West Ham (H) Post Match Thread

[heslops barnet]

Good gritty win after a tough week.
Didn't agree with Aguero and KDB starting, both looked very unfit and rusty. Eddie and Zinch also had very poor games.
But a win is a win, well done lads.

Thought Zinch was great today and put in a good shift

 

[Cheer Up Peter Reid]

That pumped up look after scoring reminds me of someone.

West Ham's best opportunity to beat us after a difficult Euro game midweek.

Not our best performance, but we ground out a result and ticked off our 20th win on the bounce.

TWENTY F*CKING WINS ON THE BOUNCE!!!

Never in my wildest dreams did I think we'll be here after the start we had.

What a team, what a manager, what a club.

CTWD!!!

This!

West Ham were second in the 10match form table behind us and we still won despite making a lot of changes and not playing particularly well. What champions do

Did Fernandinho get two yellows? I thought that’s what I saw, I also checked online and the text commentary says he got two yellows. Shhhh.

I thought that to ???

 

[sir baconface]

KDB has been finding fitness all season and still not found it.

You sound like Bono there

Are you calling @Marvin a cnut?

Hard fought victory against a much improved hammers team

Look jaded at times but 20 games in a row is fucking fantastic

 

[leeneel]

Incredible mentality on display to keep the winning run going.

To coin a phrase, the shark team is well and truly back.

Hammers played really well and look good for a top 4 spot.

13 points now ;-)

 

[jimharri]

I can well imagine!

Not at our best today but never really looked like losing at any stage. Apart from a really sloppy last 10 mins first half and then the chance West Ham got right at the end I think we managed to control the game quite well.

Sign of a good team to grind out the 3 points under any circumstances and to win 20 games straight is some achievement.

I don't want to be too critical of anyone, early kick off Saturday after playing CL away Wed night, with quite a few coming back from not playing and still manged to win against a decent side.

A few players had uncharacteristically off days though.

The forwards weren't really firing today so it was good that defenders can step up and get goals when needed.

They just need to decide which channels are showing the games from 13 March onwards that are not selected already They won't have 5 at 3pm on Sat, they will push 2 more games to Sunday 14th and 2 will be later on Sat 13th than already stated. City site saying 3 chosen for TV when they all...

Great, sporting, insightful analysis by likeable ex-Hammer Joe Cole. Good to see. Up there with Ally Macoist.

Wait, what??

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Our best 11 is

Eddie
Cancelo Stones Dias Zin
Rodri
Gundogan Bernardo
Sterling Jesus Foden

Fight me.

You are absolutely correct in terms of the overall balance and synchronicity.

I never thought I would see the day when it felt like we were shoehorning in Kev?

He's obviously not fit, but the gaps just aren't there when we play the line up you posted.

Even the second goal today came when Foden and Jesus pressed West Ham by the right left touchline.

Horses for courses, I suppose?

i thought he was very poor. pre-game especially alongside that ever stupid idiot who then went on to to commentary.

 

[MK-Blues]

I thought that to ???

no. he got only one second time. first time he didnt get booked.

 

[No1 was Colin bell]

I thought we were lethargic leggy and pretty sloppy today but fair enough after a hard mid week games. Although with so many changes maybe that’s not such a great excuse. But three points is all we really asked for today so that will do fine. Will be even better if Chelsea beat united. Brilliant from Diaz stones Fernandinho Zinchenko today. Nice to see Sergio back on the pitch even if he was a bit rusty then again so was De Bruyne who looked like he was playing with his eyes shut in first half and then played a peach of a cross out of nowhere. 20 wins on the bounce is incredible.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

As an aside, isn't is great to see West Ham have a proper competitive side again?

A proper club and I would love to see them finish in the top four or six, hopefully they go to United soon and really put the cat amongst the pigeons!!

Irony, Liverpool fans hoping City win the League Cup so they can squeak Europe.

If I were a Londoner, Irons would always be my team, genuine people, don't suffer fools, always like City fans, knowing what it is like to get the shitty end of the stick.

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Are you calling @Marvin a cnut?

Not quite.
I'd say he's more like the Edge.

I was worried when I saw the line up, but no need, our brilliant twin strikers did the biz. Today showed how hard the season will become for us if we go deep into the cups. Some tired players there, but loads of determination.
