West Ham United (A) | PL | Post-Match Thread

To me something has happened in pre season. Every single player and pep seem totally focused on the season ahead. There seems to be total unity and purpose right through the whole squad

That unity is what Pep strives for. It’s why we recruit on character as much as football ability. When it comes to TEAM, we leave the rest in the dust.

Guess Nunes isnt so rubbish afterall.

Guessing anyone of the hundreds here who said so won't give him any credit for that great pass.

It’s really weird that Pep ends up knowing more than some blokes on the internet.

Who thought what the fuck when he brought Nunes on FFS Pep?

some players seem to take a season to adjust to Pep methods then blossom -Kovacic is one of them

I thought he did alright last season to be fair, but the fact that we haven't missed Rodri this season says a lot about his growth and him learning the system. Keep it up lad!

 

[Stoned Rose]

This kid.

 

[SCEtoAUX]

Good win that.

 

[SWPISHOME]

Brilliant result, We should have killed them off in the first half but we fully deserved the points by far the better team.

Shout out to Kovacic, The lad is a fucking fabulous footballer! Rico, KDB, Bernie all superb.

Haaland, The best striker the league has ever seen. He's a monster.

Micah - just shut up.

I'd rather listen to Keane

It just doesn't seem fair to all the other teams...

We're too good.

JJ

And to think getting Stones in and back up to his best... Rodri doing the same and Foden...

Have to focus on the fundamentals, no switching off, support each other.

Haaland is putting the misses of last season behind him and he appears to be absolutely focused. He was disappointed on two occasions after the hatrick of chances he may have been able to capitalize on.
I worry a little about KDB as it feels 80+ minutes simply isn't in him anymore especially given his injury history but realize he's the type who'd rather play until something breaks vs. managing minutes.

Just happy to see this team... wish i could have got in the match thread but my son is home from first year at uni.

Go City!
