Look at West Ham, only 4 points of second place.

Good manager that Moysey, isn't he?

Do you Hammers dare to dream?

I was surprised to know that an iconic, well supported club like West Ham United have never been league champions. The highest they've finished is 3rd (once in the mid 1980s)

Their supporters deserve better, there isn't too many better sights in football than seeing those Hammers fans in full voice singing "I'm forever blowing bubbles"

True enough .. plus the bubbles of course .

Still think Liverpool’s anthem wins hands down though

Who’s the most talented West Ham player you’ve seen ?

De Canio , Joe Cole ... ?

The likes of Bobby Moore, Geoff Hurst and Trevor Brooking were before my time, but they had a good player called Alan Devonshire in the 80s (LT will back me up on that)

But yeah, the likes of Lampard, Cole and Ferdinand's careers where more defined at other clubs so Di Canio is maybe right.

I thought Carlos Tevez was a great player, but he was only there for a short while.

Di Canio our best player in my lifetime for sure. Since him I really think only Tevez and Payet have come close to producing that level of ability and excitement but both were only one season wonders for us

After last season I think realistically top half would be a good result, be absolutely delighted if we could be in the mix for Europe

Crazy

I reckon Man City are convinced the league is theirs for the taking

If our owners stop being tight bastards and buy a CB then we ill salvage it and Klopp needs to drop Firmino for Minamino and we badly miss Jota

Can't wait for Everton to play Manchester City to put them in their place, although they'll probably bottle out and cry off with Covid, again. They fear us.

New CB will only help so much when you can't score a goal in three straight games

this season has been so unpredictable, anything could happen yet

Man U have been dire this season and they are currently top. At this rate, in 2 months, Arsenal could be top

Apparently Aubameyang was seen scoring a goal for Arsenal. Not sure if true, but the summary says so.
