West Ham - Post match thread

[Ric]

Excellent performance tonight, and Guardiola was vindicated with some big calls. Plenty of reasons to be positive, and that front three are only going to get better and better.

Pep: "The gap is too big, just Chelsea can lose the Premier League. But we'll fight until the last day to qualify for the Champions League."

10 points.... surely a team has blown as big a lead given that it's what, the beginning of February?

Just read on BBC site I share the same birthday as Jesus. Praise the lord!

Man City: Caballero (7), Sagna (7), Kolarov (7), Stones (8), Otamendi (7), Sterling (9), De Bruyne (9), Silva (9), Toure (8), Jesus (9), Sane (9)

Skysports ratings and, for once, it looks like they were impressed.

He would prob look a bit stupid if he started banging on about titles so whilst he won't be giving up anything, he won't be bigging it up.

When we bought Sane, we forgot to flip his switch from Demo mode to Full mode. Sorted now. What a player. His height gives him an advantage as well.

A 19 yr old in a new country and at a new club, it was always going to take time and patience.
Just some modern day fans don't have that.
That's not a dig at your post, by the way. Just a dig at those that were calling him shit after
2 games.

That front five of Silva, De Bruyne, Sane, Sterling and Jesus was just unplayable tonight. West Ham let us play and didn't put pressure on the ball but I don't think anyone could have stopped us the way we played in fairness.

Sane just plays like someone has created him as a player on FIFA, it should be impossible to be that big, strong, quick and have such incredible technique.

How was the 6th guy? What's his name, I forget now :p

Great performance. Looked a lot more comfortable at the back with Willy in net. Looked like he was actually communicating with his defenders.

Front 3 as special and were quality tonight. Full of pace and running. Sane MOM for me.

Such fine margins in football, Score a penalty against Everton at home, KDB scores instead of hitting the bar against Spurs and a draw at home to Chelsea and we would be 5 points better off while Chelsea 2 points worse off.

A 7 point swing and the table would be so different.
