Drops Ants

But STILL Mubama warms the bench

Ponderous

Its the Everton game all over again.....So slow all over the pitch its just so so predictable and the opposition can't believe how easy its been.

This is our best attacking

This is our best attacking side ,if they can't beat this lot say goodnight Ireen.

Starting to string a few

Starting to string a few passes together. Now less showboating from Paquetta and let’s find the back of the net.

This

Is soooo depressing to watch

I agree D H ,there is

I agree D H ,there is something drastically wrong somewhere ,this is a good side ,on paper anyway.

Good goal.

Now hopefully Ings can sit back down. We must keep the pressure on them and not sit back, we are useless at that.

Don't think he's that

Don't think he's that bothered bikey,he'll be off come the new season ,

Mubama showed why

Moyes does not pick him he showed nothing:-)

Give him time

Not fair bike, he was on for five minutes. Needs a half hour then let’s judge him

Jozi....thought you would of realised

It was very much a tongue in cheek comment

This was the team i've been

This was the team i've been waiting to see. I think the problem is the predictable formation. Personally I would switc to a 4-1-4-1. Alvarez holding.

Frustrating but good result

I think we looked slow, off the pace, timing of passes frustrating but I think we will get better and will be motivated by this for the Forest game. Bowen without a real front man was difficult. Olymipiacos are no mugs, got some decent players, I like the keeper, worth a punt in the window.

Emerson impresses me, think he is getting better by the game.

Paqueta is winning me over

Paqueta is winning me over more each game. Somebody must have really had a word with him about his amateur dramatics. As he has seriously cut them out in recent games. I look at him and think, thank Christ we have him at our club.

Emerson is a proper West Ham player and a good shout for HOTY at this early stage...

Took his goal well

But I needed the replay to appreciate it. I thought he was miles offside :D
He'll be gone in summer, if not January. His vision and speed of thought is streets ahead of any of the other players in that team. He'll do well at a team Shitty

depressing

game to watch but we ground out a win, which means we only need 2 points from 2 games to go thro, a much more attacking formation slow agree with what others have said but we can still improve on that and practice more accurate passing . thought their left back was very good

I was there....

and easy to see why so many are frustrated by tactics but to be fair and IMHO Olympiacos parked the bus most of the game, they went down like 9 pins at the merest contact and only stayed on their feet once a goal down. The ref was either naive or inept. We did play better first half I thought. This was a tough match up and for one am relieved and equally happy at the outcome and makes my 800 mile round trip worth it!
