Dev Squad downed by Bolton
WHUFC.com
The Development Squad suffered their first defeat of the season to Bolton
Wanderers on Monday night
04.09.2012

The Development Squad fell to their first Barclays Under-21 Premier League
defeat, losing 2-0 to Bolton Wanderers at the Boleyn Ground on Monday night.
Despite two consecutive wins and the likes of James Tomkins, Gary O'Neil and
Alou Diarra in the side they failed to take advantage of their dominant
possession and were hit on the counter twice in the second half with James
Kelly and David Ngog the scorers. Speaking post-match West Ham United
Development Squad manager Ian Hendon felt his side should have taken
advantage of their dominance and were unlucky to get nothing from the game.
"We huffed and puffed but we didn't really threaten enough in the second
half and unluckily for us the ball has fallen kindly for them and we have
lost 2-0. "Last weekend everything happened for us and what we wanted to do
was come here in front of our own fans and do it again so it is
disappointing for us. Rob Hall and Paul McCallum both threatened the Bolton
goal in the first half and had Blair Turgott and Danny Potts been available
[both away with the England Under-19s] it may have been a very different
story. "The first goal is a mistake from the goalkeeper but credit to him he
has come in and held his hands up, but we conceded two very soft goals.
"These things happen and I thought we were very solid in the first half, we
created some good opportunities and just didn't get the rub of the green in
the box. On another day we could be talking about a win."

Hendon also hailed the benefits of having first-team regulars in the side,
stating that their influence on the younger players in his squad should not
be underestimated.
"They will have a massive impact on the younger players in the squad, they
will talk to them and give them a lot of information on the pitch which is
something they need to learn. "There are some older players already in the
group. Seb Lletget and George Moncur have both been with me for over a year
so they understand what I want out of them, Callum Driver is another who
helps guide the group and it provides great experience for the younger
lads."

Former Liverpool midfielder Alou Diarra almost levelled midway through the
second half but his header crashed off the crossbar and it was another
former Liverpool man who settled the tie as Ngog added Bolton's second.
Hendon has now challenged his side to bounce back against Braintree Town
next Monday. "It is all about consistency. They set the standard last week
scoring five but a few of them fell well short of that. They are young lads
and they are still learning and I thought Leo Chambers was exceptional
tonight alongside James Tomkins. "I think one or two players who feature
didn't will be disappointed because we made four changes as senior players
came in. They will get their chance next week as will the players who
haven't featured in the league yet." "It is now up to them to make an
impression and push for a regular starting spot."

West Ham United: Henderson, Driver (Wearen 75), Tomkins, Chambers, Fanimo,
O'Neil, Lletget (Vose 75), Moncur Diarra, Hall, McCallum.
Subs not used: Larkins, Hunt, Powell.

Manager on Monday
WHUFC.com
Sam Allardyce is looking up after West Ham United's comprehensive win
against Fulham on Saturday
03.09.2012

Sam Allardyce believes the signing of Andy Carroll will help make sure West
Ham United carry on looking up instead of down. Carroll was instrumental in
Saturday's 3-0 win against Fulham after signing from Liverpool on loan on
Thursday. The win ensured Big Sam's side finished the weekend in seventh
spot in the fledgling Barclays Premier League table. "It was a fantastic
performance against Fulham. Instead of a 4-3-3, we played a 4-2-3-1 and
played Kevin Nolan in the hole to get up and around Andy Carroll. I asked
Kevin where he'd like to play and he said to me 'In the hole' so that's what
we did. "Andy's going to be our main man and you've got to get people
supporting him. I thought the support from Matt Taylor and Ricardo Vaz Te
was superb alongside Momo Diame. I also really liked the industry of Mark
Noble, who started most things going."

Indeed, Carroll's link-up play with Kevin Nolan was real cause for optimism.
The Hammers' new No8 created chance after chance for his captain and new
team- mates, leaving his manager excited about what the partnership could
deliver as the season progresses. "You can look at what happened at
Newcastle in the first year when Kevin Nolan could feed off Andy. By the
time Andy had been transferred to Liverpool, he had scored eleven goals and
by the time Kevin had finished the season, he had scored 13 and they were
really comfortable in the division. "If Andy scores between ten and 15
goals, it is going to give us a great chance to be out of the relegation
zone. If Andy gets 15 to 20 goals, we can get in the top ten because all we
have to do there is to produce enough clean sheets to make sure we get
points on the board with the goals that he scores. "It is easier for me to
know that there is going to be a goal scored in our team nearly every week
and tell the defenders to get that clean sheet."

The home side dominated their visitors from start to finish, with Nolan
opening the scoring inside a minute from an attack Carroll started by
flicking on a header to Ricardo Vaz Te. Chances for Nolan, Diame and Vaz Te
came and went before Reid headed in a corner - a goal that helped to ease
his manager's anxiety. "I was getting a bit worried before we scored the
second because we were so dominant and created so many chances but had not
got the second. I was thinking 'Wow, in this league we could be punished at
any stage'. "It is really, really important to punish the other team when
you are on top and in the end we did that thoroughly. We did it off two
set-plays and got a very well deserved 3-0 lead."

The only slight concern was the hamstring injury picked up by Carroll in the
second half, which was still being assessed by the Hammers medical staff on
Monday morning. One more positive piece of news, though, was that Matt
Jarvis' thigh injury is not serious and he is expected to be back for the
Hammers' next game away at Norwich City a week on Saturday. "It was a shame
Matt Jarvis was out with a slight thigh injury, although we don't think will
be a problem after this international break. George McCartney and Jack
Collison, who was brilliant for us last season, were also both out through
injury. "We've also got Alou Diarra, who is a top-quality France
international and we've got Modibo Maiga, who was a top scorer in France and
could have a real influence on our squad this year. "We've got a nice blend
of talent and experience there that will be important to us. There are a lot
of people that want to prove they are still Premier League players. "With
the additions, we've got a really good squad now, which is important as you
do get injuries. Against Fulham we had injuries to our record signing and
left-back, but we've filled in and been magnificent. We must now keep that
momentum going when we play Norwich."

Some of Big Sam's first-team squad who did not feature on Saturday will play
for the Development Squad on Monday night at the Boleyn Ground. James
Tomkins, Alou Diarra, Gary O'Neil and Stephen Henderson will all take part
as Ian Hendon's side look to make it three wins in three. "Some of the
first-team players who did not feature on Saturday may now play for the
Development Squad at the Boleyn Ground on Monday evening. I'm told entry is
free to Season Ticket holders and just £3 for general admission adults or £1
for kids so hopefully we'll get a good crowd there to cheer on our
youngsters."

U18s suffer Bolton blow
WHUFC.com
Defensive errors cost the youth team dear in a 3-1 defeat at Bolton
Wanderers
03.09.2012

Academy Director Tony Carr admitted that three uncharacteristic defensive
errors had cost West Ham United dear in a 3-1 Barclays U18 Premier League
defeat at Bolton Wanderers. The Hammers travelled to Lancashire for their
third league match of the 2012/13 season unbeaten after a 2-2 draw at
Reading and 2-1 home win over Everton. However, Carr conceded that the U18s
just did not produce the goods against Jimmy Phillips' side on Saturday,
Kieran Sadlier's second-half consolation goal aside. "We started the game
quite brightly considering we had travelled a long distance and they came
out of the blocks quickly. We started very well but then,
uncharacteristically, Frazer Shaw made a mistake trying to dribble out of
defence and he got dispossessed. "At that point we were all out of shape and
they got in a shot that hit the post and put the rebound in, so after a
bright start we found ourselves one down after ten minutes. "They tried to
pin us inside our own half and pressed very high and we just couldn't live
with that. We tried to play short when we perhaps should have tried to turn
them around and get up the pitch and get the game in their half a bit more.
"We slowly got into the game without threatening, save for a couple of
half-chances. In the second half we tried to change the game by getting the
ball in their half a bit more, but then we made another mistake. "Manny
Onnariase is a 15-year-old schoolboy and is learning but he dribbled out of
defence and tried to make a pass that was intercepted and they went down the
left and a shot came in that Sam Baxter parried and they put the rebound in
again. Two basic errors put us 2-0 down. "We got one back through a good
move down the right. Nana Boakye-Yiadom, who had come on as a substitute,
put in a good cross and their goalkeeper parried it. We intercepted the
loose ball and Kieran Sadlier put it in. With 20 minutes to go, I thought we
might get something out of the game. "They started to go on the back foot
and looked to be tiring, while we were finishing strongly, but then we made
another uncharacteristic mistake. "Josh Siafa, who was playing at
right-back, got the ball just outside our box and tried to pass it square.
The ball was intercepted and bang, we're 3-1 down and the game was over at
that point, really. "Overall, it was disappointing but the positives are
that we're a young side with a young defence that is still learning the
game. "Boys are being pushed up to the Development Squad, who have made a
great start to the season, and not every team can win every game so we have
to move on to the next one."

Moving on up
KUMB.com
Filed: Monday, 3rd September 2012
By: Charlie Clayton

It's been a while since West Ham United have been anything but poor and as
much as it pains me to say that, deep down we all know it's true.

The day we received confirmation that we were no longer a Premier League
club was the day I lost a lot of hope for our club. Thank God however that
after a year of boring Championship football, on 19th May 2012, it happened.


87 minutes into a nail-biting game in an explosive Wembley Stadium against
Blackpool, Ricardo Vaz Te - the Portuguese winger - signed, sealed and
delivered Premier League football back to Upton Park.

Fast forward to Sunday, 26th August, the day after the Swansea defeat. With
successful signings of James Collins, Mohammed Diame, Mobido Maiga, Alou
Diarra and many more, we are looking like a Premier League club at the back
and in the centre but after the Villa game, we all knew we lacked strength
on the wings.

Matt Taylor on one side and Ricardo Vaz Te on the other? We didn't look like
a threat down either side. A few flicks of brilliance from Vaz that
ultimately led to nothing is not going to keep us up. Although we scratched
a win against Villa, we didn't look very strong at all. We undoubtably
needed a winger.

Less than a week down the line and my Twitter feed is telling me West Ham
United have signed Matt Jarvis from Wolves. After so many false reports on
big names however, I didn't give myself the false sense of security like I
did with the countless others and believe this report until Sky Sports News
confirmed it with a picture of him holding a West Ham shirt. That was it, my
prayers had been answered. Cole would step up and score goals and if he
didn't, Maiga would and if he didn't, Vaz would. At this point, I was
excited about the Swansea game.

The whistle blew at 90 minutes and we'd lost 3-0 to a team we should be
pushing for a result against. We may have let in two through silly mistakes
but that doesn't cover the lack of goals. With Cole and Maiga looking poor,
you struggled to find where our goals this season would come from. With a
week left on the clock something had to be done. We undoubtably needed a
striker.

I write this on the morning after deadline day. Thursday night as I browsed
the internet laughing at all the names we'd been linked with over the last
few months, a television was on with Sky Sports News blaring away behind me.
It was just on to get the latest on deals like Berbatov to Fulham and Julio
Cesar to QPR.

I was only half listening until something caught my ear,in a very big way.
Jim White, the Scottish presenter gave me the best piece of West Ham news
possible. "BREAKING NEWS; ANDY CARROLL IS UNDERGOING A MEDICAL AT UPTON PARK
AS WE SPEAK..."

I dropped my mouse and spun my chair, mouth open wider than I can ever
remember it being. Sure enough, the England international was at Upton Park.
I ran downstairs to alert my dad of the news although he was about to come
up to tell me.

Still not being able to believe it, we sat glued to the screen for almost
two hours until the news every West Ham fan who knows what's good for them
had been waiting for. Once again, Jim White, the man of the hour, appeared
on my screen.

"BREAKING NEWS; WEST HAM HAVE SIGNED ANDY CARROLL ON A SEASON-LOAN DEAL WITH
THE OPTION TO BUY AFTERWARDS" he announced, with his usual overreaction
where transfers are involved.

There was suddenly a buzz around my house. My dad and I are lifelong West
Ham fans and after being dragged through the mire with West Ham over the
last couple of seasons we strongly believed things were on the up. I went to
bed a very happy Hammer.

You've got your West Ham kit on and you're rushing out of your house with
one last glance at the TV for team news. It's definitely a home day at Upton
Park. Within a few hours we were sitting watching the Hammers' star signing
himself: Big Andy had made his debut.

A minute in and we were 1-0 up with Andy's header setting up the goal. 45
minutes later and he had been the best player on the pitch. West Ham United
were 3-0 up and no one could believe it. We looked surprisingly... Good?

Berbatov came on for Fulham and immediately gave the ball away. West Ham
fans jumped at the opportunity, singing, "What a waste of money!'
Immediately after this at the opposite end of the field Carroll gave it away
resulting in "What a waste of money!" being directed back at us. However,
the ever-comical Cockneys screamed back with, 'But he was free, but he was
free, Andy Carroll, we didn't pay a fee!' which immediately shut the away
supporters up.

Everyone needed pinching by 60 minutes; every single header was Carroll's.
It seemed all too good to be true. Then that pinch came and it left a big
old bruise.

Just as he had been doing for the last hour, Andy Carroll jumped for the
aerial ball played forward but mistimed his jump and hit the ground hard.
The stadium fell silent. Lifting his hand up for medical attention, everyone
looked at each other. It was typical West Ham. Then, a few seconds later
there was a sigh of relief, as the big man got to his feet and walked off
the field. He was definitely injured, but he couldn't be out for long.

Carlton Cole replaced him and then Rob Hall made his Premier League debut.
The final whistle went and the rumours began to spread like wildfire. A
week? A month? six months? How long was the England striker out for?

It has since been confirmed that Carroll will be out for two to four weeks.
That meant we may struggle in our next four fixtures - before noticing that
our next game wasn't for two weeks because of the impending international
break. Carroll immediately pulled out of the England squad but could be
returning for our next game at Norwich. At worst, he should only miss two
games.

What a result; international duty has actually saved us.

As far as England are concerned, Rot Hodgson is now without his two main
strikers (Wayne Rooney's thigh injury also keeping him out). Nevertheless,
my club means more to me than my country and if, in the future, Leo
Chambers, Robert Hall, Blair Turgott and so many others that are progressing
through our ranks do make it through to the England team, with Carroll a
West Ham player also now, who knows - a repeat of the legendary 1966 could
well be on the cards...

Sam Allardyce says Andy Carroll can help West Ham to finish in the top 10
Last Updated: September 3, 2012 3:44pm
SSN

West Ham boss Sam Allardyce believes Andy Carroll can fire his side to a
top-half finish this season. The 23-year-old made an impressive debut in
their 3-0 win over Fulham at the weekend after joining the Hammers on a
season-long loan from Liverpool last week. Carroll suffered a hamstring
injury in the second half but Allardyce is confident the striker will be a
major asset for them this season. "If Andy scores between 10 and 15 goals,
it is going to give us a great chance to be out of the relegation zone,"
Allardyce told the club's official website. "If Andy gets 15 to 20 goals, we
can get in the top 10 because all we have to do there is to produce enough
clean sheets to make sure we get points on the board with the goals that he
scores. "Andy's going to be our main man and you've got to get people
supporting him. I thought the support (against Fulham) from Matt Taylor and
Ricardo Vaz Te was superb alongside Momo Diame."

West Ham skipper Kevin Nolan, who opened the scoring in the first minute,
played alongside Carroll during their time together at Newcastle and
Allardyce is hoping the friends can rekindle their on-field understanding
for the Hammers. "You can look at what happened at Newcastle in the first
year when Kevin Nolan could feed off Andy," he said. "By the time Andy had
been transferred to Liverpool, he had scored 11 goals and by the time Kevin
had finished the season, he had scored 13 and they were really comfortable
in the division."

Harry Redknapp's Admission on Playing Style!
By S J Chandos
West Ham Till I Die

Since parting company with Tottenham Hotspurs, Harry Redknapp has regularly
featured as a TV pundit. On Saturday night, he appeared with Gary Lineker
and Alan Shearer on Match of the Day. In commenting on the West Ham Vs
Fulham match, Redknapp praised the Carroll deal and the quality of the
Hammers' performance. In particular, the way that West Ham mixed up their
play, combining slick passing moves and hitting intelligent diagonal balls
in to the box to exploit Andy Carroll's ability in the air.

In the course of his commentary, Redknapp made an interesting admission,
that while he won widespread acclaim for the style of his Spurs team, they
often utilised the diagonal (long) ball in to the box to find Crouch in the
box and that Van der Vaart scored a number of goals by exploiting the
so-called 'second phase' ball. He admitted that this was used frequently as
a tactic, amidst the sharp passing football. Yet did that Spurs team ever
get condemned for playing the so-called 'long ball' or being 'direct?' No of
course not, all commentators saw was a passing team, who played the game the
'right way.'

This admission reinforces the conclusion that with Allardyce it is a case of
'give a dog a bad name.' The media narrative about Allardyce's footballing
style is built upon descriptions of long/direct and ugly but effective
football. Even after the beauty of West Ham's passing on Saturday, match
reports still led with the all too familiar references to the long ball and
a physical style. Yet, Harry Redknapp employed the same tactic with Crouch
and there were no similiar observations, because the overriding narrative
associated with Redknapp is one of passing football and attractive,
attacking play. And there juxtaposed is the stereotypical and labelling
manner in which the media and others think of the two managers and their
respective styles of play.

However, few things in life are that straightforward. Allardyce's previous
teams have played good football, particularly his later Bolton sides which
included a number of technically gifted, quality footballers like Nicholas
Anelka. As I have consistently argued, Allardyce's West Ham side will look
to mix up its style of play, combining both a direct style and short passing
game. I believe that Allardyce is a pragmatist and the best style for him is
essentially 'what works' to deliver the result. I also feel that we can play
exciting and attractive football under Allardyce, although it will be built
upon a foundation of an organised and hard working team unit. Two traits
very rarely associated with past West Ham teams! No doubt, we will witness
some dogged and functional displays this season, especially in matches away
from home, against the top teams. Yet in others, we will see some excellent,
expansive and attacking play, in the best traditions of West Ham Utd FC.

What we probably need to is to attempt a deconstruction of the discourse of
the 'long ball.' We should pose the question: when is a long ball not a long
ball? Was Bobby Moore's free kick for Geoff Hurst's headed equaliser, in the
1966 World Cup Final, a long ball? Was Moore's long pass for Hurst to run on
to and score England's fourth goal a prime example of being direct? Ron
Greenwood preached hitting Hurst's runs on to the near post and West Ham
turned it in to a art form. Was Greenwood advocating direct football in
adopting that tactic? In 1985-86, Devonshire and his fellow midfielders
played numerous long balls forward in to space for Cottee and McAvennie's to
exploit with their pace. Was that the long ball tactic and was Lyall's
greatest side tainted by it? Of course not. In qualitative terms, the
diference lies in the manner in which the ball is played and to what intent.
How Greenwood and Lyall's teams played and the tactics of, for example, the
old Wimbldon FC is as different as the rapier and the cudgel! They are both
weapons, they have that commonality, but one is about skill and finese and
other is about raw, brute force; one precise and the other imprecise!

The truth is that there is a subtle distinction to be made between long
aimless balls continously pumped from the back and intelligent and skilful
balls played in to the box. One can only be excited by the prospect of
skillful players like Matt Javis and Matt Taylor hitting beautifully
flighted diagonal balls in to strikers, with runners in to the box
exploiting the knock down. Especially if it is deployed as a tactic to take
advantage of the defensive weaknesses of opponents and co-exists alongside a
more measured, fluid passing game. Saturday's performance showed how
Allardyce's West Ham side can productively mix up these two approaches to
produce a potent cocktail of attractive and very effective football.

If Harry Redknapp, as a graduate of West Ham's Academy, can deploy that
tactic without being crudely labelled, then why not Sam Allardyce? Is it
just a case of 'give a dog a bad name' or perhaps 'mud sticks.'

SJ. Chandos.

West Ham say Andy Carroll deal is watertight
Exclusive
By HUGH SOUTHON
Published: 03rd September 2012
The Sun

WEST HAM'S owners and legal team are locked in talks to ensure Andy Carroll
stays at Upton Park. Liverpool face a striker crisis after allowing
£35million Carroll to join the Hammers on loan. But the Londoners reckon
they have a watertight deal which avoids any chance of the striker being
recalled to Anfield in January — or being sold to anyone other than
themselves. There is speculation Liverpool will attempt to take advantage of
the clause which declares the agreement hangs on West Ham "not being
relegated". A Hammers source said: "We have a deal which allows us to buy
him tomorrow at around £17-£18m if we chose to. "We are convinced Andy
cannot be sold to any other club. We have him on a year's loan with the
first option to buy but have called in the legal eagles to check
everything."

Ghana captain Mensah linked to West Ham move

Mensah could be making a second return to the English Premiership with West
Ham
By Ameenu Shardow
GhanaSoccer.net

Ghana captain John Mensah is set to join West Ham this week, the English
press have reported. The 29-year-old is currently a free agent following the
termination of his contract with French club Olympique Lyon. Mensah has been
training with the English Premier League side to prove his fitness and is
now set to seal his move with the Hammers despite interests from other
clubs. "Several clubs want to sign John but he is keen to join West Ham,"
the ex Rennes defender's representative Willie McKay said. Mensah has
already had a taste of the English Premier League during his two-year loan
spell at Sunderland from 2009. Injury however prevented him from playing as
many games at the Stadium of Light leading to his return to Lyon where he
subsequently terminated his contract by mutual consent.

Carroll hamstring "too damaged to scan"
September 3, 2012
EmailPrint
By Harry Harris, Football Correspondent

Andy Carroll's hamstring injury is so bad West Ham United had to cancel a
planned scan on Monday. The east London club, who worked so hard to sign
Carroll on loan from Liverpool, fear that they might be without their
powerful centre forward for some time. A Hammers insider told ESPN: "It
looks a bad hamstring, too damaged to scan at the moment." West Ham might
only have Carroll for a limited time after Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers
revealed that they have the option to recall him from his otherwise
season-long loan in January. Carroll was adamant that he didn't want to be
forced out of Anfield and even on the morning of the transfer window those
closest to him where convinced there was "no chance" of him moving.
Liverpool planned to sign a new striker in the transfer window meaning
Carroll's chances would be even more limited and he might not even be on the
bench if he stayed at Anfield. However, Rodgers now regrets letting Carroll
go because Liverpool failed to sign either Daniel Sturridge on loan or buy
Clint Dempsey from Fulham. West Ham, though, have ruled out going for
Michael Owen or Emile Heskey as a stop gap while Carroll is out injured.
