West Ham United. 2019-20

Any positives to take away from the game?

Hahaha. Nobody broke their legs?

Fabianski joining Michail in the sick bay for the next 2 months.
Fingers crossed for that Roberto fella. He looks like a very trendy modern keeper with all those neck tattoos and short sleeves, so I'm sure its another step in our becoming the new Man City.

Standard innit? Starts off as "back for Everton", give it a couple of days and they're out till Xmas. As soon as they say it we all know they're going to be walking with a limp for the rest of their lives

Remember when Gabbidon had to have a special shoe?

Are we top of the injury table yet?

 

[hammerntongues]

I saved it just in case .....

Also worth keeping for those long cold winter nights ahead

How was Zaha not interfering with play? He was practically in the bloody 6 yard box, miles ahead of the ball, running for the far post. I can see how Ayew should get the benefit of the doubt but Zaha is still bugging me.

The highlight was probably Haller injuring himself whilst trying to decapitate someone with a flying overhead back-heel volley.

 

[Badgers]

Up the Hammers

Hoping for a 0-3 win away to Everton today. The Hammers up to 3rd and keeping Everton in their relegation place

All that optimism seems like a long time ago now

Newcastle's second goal! What were we doing? That French winger should've got them a couple too.
I'm not sure where we go from here. We're still a long way from relegation form but Pell doesn't have that many selection options and the 5 teams below us are gonna drag us into the shit if this carries on. Spurs-Everton today

 

[Thaw]

I expect we won't be troubling the Europa League spots now. Lets leave that to the big hitters like Sheffield Utd, eh?

 

[Thaw]

Mind you, we're still only 4 pts off 5th so maybe everyone is shit

I didn't even watch it after the second one went in (which was disallowed but whatever). First time that has happened ever but knew it was pointless. We looked completely unthreatening and slow and disinterested.

Don't know what is going on but we are pointless at the moment. We're making any team we play look like the best team in the world.

Burnley lost 3-0 to Sheff Utd last week. We never even looked like scoring.

 

[Thaw]

I suppose 13 points from 13 games is just about enough for the 40 points to stay up but we need a win from the next 5 to keep us in touch or it starts looking awkward.
Not too bothered though. Fuck it.

Been turning it off as soon as we go two down. Never ever done that before.

 

[Thaw]

According to some boffins we've had one of the easiest starts, and our next 5 games are the 2nd hardest possible. I suppose we might as well just enjoy the disaster slowly unfolding.

Everton and West Ham are set to compete with each other for David Moyes with both Marco Silva and Manuel Pellegrini under pressure according to the Daily Mirror.

Where the fuck did that come from?

David Martin - the new Phil Parkes.

 

[Sweet FA]

Fucking West Ham. Every time.

 

[Badgers]

Up the Hammers

 

[tommers]

Before they scored Arsenal were possibly the worst team I've seen us play this season.

We're now 3-1 down to them.

I'd say unbelievable but we do this shit all the time.

 

[Badgers]

How did that happen?

When I went to bed Arse had lost two full-backs, were 1-0 down, had no shots on target and were being booed off

 

[Thaw]

1 win in 11 in all competitions over 2.5 months. Not great.
How long is Pell gonna get to save this? I reckon he'll get the boot after Southampton beat us on Saturday. That would give the new fella almost 2 weeks to kick them into shape in time for Christmas.

 

[hammerntongues]

Phew.... that’s all .

 

[Thaw]

Antonio and Haller look a good front 2. But still, it was only Southampton.

 

[hammerntongues]

We did look good as you say with 2 up but the minute we reverted to single striker we invited the threat again . Still not convinced but we are a hugely different side with Antonio back to full fitness .

Fake carlton starting the #ripprincephilip hashtag (currently trending at #2) is the best thing we've done all year.

 

[tommers]

It was zouma.
