Weathered Hammers Suffer Defeat To Aston Villa

Submitted by Louis Nixon on Sun, 14/12/2025 - 17:09

When it rains for relegation clubs, it pours. A cruel defeat against Aston Villa now places West Ham miles behind the remainder of the field, especially after Nottingham Forest’s 3-0 victory against the Spuds.

A performance of individual quality rather than a unit is what happened this afternoon, both teams playing in a similar style, but unsurprisingly, Aston Villa looked glued in comparison to our paper mache. A tactic that looked spot on from Nuno, but individuals are letting the Hammers down once again, which caused spirals and led to goals being conceded.
