    It makes a change to have to have more than one to choose from.
    We've been doing this since 2023/24 now, and here are the times when we've all voted for the same player (in reverse chronological order):

    22nd March 2026: Aston Villa 2 - 0 West Ham United. 16 votes for Konstantinos Mavropanos.

    25th May 2025: Ipswich Town 1 - 3 West Ham United. 17 votes for Jarrod Bowen

    19th May 2024: Manchester City 3 - 1 West Ham United. 13 votes for Mohammed Kudus.

    27th April 2024: West Ham United 2 - 2 Liverpool. 15 votes for Jarrod Bowen.

    14th April 2024: West Ham United 0 - 2 Fulham. 10 votes for Lukasz Fabianski.

    9th December 2023: Fulham 5 - 0 West Ham United. 7 votes for Jarrod Bowen.

    25th November 2023: Burnley 1 - 2 West Ham United. 13 votes for Mohammed Kudus.

    4th November 2023: Brentford 3 - 2 West Ham United. 8 votes for Mohammed Kudus

    It happened 6 times in 2023/24, so we know it can happen, but only twice in following two seasons.

    alderz, It's a good thing we aren't playing Sheffield Wednesday in the Carabao Cup then! =)

    Maybe he needs to be taken out of the starting line up and used as a late substitute when the opposition attack is tiring.
    And maybe he needs some more coaching on how to cross.

    Not sure why Scarles gets beaten up for every mistake he makes, just like Kilman last season.
    100% this. Young players make mistakes sometimes, and need some patience. If we can’t afford them that patience we can’t bemoan a lack of young players coming through.
    Think thats an oversimplification tbh

    Scarles is a young player yes and does need some time, but hes also a professional footballer on a professional footballers contract

    This isnt a charity, we dont integrate youth players for the sake of it, if we did then we'd have hung onto Hines, Stanislas, Cullen, Coventry, Alese and so on and we'd be in league 1

    I said multiple times on the transfer thread before the season began I'd be happy with Scarles and Mayers as LB options

    He's started 4 of our first 5 games and hes struggled in most of those (and directly lost a few points)

    There were 2 instances yesterday he played suicidal balls in our defensive 3rd under a little pressure but not exaclty loads and they got chances from it. He had a out 4 or 5 instances to cross from a dangerous position and all were awful, some couldn't beat the first man, one was floated directly to the keeper and a few didnt get within 10 metres of one of our players. He also knocked the ball out under zero pressure

    Just because hes young, doenst mean I think he had a good game

    Was at the game with my sister yesterday who watches little football and even she could see he was struggling and mentioned his head kept dropping everytime he made a mistake

    Hes got potential, but atm he feels like hes got a massive error in him every game, and so far he kind of has

    Comfortable win against a poor team. Should have been 5-0 but can't have it all.
    Mukasa is so assured for an 18 tear old. Good performances all over the pitch. Not sure why Scarles gets beaten up for every mistake he makes, just like Kilman last season.

    And to top it all managed to meet up with MrsG. ⚒

    How much have Spurs paid us now? Kudus and Fernandes have cost them a fortune and they are still useless 😅

    Sadly Spurs got lucky with a disallowed Forest winner. Fernandes already struggling to keep his place and only an 83rd minute sub, got a yellow in the 84th minute and that was his match.

    Kudus also came on as a sub, by my watch Kudus should be entering his sulking stage and thinking he is better than this about anytime now.

    On the way back, thought that was a comfortable win made uncomfortable in the 2nd half for a 20 minute period where we lost our rhythm

    Thought Mukasa was class, not sure hes a central midfielder but hes doing bits

    Engels worries me how often his passing was off, but he put his foot in and put some good challenges in. But need more from him

    Thought the defence was largely untroubled althought thought Scarles was poor, his crossing was awful and his passing was off especially under pressure, even if he was largely solid defensively

    Thought Piroe was class, Taty also good. Bowen was a bit wasteful but really positive and taking the game by the scruff of the neck.

    Solomon was good, but too often he could've got his head up and passed instead of trying to dribble into trouble

    All in all, a really good 3 points
