Goalkeepers
Forums:
I was just wondering your thoughts on this scenario. Should we get to the final of the FA Cup (please God), would Bilic keep with Randolph or play Adrian? Personally I think it would be shame if Randolph was dropped as he has proven to be a decent keeper who has played his part.
Your 3 to go down?
Forums:
As we enter the home stretch, it's probably fair to say that in this topsy turvy unheralded season nothing should be taken for granted. Leicester's unbelievable run at the end of last season, saving themselves from what seemed certain doom gives the bottom teams something to cling to and emulate.
Now with WH needing to overhaul 11 points to win the league, there's an 8 point gap between the 16th and 17th league positions. With 1 pt separating 17th-19th it looks like 2 from those 3 to join a doomed Aston Villa who find themselves 9pts from safety and playing like a League 1 side.
So who's your 2 to join AV? Sunderland managed by the never been relegated SA, Norwich in a wretched run of form, or Newcastle managed by the Wally with a brolly? Or do you see 1 or 2 of those managing to drag someone else into the mix?
Me I'm hoping for Sunderland, Newcastle, Villa, but I see Norwich struggling to drag themselves out of the drop zone which will probably save one of the North East's finest's blushes.Did Benteke Dive?
Forums:
Pardew was incensed with the decision to give a penalty to Benteke in the CP/Pooh gave the other day, and despite his rambling interview post match where he didn't cover himself in glory was honest enough that his substitutions had zero effect on the game.
Despite his protestations about the timing of the penalty, doesn't matter if it's 1st or 91st, I personally thought Benteke dived. If the player had missed him, I reckon he still would have hit the deck looking for it, but despite the minimal contact (I know, the payer is entitled to go down from the contact), to me it really showed poor sportsmanship yet again. Must be a Scouse thing, cheating, after Besic' s dive in the WH match. So I guess after that I have 2 questions
1, Did he dive?
2, Is minimal contact sufficient to award a pen?That Was The Week That Was
Three games, nine points, the burying of a hoodoo and a plethora of players returning from injuries, that was the remarkable week that was for West Ham United! For Hammers fans used to a diet of crash and burn during the latter part of the season, this one is uniquely different. The early season involvement in the Europa Cup was a bit of a poisoned chalice for Slaven Billic and his team, but with players now returning from injury with abundance there are those who are beginning to seriously believe this Hammers side can achieve virtually anything, in fact the bookies have been taking unprecedented amounts of bets on West Ham WINNING the Barclays Premier League! There is a slight caveat, namely most of the bets are each way, with the understanding that nothing short of a miracle will prevent Leicester City from winning, however, they do have to play a rejuvenated West Ham side again. The stunning comeback against Bogey team Everton will have empowered the players, but Slaven Billic will be quick to bring them back to reality, because if he doesn't there could be the risk of complacency, and Premier League opposition take no prisoners, however the feel good factor surrounding the club is infectious and success has a habit of breeding success, so why not dream, it's been a god awful long time since West Ham fans have been able to hold their heads up high going in to work with their 'big club' supporting colleagues and long may it continue.
West Ham 1 - 0 Sunderland
West Ham 1 - 0 Tottenham
Everton 2 - 3 West Ham
and the Sakman is back!

Not sure if I'm seeing this through C&B tinted specs, but I seem to have a different take from every pundit and report I'm reading on it.
'Long ball punted up field, headed down back of the net', seems to be the view on it but for me it was a beautifully executed move.
Now Cresswell's cross field ball was inch perfect and the pass you look for if you have a big target man. He looked up, and put it on his head. Feck, if that had been Beckham a few years back, the commentators would all be blowing their wads and patting each other on the back as if the messiah had parted the red sea. But it's West Ham and Cresswell's not an England international for some unknown reason, so it's a hopeful punt up field right off page 1 of BFS's football tactics. (That's a 1 pg book btw)The knockdown from Carroll is outstanding, beating 2 defender's to the ball, a lovely flick from Sakho, that again, if Messi had done, you'd think they'd been a stag party in the commentary box judging by the wads of kleenex. Payet is right on hand as all top quality players are and slots it beyond the keeper.
I sat and watched the goal about 50 times last night (kept rewinding it) and fail to see how it's a route 1, hopeful punt. Looks wonderfully crafted to me.
Anyone else?
