Jan Paul van Hecke (rumour)

To clarify, I’m not writing him off just yet - that would be daft. What I will say, the very early signs aren’t that great and that opinion seems to be shared from the match threads of the few glimpses we have had (natural talent normally stands out and given the West Ham fan views I thought we would have seen those glimpses even after a minimal game time). When Neil stuck 09 on for Ballard instead of Alese that spoke volumes and Neil sees him a lot in training. Hope he becomes the greatest thing since sliced bread but only time will tell.

I think he missed a canny easy chance against Norwich at home, went to the supporters club afterwards and my mate in the bar said "Here lads, this fucker thinks Niall Quinn is a good player" I think I was proven correct

Alese is left footed, therefore left side.

He’s not going to play Alese right central defender though when he’s all left footed though. It’s really not hard to understand

Neil would change the shape of the team before he would put Alese into the position O'Nien (and previously Ballard) is playing in. It's like whinging that Roberts didn't come in to replace Evans when he was injured.

Roberts is left footed and plays right wing.

Huggins plays either side if ever fit. O’Nein and Neil have both played left back. Every single CM we have is right footed (Embleton isn’t a CM), and we usually play two right-footers in there.

The best players, play.

Not disagreeing (and don't think he's ready to start anywhere yet) but it's funny how we say that about left footed centre backs but don't seem to have the same issue with a right footed CB playing on the left side.
