Yesterday's result was expected but still disappointing. Almost no fans would've gone into the London Stadium or turned on the TV and sat there expecting West Ham to win, but what I would've loved to have seen, would've been a bit of personality, a bit of passion even when losing.

In the first few minutes, we had an opening chance that Bowen played across the box, but Paqueta missed.

The first goal was conceded by poor defending, but we followed that up with some enthusiasm, Kudus hit the post nearly equalising, but from there, it all went wrong.

A 1-0 win against Southampton perhaps may not have been the easiest to watch, but three points are what was achieved at the end of the day.

However, this came with a cost. Two first-half substitutions saw Max Kilman exit the pitch clutching his shoulder, as well as Fabianski being carried off the pitch in a stretcher. While in the second half, Carlos Soler came off with a suspected knee injury.

The extent of the injuries are currently unknown, but Fabianski is forced out of the Liverpool game with the FA concussion rule coming into place.
