you just have a moan.
when the transfer window is open, some of every club s players get linked with other clubs
DEAL WITH IT.
