2009/10 Match Notes & Ratings

0-3 v Manchester United (a) 23rd February 2010
by Staff Writer

(Replaced Behrami, 63 mins) Covered a lot of ground to little effect.

3-0 v Hull City (h) 21st February 2010
by Daniel Prescott

(Replaced Diamanti, 85 mins) Not enough time to cause any problems for the Hull defence. But always a welcome face at the Boleyn.

3-0 v Hull City (h) 21st February 2010
by East Stand Martin

(Replaced Diamanti, 85 mins) The game was effectively over by the time he arrived.

1-2 v Burnley (a) 6th February 2010
by Rob Chapman

One shot that cannoned into a defender and a stupid foul that lead to the second goal were his most notable “contributions”. Looks some way short of his highly promising early form.

0-0 v Blackburn Rovers (h) 30th January 2010
by Gordon Thrower

Looked ok sporadically but delayed shots and passes a couple of times too much for my liking.

1-1 v Chelsea (h) 20th December 2009
by Gordon Thrower

Another who had his best game in a while. Good run into the box for the penalty and got forward to support Franco well.

0-4 v Manchester United (h) 5th December 2009
by Gordon Thrower

A wretched afternoon. Barely picked out a pass and seemed ill at ease with whatever it was h was supposed to be doing.

5-3 v Burnley (h) 28th November 2009
by Gordon Thrower

Quick thinking and composure for the goal but guilty of failing to help out Spector in the second half.

2-1 v Aston Villa (h) 4th November 2009
by Gordon Thrower

Another who is returning to form. Needs to have a look at his footwear though – I lost count of the number of times he slipped over during the match.

2-2 v Sunderland (a) 31st October 2009
by Gordon Thrower

Excellent in the first half, he got caught in possession far too much in the second for my liking.

2-2 v Arsenal (h) 25th October 2009
by Gordon Thrower

A quietish one – a few decent passes and a bit unlucky with an early shot that was adjudged to have been offside.

0-0 v Blackburn Rovers (a) 29th August 2009
by East Stand Martin

Lots of effort (as always) but to little avail.

3-1 v Millwall (h) 25th August 2009
by East Stand Martin

Just for turning up.

1-2 v Tottenham Hotspur (h) 23rd August 2009
by East Stand Martin

A quiet one.

2-0 v Wolverhampton Wanderers (a) 15th August 2009
by Andy Stansfield

A quiet game – and really ought to have scored.

2-0 v Beijing Guoan (n) 31st July 2009
by Staff Writer

A solid 70 minutes of competitive football.

 

2008/09 Match Notes & Ratings

2-1 v Middlesbrough (h) 24th May 2009
by Gordon Thrower

Young Hammer of the Year, he produced another mature run out that makes him look like he’s been there for years.

0-3 v Liverpool (h) 9th May 2009
by Gordon Thrower

(Replaced Stanislas, 59 mins) Looked decent enough in the half-hour he was on and, assuming he’s not injured himself in the meantime, I’d start him up at Goodison.

1-0 v Stoke City (a) 2nd May 2009
by Gordon Thrower

(Replaced Boa Morte, 82 mins) Only on a few minutes so not much time to influence proceedings.

1-0 v Manchester City (h) 21st February 2009
by Gordon Thrower

Another decent run out. The finish for the goal was a lot more difficult than it looked too.

1-2 v Bolton Wanderers (a) 21st February 2009
by John Simkin

Seemed to lose his confidence after giving away the free-kick that led to the first-goal.

1-1 v Middlesbrough (h) 14th February 2009
by John Simkin

Lively as always but it was a terrible miss in the 38th minute.

1-1 v Middlesbrough (h) 14th February 2009
by East Stand Martin

Probably should have scored in the first half and sometimes guilty of over-elaboration.

0-1 v Manchester United (h) 8th February 2009
by John Simkin

Doubled-up with Illunga against Giggs and still found time to help the attack.

0-1 v Manchester United (h) 8th February 2009
by Gordon Thrower

Didn’t look out of place in any way against such so-called illustrious opposition.

0-0 v Arsenal (a) 31st January 2009
by East Stand Martin

Stuck to the task well though circumstances dictated that he didn’t impose his authority on the game as much as of late.

0-0 v Arsenal (a) 31st January 2009
by John Simkin

Except for a couple of poor passes in advanced positions, he had another highly promising game.

2-0 v Hull City (h) 28th January 2009
by John Simkin

A player I love watching. His upright stance reminds me of Brooking. Has the potential to be as good as Carrick. Let us hope we keep this one.

2-0 v Hartlepool United (a) 24th January 2009
by John Simkin

A few nice touches but generally a fairly quiet afternoon.

3-1 v Fulham (h) 18th January 2009
by John Simkin

My man of the match. His promotion to the first-team has been a tremendous difference to the side's performance. Has the ability to go to the very top. West Ham's ambition will be tested by the offers that will come from the top clubs for this highly promising player.

2-2 v Newcastle United (a) 10th January 2009
by Gordon Thrower

Another fine one from the youngster. Young Hammer of The Year anyone?

3-0 v Barnsley (h) 3rd January 2009
by Gordon Thrower

Continues to mature – better finishing might have seen him add to the tally as well.

2-1 v Stoke City (h) 28th December 2008
by East Stand Martin

Got through a lot of running before being sacrificed as we searched for the winner.

0-0 v Portsmouth (h) 15th November 2008
by East Stand Martin

Another good run out for the lad who continues to impress. In the unlikely event that we ever get a fully injury-free squad it’ll be interesting to see where he lies in the pecking order.

1-3 v Everton (h) 8th November 2008
by East Stand Martin

(replaced Upson, 15) A fine run-out from the bench. Rarely wasted the ball and the finish for his goal was superb.

A decent showing from the youngster who constantly sought the ball. Should have scored though.

2-3 v MLS AllStars (n) 25th July 2008
by Graeme Howlett

(replaced Mullins, 65) On the periphery.

0-2 v Arsenal (a) 1st January 2008

(replaced Ljungberg, 37) Promising start. Though he was a little profligate with the ball from time to time he didn’t hide at all.
