Match Thread | West Ham vs Man City (24/10/20)

[Brewster's millions]

Please drag Mahrez off I've a pain in my face looking at him half arsed knobhead.

Mahrez is the worst offender but none of the team (Walker apart) want to get on the end of things or make anything happen.

We're second to everything and going through the motions, as we do most weeks.

 

[blueballs84]

Haven't looked like scoring.

 

[Akpowell]

WHU very comfortable

 

[Josh_D]

I'd love to get a gif of that passage just before with Rodri in transition

Opposition on the backfoot and not set in their shape, instead of driving forward at speed and attempting a killer pass, Rodri takes a couple of slow awkward touches, sees he doesn't have any ability to attempt a forward pass, and goes back around 90 degrees to pass it to the backline

Diabolical

Saw that but I can’t complain. It’s at the point where I’m somewhat desensitised to it. Sigh.

 

[Robinho's Subbuteo]

West ham totally outplaying us.

No they aren't.

 

[Semper aggressus]

What would happen in a game if we also defended like West Ham? Think it'd work for us?

 

[ws01]

How Pep still doesn't see that Gundogan and Rodri don't work together and that Mahrez has turned into a chocolate teapot is beyond me.

hE's a gEnIuS

 

[ScottSinclair]

West ham totally outplaying us.

No we are just easy to play against.

 

[Blue and still suffering]

73% possession and one shot on target, City all over

We have lost our killer instinct

 

[argyle]

Far, far too many bad buys.

Hundreds of millions spent and we rely on one player in KDB.

 

[Kokonut1307]

Mahrez has to be the most mismatched player in this team. He just doesn’t suit our style of play.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Gundogan and Rodri as a midfield pairing is painful to watch.

 

[wolviedinho]

We have regressed badly. This is going to be a tough season. Top 4 will be an achievement

 

[Jamiblue]

Ffs is ridiculously predictable.
Must be so easy to defend against (unless you’re Ben Chilwell).

 

[Manchester_lalala]

How Pep still doesn't see that Gundogan and Rodri don't work together and that Mahrez has turned into a chocolate teapot is beyond me.

It’s worrying that we all can see the problem yet Pep can’t.

 

[domalino]

A one-legged De Bruyne is more likely to have a impact than the german joker. Fresh ideas please.

Don't really understand comments like this. Gundogan has been one of the only players who has created chances and been pretty good. He's also defended well, headed away a few corners and held up that West Ham attack when everyone else was jogging back - even escaped the card by letting go before bringing the player down.


Reverting back to the old scapegoats I suppose.

 

[Gordyola]

Mahrez....come on son, waken up

A man stealing a living

 

[christened at st marks]

Foden and Torres!! ASAP.

Pep was stupid not to start them after mid week.

Some fuckin hope before 75mins

 

[bobmcfc]

not difficult

We look mard as fuck. They are getting the ball off us so easy.

 

[Beanhead]

I absolutely loathe Garcia.. he’s awful. No redeeming features whatsoever.
