I have to say I am astonished Jack Collison was so low. After Cole, I’d have said he and Behrami were the two best players, although I have no complaints about Diamanto and Hines being so high, seeing as their introduction changed the game.
Cole, at 8.53, got one of the highest ever ratings.



That link is not the best but the only one I can find atm
Yeah I can't find any better mate
During match I said that I will buy a shirt with Cole printing if Super-CC scores. And he did.
I just ordered my shirt. I feel confused. A year ago I couldn't even think about wearing shirt #12. But Carlton has been amazing and the performance he put in against Arsenal made me a fan of his.
Keep on Carlton, Hammer of The Year and WC-Finals are waiting for you
I sm a season ticket holder and not suggesting jack collison in front of upson or Parker ad club captain but on Sunday he was geeing up all the boys as we took ko after arsenal got there second goal. He also was getting them fired up in centre circle waiting for second half to start. In my eyes a real fighter who loves his team. A captain for sure in a couple a seasons in my opinion.

way better link so far
Better link mate
Thanks
Crap game though! lol
oh cm ‘on, 1 way or another, west ham are better than villa, everton and sunderland, and we will beat them, DNT THINK NEGATIVE, whats the benefit of that?
and no, im nt having a laugh! lol
It's nothing to do with thinking negative! It's being realistic! You have them down as a definite 9 points for us and it's nowhere near definite!
And what does "one way or another we are better than Villa" mean? There is only one way we need to be better than them and that's at football! lol
CM’ON! MATT, LUK @ THE WAY WE PLAYED AGAINST ARSENAL, WE PLAY LIKE THAT, WE WILL WIN, POINTS UP 4 GRABS, AND WE ARE BETA THEN VILLA @ FOOTY!!!
END OF STORY
Is that Mr Dixon with the ginger hair?
Yes. LOL
Matt is right. You have to be realistic. Arsenal went into the match underestimating us. Sunderland and Villa wont make that mistake. If confidence levels are up, and I hope they are now, we have a chance sure. I really think it depends on what happens at Sunderland if indeed we have turned that corner. But to just flat out say were are better than any one team is subjective at the moment.
Oh end of story is it? Oh ok then, can't argue with that logic! Blimey!
2nd half on. Dixon scored in 1st.

Just keeps buffering every 15secs for me – very irritating!!!!!!
Same here Jolly. Annoying. You're about Nouble. Yikes!!
Frank Nouble plays like a young Emile Heskey – Unable to trap a bag of cement!
This Polish lot are not a bad side!
Not bad against a reserve side.
Yeah but come on, they are a small team compared to West Ham and even a Hammers reaserve team is always going to be a good one! With our world class academy
You mean the world class that just had a pass back? LOL
You're right actually, was just havin a crack.
2-0
Bam! Deprela?? or was it?
Not sure who it was mate! The players are tiny on my laptop and my polish isn't all that! lol
1-2! What a palava that was! lol
Yes, what was that? Every player in front of the net and it still goes in. lol Let's just chalk that little bit of play to youthful exuberance. LOL
oh dear!!
2 all!
Ended 2 all! Another great West Ham game where we give awaythe lead in the final few mins!
Oh well!
hey Matt, I wasnt having a go mate, lol, na Im just trying to stay positive, but if you say so mate then I guess your right, lol, sorry mate…
No probs mate! It's all good
More good news! Dixon scores in stiffs. Maybe our luck is starting to turn?
Would likr to see him in teh first team soon, even if it's just for 15 mins!
glad! but seriously I wasnt having a go, just trying 2 justify my point, lol, u were right though m8, about the villa, Everton thing, nt garunteed a win, neway whos playin the reserves?
Hey, it's all good! Don't sweat it mate!
The reserves were playimg a polish side called Arka Gdynia and we drew 2 all
Dixon and Daprella scored a goal each
Matt
ye matt, thanks 4 dat, whos this Daprela guy, heard his gd, lol
Mustaqim, DAprels is a young defender we signed last window from Grasshoppers
Switzerland only 17yrs but we have great things for him if this continues.
Lucas neill's really got a grips with that Everton defence since going there,that's 5 conceded in 2 games,nice!!!
Well if he plays like that when we play them next wk its another in the bag for us.
Sunderland lose in penalties. A long and demoralising game for them. Can we make the most of it on the weekend? Let's hope so!
Let's hope Dixon stay's, fit coz believe me he is another Rooney in the making.
I was one of those who questioned Diamanti – not his undoubted ability, but his perceived position as seen by many on here. Good to see that some of you have now realised that he isn’t a natural wide midfielder.
He’s still on a steep learning curve, he will never have any sell on value, I’m still not convinced that he was the best use of the funds available at the time, but he’s a breath of fresh air and exactly what we need at present – someone to excite us and give us hope. Enjoy him while he becomes a cult hero.
How do you know that,he has not played there yet.
It's not always about "sell on value" sometimes a manager has to buy what he thinks is good for the club at that particular moment
And as far as not worth the money we paid for him at the time, no offense mate but you (or I or anyone on here) has any idea how much West Ham paid for him. All we know is what we have all read in the press! And that has varied from £500,000 to £6Million! lol
I'm sure Zola, Clarke and Nani wouldn't have paid stupid money for an unproven player. The same was said about Savio, he WAS a flop but again, all we have are press reports! For all we know he coculd have cost us a pair of boots and a pickled egg! lol
Love Bellamy whinging about elements of the crowds giving him some stick,gee its hard to keep taking home 100 plus grand a week,those in glass houses !
Although I agree, Bellend is a ummmm…….BELL END! I don't think it's right for anyone (including £100, 000 a week football players) to endure derogative remarks about their family members!
So on that point I think he is spot on to complain about it
Perhaps the "We miss Lucas" brigade might quieten down now!
We need to put some pace on the left when they come to us.
My money is on Lucas to concede a penalty to us when we play them. After all he conceded enough to other teams when he played for us!
Kim , I agree with Everton losing again last night this must be good for us on Sat wk. But first lets get past Sunderland.Lol! 1-2
Sunderland are now reported to have a list of injuries ahead of our game on Sat
It could all be a red herring of course but after reading the report from last nights game against Villa, it looks like it might be true
Darren Bent: might not be back as expected! Knee!
Linda McCartney: Received a knock on his hip last night and looks like might be out for 2 weeks
Bolo Zenden: Hamstring
Frasier Campbell: Muscle problem!
John Mensah: Ongoing calf problem!
Nice
Matt, Although I dont wish for injuries on any player I hope that o n the back of defeats by Brum and last night the omens are good for us to win
assuming we put in the same performance as we did against Arsenal.Lol!1
Excellent news, Matt – Ferdinand still plays!!xD
Tony Carr testimonial has been announced! West Ham United vs All Star Acadamy XI, I wonder who will be in the line up? Any ideas people?
Yeah but have you noticed, the date of the testimonial is announced for 5th May 2009! lol
They must have seen your comment on here mate, as they have changed it to 2010.
Think of the players have come through our youth set up and it's going to be a big night!
Why don't they just make it England v West ham?
Tony Carr has said in an interview yesterday that he has already had verbal confirmation from Rio, joe Cole, John Terry, Frank Lampard and Paul ince – barring cup commitments (Rio Joe, John and Frank, not Paul obviously!).
I for one will be there and will NOT participate in ANY booing of returning old boys – this will be Tony's night and not one to be ruined by moronic hassling of forgotton Judas's.
I certainly wouldn't boo any of them. I think Incey might have to get in training now though – he looks like he is the reason for the disappearance of the pie and mash stand from the Doc Martin Upper – hee hee!
Saying that – I may have to hire an empty room for usage after the game. The thought of watching fat Frank or Ince for any period of time without shouting abuse is going to require therapy afterwards. Me, an empty room save for a dummy and a baseball bat and a lot of screaming and shouting might just do the job.
oh ok , thanks fishy, luks like a gd player, lol, after the sunderland and villa game, sunderland are gonna be tired, so west ham are likely to beat them, am I right, what do u think guys?
No, you are wrong – for EVERY reason i have previously mentioned.
Excellent piece on Carlton Cole here and no, I didn't write it!
http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/opinion/blogs/fan…
chrischris – can you remember questioning me when I said Cole had pace?
Devo I can't,but If I did I'll eat pie,the guy has got pace,I've never doubted him as a player thou,I must admit the fella's improved a hell of a lot ,he really is a handful,If we could find him a quality partner a top 8 finish is possible if Zola stays positive with he's formations,I really do feel the Arsenal game was the turning point.COYI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
well why not, heard sunderland got a long list of injury, gonna be tired,lol, surely we should beat them, but then again, matts right, nt garunteed a win,lol
oh ok, lol, calm down odd job,lol, m8 I was only really happy the way he played, but if u say so, then i guess ur right.
Why we bothering about what Sunderland have got and what their gunna do?
Let them worry about us,positive formation 4 4 2 one in hole what ever!!! all guns blazing!!! we are WEST HAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
