West Ham (H) Post Match Thread

A big big win.

Agree with all that.Worryingly,Kev is fucking up even short passes.I'm sure he'll come through it but in the meantime he seems to be inhibiting Gundo so we have two players operating below their best.

Kev is always like that after being out I've noticed. Takes him a few games to come up to speed and find his range of passing. That being said his ball for Dias was superb so I'll let him off. : )

O

Pep rolled the dice and got very lucky today imo! Too many changes in one go but 20 wins in a row is truly magnificent!

if we want to be strong towards the end of the season I don’t think he has any choice. 7 perhaps too many esp given Kev and Sergio were never going to have great games given their condition.

A big big win.

You could say "MASSIVE"!

 

[madden150]

You sound like Bono there

As much sense too.

 

[SWPISHOME]

Very impressed by West Ham today

As much as I can't stand him, Lingard is playing well he causes us problems today drifting in between the lines and running at us. They are really well organised but then again they will be judged more on playing teams around them when they have to come out of their shape more. That Coufal is a very good player.

The second half after Jesus came in was a much more controlled display, and after the goal I think we just held to the score. The sign of champions that. I think after this game the rest will loose any hope they had we would falter. Well done City...still one game at a time...lots of season left to play

Typical filthy cockneys!

Yer've got a bit of that right, jim! They're cockneys, but not typically filthy - Haringay, 'n Islington are typical filthy cockneys!

Hard fought win.
West Ham are a decent team.
Lingard impressed me, I always thought he was shit, maybe it was just the club he used to play for.

He usually plays well at the Etihad (for a mediocre player)

Eeee, I forgot about Jessie Weasel! Jeez, had I remembered he would have scored. Glad he wasn't on my radar.

 

[give it to gordon]

sounded like a tough game and well earned 3 points. Was always going to be tough with players coming back from injury and some not played much, but City need to get all players up to match fitness.

 

[OntarioBlue]

i don’t understand, where’s the greatest manager of all time, Sir Alex Rednose, in that list?

 

[SWP's back]

A coupe of players have played themselves out of starts in the big games to come.

 

[chaddblue]

Stones / Dias partnership
Scored 5
Conceded 3
Mind blowing !!!

 

[remember arthur mann]

Ederson 5 Walker 8 Stones 9 Dias 9 Zinchenko 8 Gundo 7 Dinho 8 KDB 6 Mahrez 7 Aguero 5 Torres 5

Was that Dan Walker ?

 

[chesterbells]

Another fantastic result and performance. Different skill set today, not about artistry and free-flowing football, but showing resilience and digging in when required.

Stones and Dias outstanding, as was Zinkchenko, who like Cancelo, is revelling in his role as a lb, stroke deep lying midfield playmaker. Walkers pace saved us on a number of occasions also.

KDB not at his best, but provided the decisive moment when required as did Mahrez. Fern put in a typical Fern performance breaking up play and linking things together.

Others positives game time for Torres and Aguero. Fantastic three points and another banana skin averted. Great effort lads

Agree with everything there mate, aside from your comment on Fernandinho who I think was a bit below par today, esp in his possession and distribution.

 

[SWPISHOME]

Watching the game at 1-1 you sat their thinking "this little weasel face **** is going to get the winner".

 

[M12Blue]

Very impressed by West Ham today

Agreed, also no shithousery from them. Although tight games are a harder watch I quite enjoyed it

[chaddblue]

Didn't watch the 2nd half?
Are you Man or are you
ME!
Bit like that myself mate.
Couldn't bear to watch the last five minutes.
Keep walking in and out of the tele room as the clock winds down pretending not to care whilst quietly sh1tting myself.
For some reason I hate watching the game on the television on my own at home.
At the ground or on the tele in the club I'm fine.
Don't know why that is.

I'm the same

I reckon you somehow feel totally helpless alone in front of the TV and in the ground you see thousands of others around you going through the same emotions which in a way calms you down... safety in numbers etc
