Shock
Not sure what to make of his selection, hope he has got it right. COYI
Talk about the bare bones,
Talk about the bare bones, neither Arnie, Zaba nor the General even in the squad! Midfield looks very exposed as well
Due to injuries
I was hoping that ogbonna & diangana would start imo it's not a bad selection under the circumstances!!COYI
Lots of changes, yes. But
Lots of changes, yes. But this doesn't look like a weakened side
Can't afford
To miss chances like that. COYI
Should be 1-0 up!
How did Perez not even get it on target??
I see Saints are double
I see Saints are double-teaming Diangana. That's good, it means, one, they're afraid of him and two , someone else is always free when he gets the ball.
Ant
Looks vulnerable at the back, it's never been good for him. So who's coming on for Lucas?
We are well on top and should
We are well on top and should be in front. Andy Carroll to score the winner.
Winnable
We can win this but Perez is not good enough. Time for Carroll for the crosses from Creswell.
Yes Carroll needs a full 45
Yes Carroll needs a full 45 minutes
Great
Goal
2-1
That's why we love Antonio, great run, great cross
To concede a goal like that
to a hand ball and then for a fantastic goal by Anderson, fuxxing brilliant and now Anderson gets his second. What a turnaround.
Anderson
Anderson Anderson, two great goals
If we can hold on
5 wins from the last 6 games..serious form!COYI
Too soon
For that kind of talk, game is very open
But at least we are putting the ball
in the back of the net. We are shaping into a formidable team and when and if we ever have a full squad it could be exciting times ahead.
Where the hell
did four minutes come from???
brilliant
great result and good entertaining football dare one say the west ham way
Superb win
Happy days ⚒⚒
Back on track
Now we have to keep it going in our next couple of games, great games by Anderson, Rice who just gets better and better and the ever fabulous Fabianski who for me is player of the season so far, some of his saves have been brilliant and when you look at the conceded goals most have not been his fault. I do hope we get to see Silva before long as he seems like an exciting player.
Agree Alby
I think we will see Silva v Brum at least for 45 to see what he can do.
I hope so
we are doing well but the more that are fit and can be used the merrier. A cup run now would be great.
How much is Felipe worth now?
The vultures will be queuing up...enjoy it while it lasts people!!
Add that to the list
Of good performances so far this year. The guys without so many first team players, don't think we will see our best 11 this season but the football has been a joy to watch, well done the boss.
Double what we paid 65
and a couple more are building up their price too, young Rice who rumours say has agreed a contract ( hope its true), Diangana for me is another that is improving every time he plays and if the report that Pelligrini has had a heart to heart with Oxford is true a few good youngens coming up.
For me Diangana is far to
For me Diangana is far to light weight ,gets bossed around to easy
Said that about Lanzini
Look what happened there...but give the boy a chance Burkie he's still growing....him and antonio did look vulnerable but it was a stop gap fix...more senior players around the Lad will help his development.
West Ham has moved up to 3rd
West Ham has moved up to 3rd place in the Table of the "Last 5 Matches". Only Liverpool and Spuds have a better record with a maximum of 5 wins. Incredible to see an injury hit team like West Ham performing so well, considering the issues facing them. No one is going to give up Anderson, as Pellegrini has that respectability to attract even more big name signings. We will see what he can get out of Nasri as well as Reece Oxford as clubs like Arsenal and Everton are coming round sniffing for his services. West Ham is finally on track to be a top six team, with Arnatouvic set to return in the New Year. The only danger is that, if Pochettino turns down a Man Utd move, then they could try and target Pelligrini.
The only sour note for me was
The only sour note for me was sky tv you could almost feel them wishing Saints to win and as for that dick head Tizzer on the panel goin on and on about the peno they shouda got ,fuck sake when are sky goin to get some unbiasedness into their programs
Given the situation with 10
Given the situation with 10 first team players out injured this was a remarkable result or just remarkable period. Scores out of 10... no one gets less than 9 for me, brilliant away performance and great bounce back after Watford. 10 out 10 to El Pel, any past manager would have been struggling.
Spot on Dartford
After going 1 nil down I thought if we can get a draw that would be still a great result,but to win like that with our injuries was fantastic imo...I was a doubter at the start of el pels reign but glad to now eat humble pie.pelegrini is the man to take us forward
and it just gets better 65
and it just gets better 65 with the news of Rice! I dont particularly want to highlight an individual from last nights performance but as a mate of mine said "Rice was imperious" and there were many Mooresque moments. Hes the type of player you hate to play against so delighted he has committed to West Ham
Absolutely!
It's great news,hopefully our captain for many years to come
