Description

It's difficult to find any more words of anger, disgust or sadness to describe the current situation at the club, but on this week's show Hammers legend Martin Allen summed it up perfectly.

Mad Dog believes the win over Manchester United a few months ago led the team to believe they'd completed their journey to becoming a top team and that everything else would naturally fall in to place and everyone would be happy.

He believes there are currently too many players in the squad who just aren't prepared to pull their weight and in order for West Ham to successfully make that transition from mid-table side to top-six contenders, playing "sexy soccer" in the process, the squad needs to instill a constant competitive mindset. Without that, it's just going to be more of the same.

Also on the show, James Jones and Will Pugh attempted to dissect that Spurs defeat last weekend and had a chat about the dire goalkeeping situation, while Will returned with a bang in the Rogue West Ham Players Quiz.

Despite the negativity around the club at the moment, this is surprisingly quite an upbeat show.
