Match Thread | West Ham vs Man City (16/09/23)

[Stoned Rose]

Doku didn’t track back well and it will be addressed. But your attackers are going to give the ball away at midfield occasionally and you need to be able to defend it. We had numbers back and somehow conspired to leave an unmarked man. Doku made the first mistake but imo is not at fault for the goal. There’s no excuse for our not having defended that situation better

Yes but it shouldn’t have got to the point where their guy is looking up and floating a cross in. Doku should’ve been breaking his balls to get back and, at the very least, mither the **** to death.

Pep will have fucked him up and down in front of everyone in the dressing room.

You don’t work hard, you don’t break your balls, you don’t play.

That aside, Doku played really well.

Overall we have been good, we have controlled the ball, should of scored 2 minimum, there goal was classic West Ham this season and should of known better but they are playing probably their best football under moyes! Hopefully haaland will bury the next 2

 

[Burtonblue]

Fuck me there’s some fannies on here!
Actually playing well and should be at least 3-1 up.
They’ve had the rub of the green so far and taken full advantage of our mistakes.
It happens.
We have 45 to turn this around and I’m confident we will.

 

[East Level 2]

How quickly people forget and turn on their own because of one bad half.

FFS. The thread is about the game today. Not about Haaland's contribution since he arrived.

 

[PragueBlue]

Created enough chances to be well ahead but just haven't taken them. Overall I think we've played well without being at our best. Alvarez looks a bit off it (perhaps not surprising after all his travelling) and Haaland has been unusually sloppy in front of goal.

Keep creating, sort out our finishing and we should still win this.

 

[BolinCell]

Walker should be retiring from international football instead he's running around like a madman on England duty these days. So much so he's fucked when he gets back to City.

 

[homerdog]

Why exactly? He’s looked complete shit since he joined.
plus he looked shit when we battered them, maybe you’re the twat not me.

I called you an idiot, not a twat, but if the cap fits...

 

[jimharri]

We can't be any worse in the second half (hopefully)

Have we actually been that bad overall? Usual bossing of possession, 17 shots to three (7 on target to two); if the lanky Norwegian bloke had his shooting boots on.no one would be complaining about the actual performance.

 

[Galvanoth]

We turn this around easy on second half

 

[Keeper!]

It’s a freak scoreline that’s all

Not at all, WH are a very good side , full of confidence, tough game this one.
