West Ham (H) - Post-Match Thread

Or we would have just stepped it up

Maybe. Had City not had the PSG game in our legs/heads I think we would have played a much better game.

This was just a game you set out to win.

Rice is a similar kind of player to Gaz Baz a superb 7 to 8 out of 10 player week in week out but other fans sometimes just don’t see it. Rag bound I fear.

Anyone know when Phil, Jack and KDB are back ?

not sure on Foden and Grealish as they're injured, but KDB has done his isolation period so for him to be available he has to return a negative Covid test

Great 3 points again against a very difficult opponent in West Ham. So glad we got this one Over the line. Well done blues. Was there another fire drill today? 2.00 ko and people leave early. What is so important haha

You know how long it will have taken people to get home with the conditions today? I stayed to the end as my train leaves from ashburys and my wife was taking care of the kid.

But some will have had to drive, others canceled trains. Football isn't as important as family commitments - why is that so hard for supporters to in understand. It's more embarrassing all the sad twats on here who don't understand that football isn't the end all be all.

Excellent result. It takes some getting used to this new typical City. Serial winners.

Only downside was the undersoil heating shorting-out and blowing the buggy service.

How good is Rodrigo. The Guvnor.

indeed different players for different positions - Di Canio and Payet were amazing to watch over a 2 year period at their peak but nowhere near 100 mill players.
Rio. Carrick. Lampard all brilliant but sold off so young, so never got the chance to see them at their peak.
tevez and mascherano were a shambles and took a long time to settle, but tevez a hero for his Man U injury time winner goal to keep us up.

Rice is better than all them for West Ham.

Always feel the hammers fans really know their football. For what it's worth I was very impressed with how he breaks up play can really tackle properly, so bit ahead of Rodri there, but Rodri bit slicker in possession. Both excellent players imo.

Thought we played well, West Ham are no push overs. If only we had a decent striker upfront we would be winning these games by 4 goals. We miss so many chances. I think Rhodri is getting better and better, he was my Motm today.

Back in the day, they'd have just sent Ronnie and Reggie round to have a word with him. Then back to the Blind Beggar and all gather around the the old Joanna for a bit of Mother Brown.
"Is this the liboiiiwey"?

Or as Ronnie used to say - "A pint of Luger and lime"!!
