West Ham United vs Wolves – Premier League Match Preview

🕵️‍♂️ Transcript:

yes everybody welcome back to talking walls welcome back to a brand new match preview on the channel we’re here yet again for what is being described as another El Sako we had one on Wednesday against Everton um Gary O’Neal was absolutely smashed but somehow kept his job he’s still in charge of w Hampton wonders as I speak and both him and Yulan lery who’ve been close to the chop for a number of days and even weeks now are still going to both be in charge for Monday’s game going to be giving my thoughts we have the opposition perspective later on in the video we had Gary O’Neal’s pre pre-match press conference actually on Thursday um which we’ll talk a little bit about as well and if you want to go and check it out our friends over at football prizes this week have got yet again another uh wolves related prize Aigner framed custom framed mat CA shirt up for grabs I’ll make sure you leave a link to that in the top of the description down below but walls on the travels on Monday West Ham United and we’re in uh still a bit of a sticky situation in regards to the league three massive games coming up we play West Ham we’ve then got IP switch at molu next week and then we’ve got Leicester uh the week after before Christmas um uh I certainly think the main reason that Gary O’Neal is still in charge of this football club is because walls haven’t got anybody lined up and they want to avoid the situation that they had with Bruno large a couple of years ago where they sacked him and just really really struggled to to get a replacement so I think walles are working hard on that however I think with the way fos and have set us up they are pretty much struggling I know for a fact that they’re struggling to bring somebody in because they’re being very stubborn in regards to what money they want to pump into it what how they want to approach things they want to be selfs sufficient the club they don’t want to change that and all of a sudden your pool of managers goes very very small we’ve seen today even the West Brom Alia manager corber linked I have no doubt he’ll be on the walls radar but for me regardless of his managerial ability to bring somebody in with West bromage albian roots not not much top if any Top Flight experience I think that’s going to be a big big risk for walls although there are some walls fans open to it and if it worked yeah it’d be absolutely brilliant to rub that into the West bromage fans faces but um gr and Potter David Moes I think we can say to no to them and I think if you say if they’re not interested I’d assume con s is the same so it’s a very interesting pool of managers that walls are going to be having to to look into and they’re certainly going to be having to look outside of the box so um we’ll have to wait and see I think they’re gonna have to take a massive risk and a massive punt on on whatever happens here um but in regards to the game I I was quite shocked after that Everton game which unfortunately it was there on Wednesday that Gary O’Neal had his pre-match press conference on Thursday because the players had a day off on Friday he couldn’t do the pre-match press conference because they’d had a day off you’ve just lost 40 why are the players still being low that day off I don’t know but uh pretty much press comments and there wasn’t much of note to be honest in regards to it again he made comments about that he wasn’t concerned about his own future just concerned about getting walls as far as the table as he can which is fair enough of course it just wasn’t it didn’t give it a hell of a lot really but at times there were certain things that he was saying I think I think he knows his time he’s very very close to being up and um like I said at the start of the preview I’m flabbergasted that he’s still the the head coach of wolver Hampton wonders now in terms of the team pretty much everybody is still available uh Nelson C of course coming back for suspension which is which is going to be a plus I suppose uh but in terms of lineup I’m not even going to put a predicted lineup on on the screen today because I do not have a Scooby-Do How Gary O’Neal is going to line us up on Monday something has got to change the the the way the manner that we conceded the manner that we defended on Wednesday was nothing short of atrocious um set pieces once again so Dawson Bueno I don’t know Dawson was diabolical I thought on Wednesday lamino was slotting into the back five just didn’t quite work out you know I think he’s got to make some Brave decisions on Monday Gary O’Neil if he wants you know there I I can genuinely see we live in a world where Wolves win the next three games I can genuinely see that and that just puts such a puts walles in their club and the board in such a weird situation but I can genuinely see a situation where walls win all three but I can also see a situation and this is why it’s weird that we lose all three um I cannot I I think he’s got to make some Brave decisions players that have been underperforming regardless of whether you’re senior players or not you’ve got to ask them there’s been players on that bench gagging for an opportunity you’ve got to mix it up give them those chances Tommy Doyle Pablo Sarabia who to be fair did have a little knock and that’s why he wasn’t in the squad on Wednesday these people need those opportunities and because otherwise why not you know you have to change something and uh I’ll be intrigued and ly like I said first time that we’re facing off against him it would have been sod law that he was sacked or or whatever before this game but he is going to be in charge um I would be intrigued to to be inside a few of those rules players heads to think is there that little bit of of them that wants that revenge or wants to prove a point to LY Ain no is a perfect one because you know L throw him out for such a long time when he was at the club uh but he’s in the Dugout I think walls fans traveling to to the London Stadium will be interested I’ll be interested to see what sort of reception he gets um from the walles fans but I can’t I cannot for the life of me figure out how this game is going to go and I’d be intrigued to to see how walls approach it how walls play are they still playing for Gary O’Neal um nobody wants a relegation on their CV and I stand by the fact that in terms of individuals our club is the players that we’ve got are too good to be in this position but ultimately how they’re being set up stupid individual errors lapses of concentration are ultimately costing us and that mentality and and setup needs to change sooner rather than later but I did have the pleasure of speaking to Gio who’s a West Ham fan he’s from the Hammers chat page and he it’s it’s so strange the parallels you know how close they are to us in regards to what’s going on at the moment but this are he these are his thoughts ahead of the El saki Co on Monday so then J thank you very much for jumping back on talking walls we did a video a short while ago on your channel very similar to this and you asked me this question about Gary O’Neal so I’ll ask you the same UL ly for you in or out out um I wasn’t Keen when when he was first linked I really didn’t want him and then it was sort of reported he was way to join AC Milan before their version of the ultra the petition stopped it but in between that period when it looked like he was joining AC Milan I was happy CU I like I’ll get it it means we can’t have ly and then it came out very quickly that he was the one coming in and he was in before Moy was even out um yeah so it was back in may he was wanding around the training ground and stuff although he didn’t officially start until the first of July so we got like a month’s charity work ofy and I wasn’t happy with it because I felt like West Ham were in a really good position coming out the season we just finished n quarterfinal eura League we’re waiting on our first season in four without European football but I thought there has to be advantages to that which is more time on the training pitch less fatigue Etc because we discovered a few problems of European football impacting the pendent League campaign I thought right the new guys going to have a bit of a benefit here got a good squad I didn’t know we had 150 million to spend in the summer at this point but I knew we’d have a bit of money but no we need that much so we’re in a good position to hire a really good manager right now West Ham is sort of on the map better than they’ve ever been really in my lifetime and I felt that ly was a disappointing appointment because it felt like it was a freeb and sving like someone with pen League experience and as you go down to s that list free in pen League you’re already limiting the managers yeah quite a lot and we had this link to Ruben Amar over oh wow okay where we get one of the most exciting head coaches in Europe no that didn’t happen off back he went but then I decided to shut my mouth I thought right he’s here now get behind him support him and I’ve just been waiting for something to happen and every game is like I’m not going to overreact we’d win a game want to away to Crystal Palace I’m going to stay calm I’m not then we’d get beaten I’m like no I’m not going to react I’m just going to wait and build up the evidence but feel like I kept on waiting for some form of identity from laki style of play and we’re into December now we’ve not had it yet um the football’s not great the results are even worse the over complication of some things he’s been doing such as using Juan bazaka as almost a right wing back and then having a central midfielder drop into Center back and it’s been causing us all sorts of bother and being getting ripped apart by teams and he’s gone back to basics a little bit in the last few games of just having like a 4-33 not too much evolution of tactics but it’s still it’s just not good um there’s no evidence that he can turn it around at West Ham and I thought he was going to get the sack after lastest game and I think if we could have found a replacement he would have done and we’re now at the point Dave that I think LTE is no longer the head coach of West Ham United because of his ability or because of the board’s confidence in him he’s now here because of the board’s inability to get replacement for him and that’s that and that’s not a good situation to be in um so yeah big firmly ly out there’s so many you know parallels and similarities with your situation and and the W situation know some of the stuff that you said there was similar to to what I’d said to you um about our situation as well um and even when you’re saying you sort of waiting for something to happen and you don’t want to sort of jump at one result because you know you can get carried away whether it’s with a win or a defeat sometimes you know you beat us on Monday for a say some fans are saying right let’s start the European push again or you lose and all of a sudden you’re going to get relegated we’re you know I think a lot of football fans are the same going back to what you said about the amount of money that was spent you think that’s put even more pressure on LY because for any manager in at any club at any level of world football to be had 100 150 million pounds spent it that’s a lot of money isn’t it back to back a new manager this is where I think it splits West h f i feel like a lot of people are love takeing out but I feel like there’s still a split because if you go back to the summer before last so 2023 now we employed Tim Steen who was essentially a head scouted byusing under seon W or shabby Alonzo and all that so he brought them in and then there was a lot of head button going on between Moyes and Sten in regards to spending the money and we brought in Ward prow that was David moyes’s man we brought in M Panos that was ttim st’s man and we got kadus and Alvarez as well and it’s disputed and people believe different things as to who was responsible for those signings but one thing was clear was so Daven Moyes wanted to final say on the transfers and that was that so this summer it changed it was like now we’re going to get ah head coach rather than the manager and in L’s public press conference thing is when he was been announced he got asked about the transfer know coming up you’re going to be are you going to be spending a lot of money he said well it’s not for me to answer it’s that guy he went to Tim he started speaking oh yeah we’ got board have done well got a bit of money to spend so Tim sten’s ultimately the one responsible for the summer transfer business and obviously some of it Max kilman from yourselves that’s clearly a lki signing and that that but there’s also other players we brought in whom you look car and it’s Tim Steen signing and it’s not really work so we like there’s this analysis would be hearing from people regarding L that he likes to have midfielders that pass the opposition to death even with yourselves when you had Nunes NE in that in midfielders keep the ball but you look at our Midfield well we’re we don’t have midfielders to do that so we’ve almost assembled a squad for a head coach that isn’t Leni but yet we’ve let him spend 40 million on M kilman so it’s very disjointed and mismatch so it’s like we had all this money to spend it’s almost like everybody got to spend a bit of it and then we’re all scratching ahead because it’s not really working out um cohesively as a as a as a team you know we signed Somerville from leads that was David Silva in the chairman it was him he that wanted Somerville so we spent 25 so the chairman is having a 25 million spend up L is getting a 40 million pound Center back Tim Steen our technical director went off and got to deor loan but we’re committed to spending 40 million EUR on him next summer and then we were going after Waka and KY Walker Peters for right back two completely different profiles of right back Strikers we’re going to after John Jan don’t get him so we get Nicholas FW the complete opposite of a player one’s young 20s other one’s in his 30s one’s a strong Center forward it doesn’t isn’t very mobile and then you got the other guy who run around he like what is going on here it doesn’t really feel like there’s much planning so pressure on LY yes but I think it’s also made a lot of people look at Tim St and say well you’ve not really done your job well here have you unfortunately for LTE it’s cheaper to set the head coach and it is to B off the technical director and change all of his players so it’s a difficult one I think everybody’s got different opinions on it yeah it’s very difficult when you’ve got people in you know every area sort of the hierarchy your manager sporting director and even worse when chairman or CEO is getting involved as well you know rather than right you can have him I’ll have him and you have him you’ve really all got to have a list of players and say right none of us want him you know all three of you have got to agree on on on something so it’s always going to win in in in tears when it’s it’s like that to be completely honest and N you mentioned there which obviously a lot of walls fans are familiar with is Max kilman how’s how do you think he’s been getting on for you guys so far I’m so so Dave I think when he first came in there was some really good strong performances from him and because I had a strong opinion of him pre West Ham I didn’t really get carried away because I was like nah this ain’t Max kilman like this is like the best version of ma kilman you’re going to see and you ain’t going to see this for the entire season yeah but others G from Ham didn’t didn’t know loads about him so he was getting excited wow this 4 million looks like a bargain I a bit like we just put the breakes on a little bit and then he’s had some okay games but the last couple of games he’s had some real stinkers for us he’s been fault individually for errors leading to goals and stuff like that so there’s been some really good games some average games and a couple of bad ones but I think overall he’s having a strong season so far probably a six or seven out of 10 um if we were to vote for H of the year now there’s not many contenders but he’d be in contention for it but yeah the last couple of games have been bad i’ I’d be intrigued and and maybe walls fans if that are watching I’d be intrigued that in our current situation how many would take him back because like I’ve said to you before and I said it on your video for our preview today I think Max was solid enough he was always available but in terms of the money that was offered for a player of his quality I think walls almost had to to take that to be honest I would be intrigued with the defensive situation that we’re in now hry walls fans would uh be interested in taking him back but youo in terms of managerial situation I I do think West Ham are in a better position than wolves in regards to pulling power uh for for managers I think financially probably slightly better off transfer strategy probably better London base is always a big plus for you what the names that have sort of been banded about so far to maybe take over ly or is there no one really of of note that you guys like to look off um it’s it’s great pot really I think the club are negotiating with him and they’re trying to get him but it’s the free agent thing we will not go and pay money to get a manager out of his current job it’s something the owner David SVA he’s only done it once and that’s when he was at Birmingham city so you’re going back a long time to find and it was quite a minimal compensation that he had to pay to get him so all the managers we’ve had at West Ham United under the current board have been free we’ve never paid compensation for any of them and that’s not going to be changing anytime soon there’s evidence that they will sack him they’ve sacked man P Green and start slaving billage so there’s evidence that will pull the trigger but in both occasions they had David Moyes lined up to come in so whenever there’s evidence of Sullivan sack the manager the new guy the next guy was ready to go so it feels like unless they’ve got that sorted they won’t sack ly and I think that’s the only reason L is still here because of their inability to get point Porter to sign on the line there’s some rumors that we tried to offer him a six-month contract and Porter wouldn’t take it but those rumors have being sort of followed up today so even after the news come out L State and the rumors now are they’re still negotiating with Potter to see if they can we can come to an agreement so I would be S I say surprised I wouldn’t be surprised if green Porter was in the stands on Monday night watching both teams imagine the speculation then I mean like I’ve already already said and I would have said it in the intro for this video granny pot had no chance of him coming to the walls but that’s sort of a journalist and an outlet sort of yeah dream to have a an unemployed manager in the stands watching the uh watching the game really it’s um I can’t imagine how of a how much of a strange situation is for the manager themselves the squad almost knowing that this guy probably isn’t going to be taking your taking charge next week and for the board as well who think both in similar situations if they had somebody lined up the manager wouldn’t be in a job at the moment would you would you take Moyes back maybe Third Time Lucky or is it would do you think that would never happen no um but to sum it up in the summer um as I’ve sort of touched upon I wasn’t anyone but David Moy some people were they just had enough of him I never watched that far and I could one the best example was the former dortman manager H turich in the summer I wouldn’t have taken turich and possibly GRE Porter I wouldn’t have taken green Porter in the summer but would probably take either of them today so my sort of idea of a manager West Ham I’m I’m sort of lowering my expectations and I’m becoming a little bit more desperate I’m far closer to anyone but L than I was anyone but David Mo still would have Raab test though so I’m not quite there yet to me I’m surprised I’ve not heard his name baded about for the W job I’m sure he’ll probably pop up on the uh on I’ve not even looked at The Bookies odds to be honest because that you know it wouldn’t surprised me to see him on there somewhere as well but um in regards to to Mond G I mean I’ve said to you as well I just can’t picture how this game is going to go I really can’t and I think we both predicted probably a draw which isn’t going to be do doing anybody many favors but from your point of view is there anything in mind how you think this game is gonna go and work out for for both sides no I think when I watched rules at the start of the season I thought some of the results were a little bit hard I thought your performances were a little bit better than some of the results at the start of the season but as I’ve watched you the more I watch you the worse you seem to get every time I tune into walles it’s like you’ve got a little bit worse and their team lineups a little bit more iner I never know what team guy O’Neal is going to name I can name five or six players I will start the other five or six you might as well just pick them out of a hat really and I watched your game against Bor and I thought you were a little bit unlucky I think when you give away penalties and there were penalties but for sure it’s you it’s hard to evaluate a team when you’re considering three penalties in a game is difficult but your game against everything my word I I watched that and that’s the first time this season I looked at it and I thought these players have given up now these players aren’t you had half your team look like they didn’t know what they were doing and the other half that didn’t know what they were meant to do didn’t look like they wanted to do it yeah so it was almost like very problematic and I didn’t even feel like everything was that good and they didn’t have to be that good in order to get the win and against Leicester we had 31 shots at goal or something we were like but there weren’t great chances leester had the better chances that we were just shooting from distance and I don’t know how O’Neal is going to line wolves up and I don’t know how the is going to line West Ham up and there’s this at the minute there’s a bit of a situation with too because they had there’s some rumors and they from Prett reliable people that too swung at L at halftime of the Arsenal game and had to be separated and since then we played last year too wasn’t in the squad at all so that’s a bit of a situation that we’ve got at the moment Monday is going to be a really weird game Sky Sports must be rubbing their hands and licking their lips because when they picked this game there’s no way that they thought oh this would be a good one it was Al we got put them on at some point we’ll just stick them on a Monday night kind now they’ve just got like yeah they’ve got a huge game now where both managers could get sacked off the back of it but in terms of how it goes I don’t know I don’t know I don’t think anyone’s looking forward to I don’t think any either fan base is looking forward to this one I think either fan base wants to manager to survive um we could call it nil nil and both get sacked I think we’d all agree and so let’s just call off just do that we both get a point but both managers get moved on I think that’s probably the best best case situation in regards to West Ham performances I think it’s similar to Wars you almost don’t know terms of a lineup but in terms of performances you don’t know which team and which players are going to turn up I watched like I said to you earlier I watched the Newcastle West Ham game I think a lot of people would have put good money on Newcastle to beat you you turn up and and beat them us and Fulham I think Fulham would be playing quite well we beat them 4-1 um so it’s a really really strange season for for both teams both managers both fan bases but I don’t know it’s going to be very intriguing evening I think mate Gio uh thanks for jumping on the channel like I said earlier we’ve done a preview over on your channel as well where can people find that if they wish Hammer chat just bang it in on YouTube Hammer chat and if you fancy some more gobby Scottish opinionated stuff then um the one thing I will add while I’m here because I said my pre in the actual match preview we’ve done but I don’t know wolves fans will watch it but I’ve got a lot of respect for wolves fans after Wednesday when that V was going against you and your fans were singing about how crap V was I think it’s easy to go off and it’s going against you as in you should get pen we don’t get one I think it’s easy then say oh we’ve been hard done by I don’t like VR but when it would actually be a negative for your team and your my respect for w fans went up a lot on Wednesday night heing you um singing about V when they were disallowing and everon go wow that’s a that’s a fan base that’s really had enough with the league VR and I just wanted to add that I thought that was classy yeah know the fans were good on I was there at good to support Wednesday the fans were really good on Wednesday as well and I think uh it’s just a shame how the rest of the evening went but uh Gio all the best for the rest of the season May the best team win on on Monday it’ll be very interesting I’ll be keeping a close eye on the events uh from West Ham for throughout next week as well and uh I’m sure I’ll catch you on the reverse fixture as well mate look after yourself yeah I’m looking forward to it we might both have new managers who knows mate thanks a lot buddy big thanks to Gio once again for jumping on the channel I make sure I leave a link uh to their
