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

Dominate them, tire them. Keeper off, their second biggest threat with knock, making them fear countering.

It’s the first 45 minutes of the season away from home to a side that gave us all manner of problems last season.

What did you expect, 0-5 at halftime?

So ball retention with barely any attacking?

I agree they will tire but it was a poor showing.

Yeah, first 5 they came at us as youd expect. But since they have done little. Lets hope that lasts

All that stemmed from a stupid pass from Cancelo. Other than that they have been poor. They have to come out more now but will probably leave it until 70 mins unless we score again.

A half away from being a perfect football weekend.

 

[WestGorton]

Perfect display in these hot conditions so far. Erling is dynamite.

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

People slagging Grealish off again. Sigh.

Fucking morons.

 

[jimharri]

By the looks of it, Sterling has left so Grealish is ģetting shite instead. BL matchday thread at its finest:)

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

Pep once again has a set up in a really different formation with the ball. The guy never fails to amaze me

 

[PragueBlue]

Jack's happy to stroll about in first gear and offer no assist or goal threat, take lots of touches and then pass it back 10 yards. That's all ok if Pep deems his contribution to be satisfactory.

I think Grealish has been fine and generally done what Guardiola will have wanted from him. Same with Foden on the other side. They aren't going to take unnecessary risks. Keep the ball and wear West Ham down.

 

[Bluescholar]

Football not for me. Imao. Are you watching the game?? Even pep is pissed at grealish's decision making

God knows what you're watching!

 

[Damanino]

creative skills of Foden, Grealish not much in use. lesser players could stick to the line and pass it back at smallest pressure or defender being close. bit surprise both Walker, Cancelo seems to play inverted fullback. probably watching out for bowen and track him from bit closer which is clever given what happened on last game;

fitness level still not high of our players, keep it bit slower today, try to keep this lead and i am happy.
