Secretly your spot on..but they'll come for you.
Woeful half.

Walker and Mahrez are fucking stealing a living. We have a RB who can’t pass forwards and a RF who spends 99% of every game facing our own goal. I am sick to death of seeing this same half-arsed, couldn’t give a shit (unless we have a pen, then he’s well up for it) attitude from Mahrez. We are trying to win a league and he couldn’t give a toss.

Bernie is so lacking creatively it’s unreal. Fantastic in blood and thunder games but in games like this where it needs a bit of guile, he is often found wanting.

Everything is just too slow. West Ham are no good and probably can’t believe their luck so far.
 
We need to start drawing West Ham out, allowing more space for Alvarez to do his thang.
 
Funny enough, Haaland and Stones have been our best players, both passing and running well in the centre and in their box.

The issue is Bernie, Jack, and Riyad are not servicing them well. They have got in good positions but sent their pullbacks or crosses straight in to West Ham players.

They look to be reluctant to make through passes when we get occasionally get some space on the counter, as well. Could be a Pep instruction to maintain control, but as we say against Arsenal and Fulham, those are often the ways we eventually score our opening goals, which opens up the opposition to more, so removing them as possibilities is handicapping our attack.
