Looks good.
A line up
I'm sure will please many, especially those calling for Souceks head. Now to see if it works. Not sure what Ings has to do to get a start although I've a feeling he will come on in the last 5 minutes.
Ings can't start in that set up
He has the nouse to sniff out a goal but he does not have the legs to play up top on his own if it was in a two then maybe.
Well i know two on here
Who will not object to Mav starting can you guess who children
Something to do with high
Something to do with high heels bike ?
Oh i see
Just because i notice a player and marvel at his ABILITY i get called out mmmm be careful boys i may bite back!
Just got in the ground
Oh i like the line up and i have a good feeling about today as long as we can keep an eye on Palmer i think we win 2-1
And Palmer ,keep it tight
And Palmer ,keep it tight tight as a dingos jock strap.
I'm saying nuffink
About that f***ing goalkeeper
Bowen look so ineffective up
Bowen look so ineffective up there
Yeah Soucek
Had to be done.
I left half time,you can take
I left half time,you can take me on if you want.....Its no different to Moyes......Everyone carried on about him......And everyone carried on about Allardyce.....And overall i didnt want either to leave......Not sure what people want at this club,but what i will say it is cetainly full of short sightedness,as those two kept us a float,and one of them won us a cup......After all my years of Season Ticketness,i think this may be my last one,its a great day out socially but the football is dire,rather stay in the pub.
Feel for you Essex!
I would have joined you at half time.
However, just because The Paellamoyes is also crap doesnt mean we shouldnt have moved on from Moyes. The problem was all about timing and who was available. We were in competition with Liverpool, Man U (yes, they were searching) Chavski and yes even Bayern Munchen all looking for a top coach. The recruitment is proving to be a disaster and the great Tim Zee German is in the words of Brians Mum... He's not the messiah!
This is the problem Essex.
This is the problem Essex. Yes we wanted a change. Someone with new ideas etc. But we got like for like. The Spanish Moyes.

Busy wiping the Egg off my face
What can you say about that performance well not a lot really but all the years i have been going as a little girl with my Dad and now a grown woman with my Dad i have to say that never ever have i seen a London Derby at home where we are so meek and sit back.
Jlo has two ways to play they/he says one for away games and one for home games well truly i do not see it and what happened today could and probably should of last week at Fulham.
Sack
At what point do the board realise it's another mistake and get rid? All the talk and hype well proof is on the field. Another foreign flop manager. Grand ideas but forgets the basics.
And bring in who?
Eddie Howe? Yeah, he's really setting the world on fire with all that money spent
Why would I want Howe? Odd.
Why would I want Howe? Odd.
A name
That's been bandied around on the org for ages. So who're you putting forward? Potter maybe?
I'd not have appointed lop in
I'd not have appointed lop in the first place. Moyes was ok but went stale and lacked any attacking ideas. I'd have to see who's available and interested before if suggest a replacement. But that's not my job or decision? All I can say now is this guy talks a good game but 0.3 at home to Chelsea is crap
This is correct VAR, no one
This is correct VAR, no one wanted him, people have very short memories, there were protests against his appointment here and in Spain, he's been found out, The Paellamoyes, similar football but with out any structure, tactic, leadership and.........success
I sometime wonder if our
I sometime wonder if our fanbase are closet Chelski fans with the demand for instant success. I'm surprised no-one's moaning about us not winning a trophy so far this season!!!!
Sure it hasn't been pretty so far and the lack of passion is a bit of a concern but we're West Ham. Starting the season off like we've a rocket up our arses never happens, and this is more like it. Things almost always take time to gel. 5 league games in and already calling for the gaffer's head?? Get a grip man
LOL...Demand for instant success
Waited 40 effing years for a trophy :o)
Well said Dartford,i think
Well said Dartford,i think there is room for a moan up hey.
It was aimed around the point
It was aimed around the point that being just 5 games into the season we shouldn't be getting beaten by lesser teams such as Chelsea, Man City and Aston Villa as we've replaced David Moyes and bought some new players yet are not winning. How can this be?
Is it just me
Who thought we played on the front foot? Thought that was what you all wanted? Thought Chelsea's keeper had a blinder, unlike our waste of space.
Seems most were happy with the line up although maybe you wanted Mavro dropped. Having seen how poor Rodriguez was, you lot sure about Todibo?
And you'd NEVER see Moyes make a 35th minute substitution.
same old same old
no fret up front no pacey centre forward look at the chelsea goals scored with pace and accuracy, ant used to be like that 2 season's ago but to slow now rather like our defence. team confidence is also low now, and with no firm tackler in midfield apart from Souček i don't think we can do with out him and he can score goals which is definitely something we need .ok now lets beat liverpool in the cup
Not getting Duran over the
Not getting Duran over the line is hurting us badly. What winds me up is Lop plays the same system as Moyes.
Also. Has Lop been told not to start Todibo? Would not putthat past Sullivan.
Sorry Enfield i disagree.
Sorry Enfield i disagree. With Moyes there was always a shape and a structure particularly when playing without the ball.
As I recall
We hardly ever HAD the ball
Yeah ,all fall back to our
Yeah ,all fall back to our own penalty area .
new drama on Apple TV
Its based Soucek, Alveraz and Roderigues ..........
Its called Slow Horses :o)
Well I had the arse most of
Well I had the arse most of the week. As Mrs Boogers would not stop going on about going out on Saturday shopping. So I could spend some Birthday money. Theres nothing I want FFS!! All I wanted was to watch us against the scum at midday.
So I was out with no phone signal. Didn't know anything until I got home and put the TV on. I suppose I dodged a bullet. As I would have been in a foul mood for the rest of the day, had I witnessed that. No goals at home was the first reaction. We have an uncoached defence, nothing on the training ground obviously?
My spidey senses are tingling that perhaps El Loppo is not liking his pie n mash in the East End and is perhaps a rebelos without a clue. Or just plain El Twatos!!
Poor West Ham display
Poor West Ham display especially in the first 15 minutes. My take is to play Kudus as centre forward and move Bowen to the right wing where he seems to be much more effective. Summerville was a bright spark and should have been awarded the penalty. VAR's slow motion was designed to be deceptive, especially when it was clear that he had a great scoring chance. Taking Summerville off was really upsetting as the energy seems to have drained from the left wing. Poor substitutions and Mavropanos was the one that should not have started. Too slow and lethargic, and unless Wan-Bissaka plays a more defensive role or we move back to a 3 centre back system, teams will continue to exploit that weakness!!
Senseless swapping kudos for
Senseless swapping kudos for bowen. Just end up making kudos an ineffective central striker instead
Nothing senseless about it.
Nothing senseless about it. His talents are taking him to the periphery of the sidelines where he has no chances of attempting to score. Hence his goalless run in the past few games. He at least carries the ball effectively from defence into attack. Imagine if he did it throughout the centre of the pitch, where the goal would be in his sight!!

Billy Horschel just won The BMW. Can we class that as another trophy won?
I sorry you guys but I'm with
I sorry you guys but I'm with Moore 2 ,Rome wasn't built in a day ,but I do think it was a mistake to replace virtually the whole team in one go ,imo you've got to rebuild a team slowly and with great patience .all this did was build our hopes up and expect the inevitable top 4 or 5 Finnish, it's guna take time for these guys to gell ,we were always guna loose tonight it was just a question by how much .
