The West Ham United supporting punters here in the Transfer Tavern have experienced a pretty troublesome season in relation to the last campaign and attentions will probably already be turning towards next season for the Hammers.

The ardent Hammers fans have been crying into their pint pots for the majority of the campaign and the landlord has had to use all of his social skills to make his regulars feel loved with their football team desperately struggling for form.

Croatian boss Slaven Bilic has struggled to make his team consistent this season and he will look to go back to basics next season in an attempt to push the Londoners on towards the higher echelons of the league.

Ahead of the summer, a group of West Ham fans have gathered in the Tavern to discuss the relevant changes that need to be made during the summer and the list of players that they feel should leave is endless.

Lee Clarke looks at two players who should be offloaded during the summer transfer window.

Diafra Sakho

The striker has not featured prominently for the Hammers all season and his days at the London Stadium surely look to be numbered.

The Senegalese striker is simply picking up a wage without playing any football and the Hammers could use the funds raised from Sakho’s sale to improve other areas of their squad.

One Hammers fan is enjoying a bottle of the landlord’s finest red wine and he thinks that Sakho is dreadful, stating that with an attitude as bad as his he should be flogged immediately when the window reopens.

James Collins

The Wales defender is 33-years-old now and his time playing Premier League football on a regular basis could be coming to an end.

Collins has struggled with injury this season and he could be moved on in the summer to make way for a younger central defender, who can be a consistent member of the Hammers’ team for years to come.

One West Ham fan is enjoying a Sunday Roast and waiting for the Sunday night football quiz to kick-off and he thinks that Collins has had his day now, stating that he should be moved on during the summer given his age.
