Match Thread | West Ham vs Man City (07/08/22)

I dont give a fuck how they played. We offered next to nowt going forward...if it wasn't for haalands godlike pace that overcooked ball from gundo would have come to nothing too.

That's the spirit.

 

[Keeper!]

Go on then, I'll bite. Tell me what you'd do with Cancelo. Please, educate me. He's been off his game today, and has picked up a yellow card. One more mistimed tackle and he's off.

And if my Aunt had a dick, she would be my uncle

Also - I’ve literally not seen us score a penalty that sure since Balotelli and peak Yaya.

Fuck me, maybe we’ve finally got someone who’s not totally shit at it.

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

I mean, he really has been poor

He just doing nothing...not taking on his man, his crosses aren't landing, he's just been soooo passive it's

I thought he was very controlled. Always available. Doesn’t lose possession.

If the second half stays the same as the first West Ham will be bolloxed with 20 minutes to go.
Let’s see how they deal with both wings then.

I can see a some point Grealish being subbed & Phil moving to the left.

 

[RayCTID]

So has Mahrez lost his penalty duties :p

Wait and see when both are on the pitch to find out who takes them.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

I think jacks issue is that our general play is so slow he's just struggling to suddenly up the pace...which is clearly what he needs to try and do in his position. He's cruising...

My stream just pointed out a glorious opportunity to play Haaland in and he played the safe pass instead. He seems to take way less risks for us than he does for England, for example.

 

[whipper]

Yep. The BM whipping boy. The king (Raheem) is dead, long live the King (Jack).

Made me chuckle fella, not sure why as it's a true statement. :)

 

[kun]

It’s not hate. As @paulchapo said we are all City fans and we want him to do well, but his total contribution today (and in most of the games he has played for us) is a bunch of square and back passes. This is not the player we thought we were getting for £100m.

Are you just not watching the game?
This is pure fiction.

 

[Burtonblue]

Cancelo is one frustrating bastard
He is capable of absolute brilliance and proper shit within seconds
He’s so gifted
His decision making needs to improve though

 

[remember arthur mann]

I think he's being shackled by Pep but it's probably all part of a cunning plan.

never any doubt, this guy is a machine

 

[wolviedinho]

Need to up the tempo abit but other than that decent first 45 considering we are undercooked. West Ham will be dangerous so no sloppy passing second half.

 

[oldius]

People slagging Grealish off again. Sigh.

Fucking morons.

Just as they did with Mahrez, Rodri, Gundo and others. They will wait all game for a mistake, so obsessed are they with their desire to say I told you so.

It's been a dominant performance against a dangerous foe; support the boys.

 

[deano ou812]

Cancelo some of his touches and passing wow makes it look so easy and if he’s just having a knock about..

 

[manimanc]

 

[jimharri]

And if my Aunt had a dick, she would be my uncle

That is true. But you still didn’t tell me what you'd do.

 

[Ajm1985]

They are doing really well to keep possession and making West Ham run a lot in the heat.

Haaland is just a ridiculous specimen

 

[BlueAnorak]

The Stablo flourescent yellow shirt with black marker stripes is actually growing on me

 

[I'm Blue]

I mean, he really has been poor

He just doing nothing...not taking on his man, his crosses aren't landing, he's just been soooo passive it's

Yet he’s been twice as good as Kev.
Not many calling him out.
