After West Ham's dreadful showing on Friday night, it caused the sports world to erupt with criticism from Hammers fans to pundits to players and even generic football fans.

Fans gathered on radio stations and talk shows to discuss the abysmal performance that we had just seen, and a wide ranging amount of criticism was made. Fans blaming the manager, pundits blaming the plays, but most admirably were Rob Green and Jamie Redknapp, who not only gave spot-on analysis, but criticised the owners and exclaimed how there are so many issues on the pitch and even more off the pitch.

The Hammers kicked off the campaign with an absolute thunderbolt, Malick Diouf laid of Lucas Paqueta who fired the ball from miles out, beating Robert Sanchez and most likely securing our goal of the season.

Goal of the season? Or only goal of the year.

From that point onwards, bar a goal that temporarily put the Hammers up 2-1 from the German which was deemed as offside, one became two and two would eventually mature into five.
