		<description>re spooli-

totally agree on collins. most underappreciated player we have.

regarding mullins, i haven t given up on him, as vs man city he began to show a bit of what made him so useful 2 seasons ago.</description>

		<description>james collins is a better player than ferdinand. he attacks the ball well and takes no shit from burly strikers - a good pro-active centre-half. i admit that ferdinand is a different style of defender, reading the game, sweeping up and intercepting passes - but, like his brother, dosent really do that well enough.
i am sure that we all wish our players to do well and support them to the maximum we can but you should be able to voice youre opinions objectively, thats what this site is for! i hope ferdinand sorts his attitude out, i am sure he will be a better player if he does.
carlton cole is not the only dead weight we are carrying - bowyer, spector, mullins, pantsdown - none of them are good enough.</description>

		<description>re keith s response. being the cynic that i am , maybe it wouldn t be the worst thing if ferdinand did go into a sulk , as perhaps that wud finally give collins the starting position he deserves. for whatever reason curbishley seems hellbent on giving anton &quot;one last chance.&quot; to me the only downside of ferdinand s attitude detriorating is that it would lower his transfer value.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m essentially behind ny hammer ...whilst hoping that Anton gets his sh*t in a sock before (getting sold during) January.
I hope to buggery that he doesn&#039;t go into a terminal sulk like NRC did.</description>

		<description>i agree with  whu9105- i d have been more keen to sell cole than harewood. we re very short of options now upfront, so although 4 million was good business , it may have been wiser to wait til janauary , when we had found someone better.</description>

		<description>very well said bout collins and anton......

yes tevez was class, and he went a very long way to keeping us up....but anton and collins (especially collins) looked alomst solid at the tail end of last year....

im sure/hope upson will prove to be a good buy, its just a shame curbs feels that he can only play players who either he paid thru the roof for or used to play for charlton, instead of playing player (collins) who deserve to be playing

y havnt we got rid of carlton cole yet? seriously he has been useless, and clearly has no interest in playin for us...infact, he said that &quot;i like to see it as a stepping stone onto bigger clubs&quot;

i know people did have criticisms against marlon, and sometime rightfully so, but at the end of the day, he wanted to play football and earn his colours...i wud far rather of us offloaded cole than harewood;.

none of that has got anything to do with anything, just wanted to get it off ma chest!</description>

		<description>there is no reason to be positive when players are not giving us a rweason to be positive. ferdinand has been not a minor, but a major disappointment on and off the field over the last 12 months. he should consider himself lucky to still be at west ham , and to be in teh starting 11.  and if he doesn t improve  on last saturday s performance he shud be relegated to the bench with immediate effect. he reespresents
much of what is wrong with the club, although in pre-season his attitude seemed a bit better than last year. if he doesn t improve quickly he shud be sold in janauary.</description>

		<description>Oh dear, oh dear. I cant believe it. 1 game and everyone is still slagging of West Ham, the players and the manager. Now, not content with that, your singling one of our own youth players off. Yeah i can accept he is not good enougth for England, but he is a Hammer and while he is, lets get behind him.
Ian Dale, you should know better! are you a spud? You seem to be trying to stirr up as much trouble as the Daily mail. Why not get a positive not on your next posting?</description>
