Bloody windy at the LS, team
Bloody windy at the LS, team selection baffling!
Pellegrini has lost the plot,
Pellegrini has lost the plot, why play zaba instead of fredericks?
What are the odds
on Carroll coming off the bench and scoring the winner?????
Any
Links?
Mate the way there playing
I wouldn't want to be the one to heap misery on you.
Bloody hell
We seem to think they won't score so defence is not a priority and what happens.
UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!
Here we go again.
Embarrassing.
Enough said.
Good job
I can't find a link.
The last few games
for some reason our passing has been shit, our defence is nearly non existent and stack is no where. We are making teams that can't win into champions.
yes agree
is it the formation we are playing ? how about 4-4-2 just for a change can't be worse or can it ?
Haller won't be around for much longer
at this rate. Pellegrini's system is killing him. What's the point in spending all that money if you're not going to give him the support he needs????
The whole lot of 'em are clueless!!!!
Newcastle are just crowding
Newcastle are just crowding out the West Ham attacks and then causing huge problems on the counter attacks. Zabelata cannot match the pace of any of the Newcastle forwards and needs to be substituted. Fredricks will add pace and could be a game changer. Noble is extremely out of pace as well. Should get Masuaku on the left wing and give Anderson a more central role. This could then change the dimension of this rather ridiculously backward movement of the Hammers. Too slow to cause any problems is the biggest problem!!
Zabaleta still on the pitch????
Completely baffling.
FFS, a few weeks ago
we where touted as a top three team, we lose Fabianski and now we look like relegation fodder.
It all went tits up
when Pellegrini changed a winning team for the Oxford Cup game. We've been a shambles ever since.
Agreed..Now he has massive
Agreed..Now he has massive problem to deal with of his own making.I think he has lost the dressing room,nobody is giving 100%. It's a combination of bad team selection,poor tactics,questionable formation for games,baffling substitutions, they are all taking their toll and the players are losing heart.If that is not bad enough Pellegrini is resistant to change,it's the same shite each week.Westham were making Newcastle look good yesterday because they were not pressing and closing down,they didn't start doing so until the last 15mins,too late then damage is done.Poor old Zabaletta,he's becoming a liability now,just hasn't the pace ,but wtf did Pellegrini leave it till the 70th minute to bring on Fredericks when he should have been playing from the start.I can't see light at the end of the tunnel,just look at the run of games till the new year,current form I cannot see where the next point is coming from.Unless Pellegrini can get the players heads right and get them to build confidence in him,Westham will be staring relegation in the face.Fans say that they will never sack Pellegrini ,given a 3 yr contract on £8m a yr,but they will have no choice if the team is sitting in the relegation zone come Christmas.Sullivan will have far more to lose if the team get relegated than just paying up Pellegrini's contract
Pellegrini
has made us no better than we were under Bilic….with a damn sight more money spent on players!!!
Pellegrini
Taxi for Pellegrini
Same old westham
1 point from palace,Everton,Sheffield utd now Newcastle.bought haller & isolate him,he will be off soon
yes dave same old mate.very
yes dave same old mate.very worring,i had bruce taking toon down,could be us at this rate,yet another gift and lift from us today.
,not bloody good enough
the players need to look at themselves and Pelligrini needs to work out what the Fuxx he is trying to achieve because at the moment it looks like he is lost.
Disgusting display.
Pellegrini is OK when he's managing a team of superstars. He's CLUELESS when it comes to starting from scratch.
Pathetic
Roberto needs to go, he is the worst keeper we've had since McKnight! Snods at least put some effort in, we cannot defend set pieces (FGS bring Rio in to coach them) Ajeti????????? If Carlsberg did P*ss you off weekends this has to be it!
Ref was very poor though that free which led to Clarks goal was laughable, Snods gets an arm in the throat and the offender does not get booked! Rice and Noble were well off today and Magpies spent most of the first 30 mins rolling around! Does not take away that we were abysmal for 73 mins!
Drat and Double Drat
Drat and Double Drat
Watched the Everton /
Watched the Everton / Tottenham game and besides the shocking tackle and injury to Everton's Gomez, what transpired with the VAR was so damn inconsistent, it is unbelievable. Deli Ali handled the ball in the box like Rice did against Crystal Palace. But no penalty was given. No one including the Commentators could understand it. There should have been a second red card for the Spurs defender for a deliberate tackle with no other defender in sight, but it was overlooked by Referee Martin Atkinson after the VAR review. When are we going to see any consistency even in spite of the VAR playback??
The answer to your question is NEVER!
VAR is pointless. It still relies on a panel of equally blind officials making stupid decisions. I’d rather instant mistakes than ten minute ones.
