Match Thread | West Ham vs Man City (15/05/22)

Entire back four are awful, all stepping out at different times, with zero recovery pace because Walker isn't there to bail us out.

Zinchenko doesn't know where his man is, Fern is just playing stupid in the head going so high on Antonio.

I've got to say, Ederson is getting nowhere close to making saves.

Only Jesus is showing any time of urgency.

This is always going to happen when you take Phil out of the team and have Grealish and Mahrez slowing us down.

How unfit must Ake be to be on the bench.

How Mahrez and Grealish are starting is beyond me. Neither take responsibility. Mahrez fine when you're 4-0 up and need a tap in scoring but he never ever changes a game.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

The sooner Zinchenko fucks off playing left back the better, he cost us the CL final last year, and he is now fucking this because he’s not a defender.

Utter fucking horse dung.

 

[jollylescott]

I’d bring on Phil and Raz straightaway. One of the biggest games of the season and Phil is benched?

 

[Mancity1980]

I feel it’s gone if we don’t get a draw.

We are 3 points ahead with a better GD. Unless Liverpool start scoring a lot more goals we will still win the league with a defeat here.

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

That’s not true.

We could lose this 4-0, Liverpool win 0-4 at Southampton, and we go into the final game relying on Wolves.

Why or how would we lose this 4-0? Are we really that bad now?

 

[WorthlessPoster]

I mean, we CAN afford to lose this one. Am still confident Pep will guide us to the title.

 

[dromoreblue]

Thinking about preserving our goal difference now. It could all but disappear here.

 

[Sir Joe Aguero]

Is Ake injured? Giving ourselves a lot to do on final day of the season. Liverpool will put 5 past Southampton.

 

[hateutd]

No hope today,and im feckin afraid for the next game also with such psychology.... :(

 

[BLUEBOY67]

laporte and ferny are not fit and zinky is not a left back . I alway prefer ake instead but not sure he’s fit either

Both goals down to Zinchenko - appalling defending - we have had three years to sort a proper left back - no excuses

 

[Tricky_Trev]

put alisson in goal and neither goals go in

To be honest, there’s no disputing that.

 

[BlueNirvana]

so we will just have to smash villa next week :)

 

[GazM]

How the actual fuck are you losing to West Ham?

Dunno. All part of the cunning plan to keep the Red vermin on the hook until next weekend. Either that or we're spineless.

 

[Deleted member 77198]

Before they scored, the extra pace and movement of Foden and Sterling would have unlocked them. Mahrez and Grealish have contributed nothing. The defensive line has been hopeless against Antonio to Bowen.

That’s conjecture.

You’re spot on about Grealish and Mahrez. They’ve been shit. But Foden and Sterling were our worst two players the other night at Wolves. They might have been just as shit here.

 

[Daz-Simp]

Every single post you’ve made on this forum has been full of complete shite.

You’re either here on a windup, or a fucking moron. I’m not sure which.

Ah fuck off. I'm right.

 

[Bazzmand Show]

Foden needs to come on now

 

[Afterthefact]

When both wingers hold up play it’s not a good recipe against a defense that’s going to sit in. Jams everything up and develops so slowly that it pulls our defense up and makes us that much more vulnerable to counter.

we haven’t exactly taken west ham seriously in that this is exactly what they would have hoped we’d do.

 

[Legal Alien]

Grealish needs to have space, yet Bernie and Zinchenko are crowding him out. Zinchenko needs to mark Bowen and start defending only!

Get Fernandinho and Mahrez off now and Ake and Sterling on.

My 5-2 prediction is still on though.

COME ON CITY!!!

 

[Pedestrian]

Foden plays every game when fit. Very strange to play that front three together.

 

[daztrueblue91]

2-3 anyone? Believe we just need 1 early.

Game is over at this point.

When do we ever come from behind to win a game?
