It has not been the best of times at West Ham United, with their latest defeat against Wolves hardly helping to lift the gloom at the London Stadium, as the Hammers were unable to kick on from their surprise weekend win over Chelsea.

With Manuel Pellegrini’s men failing to score at Molineux, it seemed as though some fans had had enough with record signing Sebastien Haller, whose fruitless 80-minute performance stretched his run without a goal to seven league matches.
Haller has only scored four times since arriving in East London, but just once since scoring three in his first three games – with his most recent strike coming in the Hammers’ defeat to Crystal Palace in early October.
However, some fans defended the 25-year-old striker, while others suggested he is not totally to blame for his barren run.
It is clear that parts of the fanbase are understandably frustrated at the moment, especially judging by this debate over what Haller gives to the club:
Haller offers nothing on his own…pointless signing when we play this system might aswell have kept Carroll #WHUFC #COYI

He doesn’t do anything, what’s the point of a £40m player if he can’t create any chances
