West Ham (A) - EFL Cup R4 - Post-Match Thread

[Pingu the Penguin]

Something like twenty chances created and wasted doesn’t strike me as throwing a game , he can’t put the ball in the net for them .

25 shots. More than enough

 

[Ric]

All good things must come to an end. Farewell sweet Carabao.

 

[Norbert D]

why are all the away teams booing grealish ?? i don't understand it he had a good world cup and everybody was cheering him on and willing him to score

because they are fucking morons, the same happened with Sterling. The MSM do their thinking for them.

 

[Boo or Boo-urns]

SSM blasting out the breaking news yellow ticker.

Read what I said: I said it isn’t the end of the world. Just as it wouldn’t be to go out of the fa cup. Because it eases congestion and allows to make a better fist of the premier league and champions league, both of which will be very competitive this year.

I didn’t say I wanted us to lose either so get off your big blue high horse. This is not a complicated or controversial point or one that anybody sensible would argue with.

your overreacting to my point, no need to be so condescending. have you read some of the shite on this forum when we lose I think my replies to you have been prettt sensible

I want us to win trophies. That’s all

 

[Semper aggressus]

Disappointing but could be to our advantage in the league as scousers and chavs will have more games now. It stings a bit now but as long as we win at least one other trophy then this is the least important.

Another 25 shots but no goals. Frustrating. I can’t help but wonder if we had a striker we’d have won that, and the CL final. Just hope the board sort that out in January or next summer. Can’t go on creating so many chances only to fuck them up, it’s unfair on this group of brilliant players. They must be as frustrated as us.

It becomes a cultural thing in some bizarre condemnation of the money in the game. The reality is that the game is so utterly tribal that it really is any crumb to criticise a superior opponent.

if its about money then sancho must have ear phones on when playing with the amount of boo's he will get

 

[chesterbells]

I hope they all stay away from each other and it’s a Chelsea v Liverpool semi final double header in January

Excellent point

 

[Salford in the City]

You just keep waiting for Sterling to produce, and tonight, in such an open game, was his perfect chance.

Sadly, alas not.

 

[eastmanc]

there’s no guarantee of that at all. I wouldn’t want city not to win cups just so we might win the champions league

win them all

Big teams go for all of them.

That starting eleven will never start in a PL nor CL game.

Reminded me of the sides Pep picked after it was obvious we were going to win the league last season.

I do wonder how fit Delap is. Did he get any minutes last night?

 

[oakiecokie]

Ah well at least I don`t have to drink that piss in the Green Man this season.
Every cloud ...

Manchester United are not new money so he won't be targeted.

Have you watched how out of form Sterling, Gundogan and De Bruyne have been this season and were tonight. Too many player playing tonight that are out of form and hardly any game time.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

God doesn’t will it

Good while it lasted

So, he willed it?

Someone to blame ;-)

45 and was quiet.

 

[mscenterh750]

We’re out so what. I can’t grasp why people get so wound up after a loss, it’s not the end of the world and we’ve no devine right to win every game. It makes me laugh the way people slate the players, manager and club after a loss.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Deserved that because of the kit.

we are watching a sterling that does not want to play for city anymore ? its simple

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

give fuck a couldnt , re-arrange as required , ive saved £250 and a trip darn sarth ,but if Chelski ,Dippers or Spursy win the cup it will be a stepping stone to greatness. Looking forward already to the bread and butter on Saturday , our five year unbeaten record in the League Cup has gone and something to be proud of , and thats all.
