Is Julien Faubert the key to West Ham making the top six?

I Don't Think He's As Creative As Solano But Faubert Seems To Be More Of A Direct Winger And Gets Behind Defences With Well Timed Runs .. I Suppose We'll Have To See Though .. I Hope He Is The Muts Nuts .. And George Mcartney For Hammer Of The Year!

'Most people have yet to see what Faubert can offer' You said it yourself, yet then write the headline "Is Julien Faubert the key to West Ham making the top six?" Pointless question, pointless title

Maybe so. Have you seen this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAcMg1ZkIX0&feat ure=related Whatever his impact, can't wait to see him playing for the Hammers.

Watch the footage pal, you might see what west ham are missing out on- Kieron Dyer without the injury frailties and a few years younger!! Cant wait

He looks a cracking player, from what little I've seen of him, but the added advantage to his nifty wing work, is that he started off life as a right back, and that can be very handy for overlapping with Neill.

Is it a case of us hammers fans expecting a bit too much? Top Six? I'll settle for 10th. No way will we make top six, and to be honest I don't expect us to even with all our players back.

I watched Faubert play,and although it was only pre season,what i saw was a fast paced guy with real potential.It was a shame he got injured shortly after that game,but can't wait to see him in the clare n blue soon.

I think everyone's expecting way too much from west ham. were a good team and i'd settle for a top ten finish but i dont see us making it into the top six for another two or three years. i think that although faubert's a great player craig bellamy's what were missing now and when we get him and ashton playing together again we could have a top team - but not top six.

I agreee to with you Mark to quite a degree,but I don't think it will take three years for top six.i believe next season will be our breakthrough,but top ten this year I agree

I don't think winning 7 of the last 9 games is "seemingly cheating relegation"......

I for one am excited about the prospect of having our players off the injury list. With Bellamy, Faubert, Ashton and Parker, we have 4 potetial world class players adding to an already high potential team. Top 6 is a must and a real possibility if we secure 70% of our points between now and the end of January.

I am not in agreement with some other supporters who do not believe when all are fit we can break into the top 6,apart from the so called big 4 i believe we have a squad to match any other team and it is up to us to proove as we did at the end of last season that on our day we can beat anyone at the boleyn or at their place and that is something west ham teams in the past have not been good enough to do.

Give the poor guy a chance. It normally takes 6 months to a year for a player to settle down to the tempo and physicality of english football. When you;ve been injured for 6months its even harder. I don't think we'll see anything like the best of Faubert until the start of next season at the earliest. He does look like a great signing though

faubert is good but a bit over rated, the Hammers defence is 2nd best in the premiership at the moment, so faubert will probably have to fight for a place in 1st team.

I don't think Faubert is overrated,he has pace and determination,plus skill.Just wait and see when he's back
