Exclusive by Alessandro Schiavone in Madrid Will Still joked that he wouldn’t be able to coach the Hammers given his love of the club. Still grew up in Belgium supporting West Ham and has privately and publicly never made it a mystery that the London Stadium is his Holy Grail. Only three years ago, Still was hailed as one of the most budding and up-and-coming managers in world football when he led lowly French side Stade Reims to a 19-game unbeaten run. Just a year after walk

No fun at the Holte this time for the Irons Premier League Aston Villa (1) 2 McGinn 15, Watkins 68 West Ham United (0) 0 The good news for the Hammers is that Spurs, Forest and Leeds remain on their radar. The Irons had put together a decent run of results to claw themselves to within range of the teams just outside the bottom three but on Sunday reverted to the less impressive version of themselves as they slipped to a disappointing defeat at Villa Park. A goal in each half

Lights, cameras, action: Picture by David Rake Premier League West Ham United (1) 1 Mavropanos 35 Manchester City (1) 1 Silva 32 It was not the win that would really have sent extra shivers down Tottenham spines, but here was a precious point for the Hammers which draws them level with the team they most want to overhaul.

The Hammers are through to a home quarter-final against Leeds United - what an occasion that should be - after holding their nerve in the shoot-out that followed a 120-minute stalemate. They hit five perfect pen

Last week we told you about the next budding talent to come out of the famed Slavia Prague academy in the name of Mubarak Suleiman. This week we have asked his manager Jindřich Trpišovský about how far the youngster, who is currently winning every popularity contest in the Czech Republic after hitting the ground running, can go. Yet despite his pace, trickery and grace Trpišovský is of the opinion that Suleiman is better suited to Italian football than our London sides. He t

Old Father Thames - oh mist rolling in from.... : Picture by @YTJourno Premier League Fulham (0) 0 West Ham (0) 1 Summerville 65 So who's need was going to be the greater? Would Fulham's desire to get into the European conversation prevail or would it be the Hammers' survival instincts? The first half offered few clues. The game was a morass of mistakes and scrappiness. It always seemed likely that an error would decide it and it was the Hammers who made the most of it when C

By Alessandro Schiavone in Prague West Ham United famously love a Slavia Prague talent when they see one. And to this day the Hammers have yet to regret dialing the Czech giants’ IBAN and transfer money. Because it’s always been cash well spent and rarely did they have to pay top dollar for it. Vladimir Coufal, Tomas Soucek and El Hadji Malick Diouf have all gone on to taste terrific success after swapping southeast Prague for the eastern part of London. Coufal was a reliable
