West Ham (A) 17/12: Build-Up & Match Thread

[Squeak]

Absolute shite. These fuckers think they are safe from relegation already. This performance added to our last two has all the hallmarks of complacency. Bellegarde, Gomes and Sarabia all utter shite. Giving the ball away, not got a clue positionally and so slow that a snail would pass by them. Fucked off with the lot of them.

 

[The Bear]

Semedo has been utter shite up against Paqueta in their half.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Sarabia looked like an U12s player in that 50/50 then.

 

[Freddeno]

If we havent scored at HT get Kalajdzic on for Sarabia..and Doc for Semedo

 

[Wilf Wolf]

And just like that the priority in January became a keeper…

 

[PuntsWolf]

Sarabia and Bellegarde totally ineffective.

 

[jd1981]

We’re actually on poor run of form 4 straight away defeats incoming.

 

[Carrotdude]

After all the promising signs since Luton, we’re going backwards quickly under O’Neil

 

[Hereford Wolf]

We just can’t play a back four.

 

[The Bear]

Sarabia and Bellegarde totally ineffective.

I'd be taking one of them off at HT and putting RAN on.

 

[jd1981]

His choice to go to a back four this game is an odd one considering we’ve just played weaker opponents with a back five

 

[Tony Towner]

Those goals are bugger all to do with a back 4 other than the bizarre choice to start Toti at LB

 

[Carrotdude]

It’s surprising this doesn’t happen more tbh, our whole defence is pretty bad.

Agree with the first bit. No issues with Toti LB though

I think the priority should have been a keeper for the last two years.

 

[Freddeno]

Thats a YC for Coufal all week..but not against us

 

[MARKakaJIM]

No-one could complain at being subbed at this point.

 

[Del Woppio]

This is so fucking shit

 

[Squeak]

Just look at how we defend corners. Been lucky not to concede twice from corners earlier in the game.
This is what happens when you have a weak goalkeeper. The defence becomes clueless and they lack confidence.
When you add in defenders who have no awareness of where the attacker is and you have a recipe for disaster.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Jesus Christ, Bentley didn't even move until that was out for a corner, he's a joke.
