West Ham United (A) | Post-Match Thread

[Gingers Dad]

Behave, he'll be playing.

Correct. I've had a post match moan about certain players but there were plenty below par today. By next week we don't need any negativity coming from the fans

 

[madloaf]

I don’t get why people are stressed Southampton beat them last season and they had a tough FA cup final and will be hung over.

Southampton aren't beating them.

 

[zandvoort blue]

That point will make all the difference

 

[Scottish Cityzen]

Agreed, the only thing I'd question was the clear penalty Jesus should have got, I have no idea how someone could watch that on a reply and not give a penalty.

Even Neville said that was a penalty, suppose it was more subtle but the type PR37 or Salah gets regularly.

 

[Bald fraud]

And why is that?

Because they’re shit

 

[CPPSC]

Well we couldn't even beat West Ham and it'll mean more to Villa to spoil it than it did to the Hammers today. We don't seem to have much bottle in this side.

Hey lar calm down

 

[OntarioBlue]

“Couldn’t even beat West Ham”

You mean the team which had a free mid week, the team which are a European semi finalist, the team which beat Liverpool at home this season?

When you’ve got 3 of your 4 best defenders out it’s hard to go to places like this and rack up the wins.

You talk far too much sense to be on here !

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

They both need to come in next week as starters for Mahrez and Grealish don’t they?

Grealish was good in the 2nd half

bollox.

 

[yeah whatever !!]

he was an amazing central midfield player and id argue the main reason the 17/18 team was able to play 5 attacking players and get 100 points.

but he should have been let go last season as he has been useless this year. he was rubbish at centre back 2 years ago and things have deteriorated. the other options of a youth player at centre back would have (only in my view of course) been a much better idea

the defence is on the back foot, full backs playing conservatively and they are not comfortable as a unit. we could well have conceded 4 or 5 today.

as to my respect and language this is an internet football forum for chrissake. put your nappies on.

Put my nappies on pal.. youre the one who made the childish comment FFS.

Egan-Riley looked sound for his recent cameo. That could move Cancelo over to the left, albeit he is also a liability at the back.

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

I’ll tell you what. No way do Liverpool not take that chance if it falls in their lap (as it often does).

If Liverpool are so clinical and ruthless why are they are a point behind us desperate for us to slip up on the final day of the season?

 

[levets]

He hasn't missed one for us since 2018, and has been our designated penalty taker since last season. It was the right call.

True, but his penalties always go to the keepers left; and if they’re not high enough, like today, they can be saved. Fabianski knew this.

 

[BlueHammer85]

What did you thing about our pen in the first half when it was still 0-0?
Don't tell me, you didn't see it ;)

Ha. Honestly I haven’t. Had a 1 year old desperately trying to put on the Gruffalo throughout the game.
Judging by comments on here, it clearly should have been a pen. What can I say ? Some decisions are awful. It’s always been that way and always will be, doesn’t make it right and we should always look at ways to improve decisions - VAR gives us a chance.

 

[Scottish Cityzen]

Thought Antonio for such a big build bloke was pathetic. Falls over so bloody easily. And than slams his fists into the turf like a fucking 2 year old. How he wasnt booke for his piss poor behaviour is a joke.

Perhaps I have been watching to much cycling why the little blokes just get up after losing their skin on the tarmac.

Dissent seems to be a thing of the past. There was one in particular after his good run, Antonio ran up to a player in an aggressive manner then did the same towards Alty, got away with a ridiculous amount on more than one occasion.

Don't like one bit that we're gonna be facing Steven Gerrad's Villa as our final game but it is meant to be this way, either he will have his redemption moment of sorts or we'll rub it in his face again. Quiet fitting that a decade from 93.20 moment we might be in a for a similar heart pounding game to win the league, it's great when you come through as winners but sucks the life out of you when you're living the moment. Hoping and praying for a easier final day.

Today's draw is a good result considering the first half and determination our team showed to comeback should be enough to carry us on the final day. After today's hiccups, everyone will be on top of their game against Villa. Cmon City

 

[dronefromsector7G]

Please piss off with the "slagging off a team and manager that have given us the best days of our lives EVER following City," bollocks. It is a post-match thread, not a post-season thread or a thread about Pep in general.

It amazes me how many people don’t get this. I imagine these posters shout down any criticism whilst at the game for the same reason

 

[Bald fraud]

Sky saying that now it goes down to the final day. Probably but possibly not

They know something we don’t?

 

[mat]

Huge point.

Could have stolen it despite alti fan.

Moyes set up well against us and it almost worked.

We'll be reet next Sunday.

 

[come-on-barney]

Tell you what. There is some absolute fucking prats on this forum. Match day thread and this thread. Top of the league. Win on Sunday at home and its ours. Players look absolutely fucked. Defence is fucked.

Well played Jack. Best game he's had. 1 to go.

had to smile at this
