West Ham 1-0 Wolves: Verdict Thread

[The Bear]

Disappointing, in all of the starting XI, performance and result.

Clueless going forwards. Bruno needs to take the shackles off a bit earlier in games and get more bodies forwards to support the central striker.

Never even gave ourselves a chance.

Can't even call a MOTM out of that. Nobody qualifies.

 

[Nando]

Absolutely diabolical.

Shocking selection, inept tactics, too late to make a change and then brain dead decision making when in decent areas.

Nobody better than 4/10. Special mention to the Trincao/Hoever right hand side who can get in the sea.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Pathetic. Awful team selection. Awful performance. Well done on binning Europe.

 

[Alan]

3 GP, 1 GS, 6 GA for me this weekend.

This week can get fucked.

I also think genuine questions need to be asked about what the fuck the players do in training, because they seem to be making shit up as they go in games.

 

[Haggstone]

Crap.

 

[Carrotdude]

Clueless sums it up. We weren’t scoring if we played another 90 minutes. Our mentality is all wrong, zero attacking intent until we go behind and even then we have no idea how to go about trying to score a goal.

 

[Paul]

Came not to lose, enforced changes, lack of a plan, lack of ambition, I think Bruno would have gladly settled for a 0-0. just one slight flaw with the plan.........

 

[t3ch]

woof.

 

[Throbber3]

Insipid toothless performance. 12th league blank. Couldn’t score in a brothel. That starting line up gave up the game before a ball was kicked.

 

[Jinky]

We stopped playing after going 1-0 up against Arsenal & have deservedly left London with 0 points from 2 games.

Shocking starting 11 from Bruno today - so that’s on him. Shocking performances from multiple players. Shocking game management and tactics since taking the lead at the Emirates.

Kiss goodbye to any top 6 challenge. We’ll finish 7th or 8th now. Massive opportunity and it’s been thrown away.

I don’t want to see Trincao in the starting 11 again. Waste of a shirt and he’s a coward.

Rest of the season, I want us to go with this -

Sa
Jonny Kilman Coady RAN
Podence Neves Moutinho Neto
Raul Hwang

​

 

[jlo]

Didn't deserve anything from that. Credit vaguely goes to Sa for keeping it to only 1, and Neves for playing 3 roles in midfield by himself.

 

[StuardoWulf]

Not good 4 out of 10 . Someone said on another thread that we suffered from imposter syndrome.
I think that’s right

 

[Mel Evo]

How many more of our attacking players have to be described as shit before we start to seriously question Lage as the issue? Neto? We look to me like we’re being led by a coach who is over complicating the message. A leader would keep it simple, and should be able to get a tune out of those attacking options for me.

 

[CannockSy]

I dunno. Bruno is obviously more experienced than me, cus I dint get his decision on this one. Underestimated West Ham??

 

[malta mick]

Terrible team selection to start with. No attacking threat until Neto came on. Neves playing alongside Coady at times. We have good position outside their box and 2 passes and its back with Jose. Come on Bruno give us something to enjoy for gods sake, as its currently painful to watch

 

[Templeton Peck]

First 15 fine then shit. Second half I don't think West Ham had touched the ball until they scored.

Positives: Sa! Hwang and Silva better after HT.
Negatives: Saiss Marcal Trincao.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

Start with your best team and worry about changes later. If we end up swapping Traore for Trincao Barcelona will have pulled our pants down. He’s got a heart the size of a small pea and at 58 I’m more suited to PL football.

Silva ouR MOTM but bar is set lower than in the final of the limbo World Championships! Can only hope Lage learns from this, Liverpool beat West Ham next week and we beat Palace.

 

[CannockSy]

Bring back Bolly

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Worst right hand side I've seen since Hoddle's Maurice Ross/Jeremie Aliadière dream team. 30% pace throughout. No threat, dreadful goal to concede. Even Neves was shocking today.

Bad management, bad performance and a few players who are simply bad.

 

[GLASGOWOLF]

Sa - good
Hoever awful looks a pub player
Killman had a poor game
Coady not his usual composed player
Saiss was ok
Marcal fucking useless
Neves was good
Dendonker was poor
Wang showed some glimpses
Fabio second half was superb, 1st half anonymous.
Trincaou useless
