West Ham wankspangles H Thu 28th Dec KO 815pm

[Perryashburtongroves]

Hardy surprising this result given the performances.

None of our attack firing like they were last season

How can you have a striker that has 3 goals all season and challenge for the title

There you have it. Obvious to all of us. Two chances tonight with headers which a proper striker scores and we rescue a point when playing badly.

[Reno Gooner]

This has been shit from start to finish. City will win the next ten or more games, dippers will finish second. We'll be a distant third.

Third??? Ok.....

[the playing mantis]

Ole'ing and oooohing in the first couple of minutes when Odegaard and Saka were faffing around on the wing and it's been downhill since then.

And then fucking off home while the game is still on. We have some absolute mongs in our fanbase.

They’ve destroyed the atmosphere this season, the ludicrous ballot, cutting the allocation of the ashburton army and the final nail in the coiffin handing the reigns to some bird from Royal Ascot……and it fucking shows.

Yeah you are right - just a load of tourists get tickets these days. Who is the Ascot bird though??

That big ol lezzer balding?!?

[Stuart L (2)]

3 million touches inside the opposition penalty area champions

At walking pace

[Wengerballs]

We made West Ham look like the best defensive Milan team.

Could she just place a wig down there?

F off odergaard why take 1 touch when 10 will do...prick.

Sell the *word censored* that will give us some funds.

I have said that for two years - I'm not excusing our attackers one jot, but if you ask any forward player they will tell you that they prefer fast early ball, but that norwegian c.unt takes FAR too many touches before releasing the ball and it allows defender to get into position

We'll do enough against the rubbish at the bottom of the table at home and away, probably beat Villa at home and the chavs but will keep dropping points away from home.

Yep and he sets the tone both as 'creative force' and skipper. Not of the level required. And everything goes via gim centrally and that's a huge issue why we are not firing. As you say not excusing strikers and wide men but he's is a big problem as undermining it all.

[Stuart L (2)]

I blame Xhaka for turning up and watching apparently

[Gunner Rob]

The whole Christmas schedule is a joke this season.

We lost the momentum from Saturday by not playing Boxing Day

[TeeCee]

Saka and Martinelli so bad, it's at that time when you need to be able to call on a decent striker..... There's not one at the club.

To much passing, we squandered so many opportunities because Saka/Ode or Jesus wanted to pass it yet again, fucking load of shit.

We tried near post corners for 91 minutes and it never worked so what do we do in the last few mins... Yup, continue with the same shit. Set pièce coach? Has he been off with COVID this week or something?

Don't even get me started with Xhakachenko, biggest turd this side of Rodders upstairs bog

Shades of Hleb all over again. Even in the turning round in circles on the edge of the box. It painful at times and then the loopy cross into the box with nobody there.

Tbf Rob this result has been coming for a while.

Yes we have been v good in some games. But been scraping by in many. Silly defensive mistakes cause oppo to score on their only attacks but our offensive players simply been poor most season so we are not creating, let alone scoring. Lots of aygkpts today apparnelty but 1 maybe 2 meaningful. Same all season.

Used to be keepers often had worldies vs us...not these days.

[Perryashburtongroves]

Martinelli needs a rest. Leave him on the bench for a few games. Start with Trossard and Havertz.
