West Ham (A) 27/9 Build up

[prawnking]

We might go on to win 5-1, but right now I’m allowed to say it as I see it - and that first half was shocking.

Thread police incoming

How is it knee jerk? It was a genuine comment. We seem to have lost our counter attacking verve and I can't see what we've replaced it with. A bit more possession?

45 minutes = the final product?

You’re talking about evolution after 2.5 games...

Yep. Its a football forum, isnt it?

Allowed to talk about what I'm seeing, aren't I?

I'm not saying it's the final product, but I'm also not waiting two years to have an opinion about my own football club, if you guys don't mind

Part owner, are you?

Having an opinion is all well and good, but if people think you've come to a conclusion prematurely, they'll tell you so.

Credit where it's due- West Ham were very good in that first half. We could have conceded 3.
Saiss has been awful so far. Nothing coming off for Adama and Neto and Raul looks frustrated

You do say this a lot, you’re allowed to have an opinion and others are allowed the same about your opinion.

We are collectively better than how we are playing tonight against a team we should not lose to. Still time

Ridiculous from Coady, that. Why even touch him?

I will take a lucvky reflection, a var penalty or an og now and a point.

Antonio is like a lite version of Adama

Antonio giving our defence the run around. All three of Saiss, Boly & Coady all over the place. I’ve had enough of Vinagre now - he isn’t good enough. Semedo has blown hot and cold - understandable, I guess. Moutinho & Neves are neither giving us enough defensive cover OR enough support/men in the box when we actually attack. Difficult to see exactly *what* they’re offering at the moment?

Neto & Traore have both tried hard but I feel so sorry for them both. Sprinting 30 yards, beating men and then looking up to cross and seeing no one in the box - it must be demoralising for them. Raul has been fairy anonymous.

Reminders of last season going behind and needing to do it all in the second half.

As for the goal, the ball was moving and they took it about 5 yards ahead of where the foul was committed. Ref has done us over there but Saiss shouldn’t be backing off that much.

Stop being so precious!

Far too selfish from Neto again then. No link play what so ever from the front three. Just head down and run with it.

 

[t3ch]

ahhh come on neto

 

[Alan]

We just look so aimless in attack right now.

 

[Deleted Cyber]

Fucking zero end product from the front three. Fabianski can put his feet up and break out the cognac

 

[t3ch]

why wouldn't adama have cut inside there

How is it a conclusion?

I literally said I was confused. Does that sound like I have all the answers?

 

[Pablowolf]

Marco Gabiadini would DEFINITELY give Antonio a rim job, given the opportunity.
