West Ham - Post match thread

Incredible performance - and credit due where credit is due.

Txiki's recruitment doesn't look so bad after all lol.

Sane, Sterling and Jesus are looking terrifying together. Aguero quite rightly on the bench last night. Anyone else agree that he certainly has a lot of improving to do to deserve a place back in the starting 11?

Fresh legs at full back, and defensive midfield and things could come together so nicely for a long long time.
 
Boring fact of the day (lifted off the caff) ; City have scored the same number of first half goals at The London Stadium as West Ham have this season.
 
One of our best "Pep" performances. There was a really good balance, coupled with some really good off the ball movements.

Jesus is doing what Aguero should be in terms of movement. De Bruyne looked his usual class act and Raheem is getting better by the week, as for Sane, phwoar - what a player.

Also think Otamendi and Stones deserve credit, they dhackled Carroll and Antonio very well.
 
Well done City. Truly impressive performance that will give a lot of confidence through the whole squad. We have a fresh bunch of kids in the front line that seems to have been together for years. And it reflects on the rest. We really do seem to like the West Ham pitch. But let's not get carried away again. We can do if we can put together a string of wins playing this kind of wonderful football.
 
Youngsters looked great upfront

The old guys silva and yaya just look imperious.

Defence looked solid with a keeper

Something about our system and West Ham just clicks.

Great midweek results.
 
That was a pleasure to watch. So many positives with that performance, the front three were exceptional with Leroy just pipping the MoM imo. Kev, Dave and Yaya just ran the match and I am still pinching myself thinking back to last season where if we had played those three in midfield we would have been overrun. If anyone really wants to understand why Pep is rightly lauded as the best coach in the world they should look at his handling of Yaya and the resulting outcome. I am not a Bravo basher, I understand the reasons he was brought to the club but some time on the bench may help him rebuild his confidence. Thought Willie did great, like he has all season. Best game in a while for Stones and Ota had a very effective game. Considering the standard of the opposition though, lets not get carried away at this point. Would like to see a proper run put together first (then i'll get carried away).

In five years time, Silva, Touré, Nasri, Hart, Aguero, Zabaleta, Kompany and Fernandindo will all be done or close to done at the top level.
Also in five years time De Bruyne, Jesus, Sterling, Sané, Iheanacho, Stones and Gundogan will be in the prime of their careers.

Swings and roundabouts.

The difference is that we have players like Sancho, Diaz, Dele Bashiru, Gonzalez and others coming through
We didn't have that before and had to spend big repeatedly.
