Season 3 Episode 5
Jack and Cal break down West Ham's latest move in the transfer market, signing Danish goalkeeper Mads Hermansen from Leicester City, discussing why signing a new goalkeeper was so crucial this summer, whether Hermansen solves the issues laid bare last season and where he can still improve.
They also talk about West Ham's win over Lille in the BOYLE Sports Cup on penalties at the London Stadium, finishing the Hammers' preseason ahead of the 2025/26 Premier League opener against Sunderland next Saturday. They speak about what made Lille a good test for us, why West Ham struggled so much in the first half, the positive changes made in the second half, the difference we saw in pressing structure.
They finish by wrapping up our preseason Breakdowns, asking who have been the standout performers and who they would start against Sunderland on the 16th at the Stadium of Light.
