embarrassing or what

and do the same thing again on 2 days rest, but professional footballers are too tired to play 3 hours in two weeks. That excuse makes my blood boil. These players are young and fit and have absolutely no excuse.

Sam has brought us as far as he can although if he wasnt so stubborn with his obsession of nolan/carroll and his lack of belief in trying to blood some youth he may have brought us further. The old saying a leopard doesnt change his spots has been his downfall . The team were playing imaginitive free flowing football until his 2 best buddies returned from injury and then it was back to the same old dross...in fairness carroll gave his all but it was more direct with players out of position...Nolan contributes nothing no matter what people say....Hand the armband over to song or collins and lets get the team playing in there preferred positions..dump nolan/cole and maybe demel/obrien...get some good young players like cresswell from the championship and start giving lee/henry/oxford some game time in the run in...What a chance they had yesterday when we were 3-0 down to try youth yet he stuck cole and o brien on....I rest my case...Sam is a dinasour and we deserve better...My mates say we should be happywhere we are cos we are west ham...that make my blood boil....why should we settle for mid table mediocrity when our best eleven played in the right positions can compete with the best ? Our manager is holding us back and I am sick of it...Push the boat out and try for a young ambitious manager...frank de boer anyone ? I hope our owners have the balls to make the right decision this summer.

If that was the case then he should have bought in some younger players. But yes i agree it is a pathetic excuse. This is all they have to do, keep themselves fit, they have the best money can buy when it comes to advice regarding diet ect. they also earn in a week what most of us earn in a year, it should not be that heard to get it right.

2nd post

Very true H65 but after all BS is the MOST sophisticated manager in the Premier League has he says lol and then Pulis goes and tears him a new asshole

!

This manager, does not manage craft, guile, technical players very well at all.
Have a look at our squad now he's outed the likes of Zarate, Morrison, RVT (to lesser extent), leaving us hamstrung with a core of midfielders who cannot get in behind defences, cannot beat a man with pace, not one of them has a trick to take the oppo on a one to one.
Therefore if we are presented with a team who presses us, or even half press' we have no option but to go over the top, by-passing our no. 8 , or 10.
Kouyate, has to anchor midfield from now to season end, only one from Noble, Nolan and Song in the starting eleven. Have we even seen Jarvis play in a right hand sided berth for an entire game, where he can go past his man and whip a ball in without having to check back, as he cannot play off of his left foot?

I remember that one too mate!

Hope you & family are all well antkb,especially our favourite hammerette-tilly!
