Re: England -v- Brazil (C4 from 1900)

I don't think Bowen will get a look in unfortunately. Problem for Bowen is not Bowen imo. He does everything right.... he makes the runs, tries to get into good positions, makes the space and tries to get behind the defenders... the issue here is time and time again you have people like Stones who ...

Absolute joke of a ref.
this is the same ref who was on VAR and who disallowed Cornet's goal vs Chelsea a few years back for the "brush" on the Chelsea GK's which left his arm broken and writhing in pain (not).

I would say offside, but even now they are trying to measure that down to the micron which is just stupid

Re: West Ham United v Aston Villa: match thread (17.03.24)

*Exhales Calm blue oceans Calm blue oceans *Inhales After seeing the replay of the Kudus disallowed goal, can I join you? I can find no explanation as to why the referee blew his whistle as Kudus shot. There was no foul on the GK and Kudus did not handball it. If the ref blew for the former, why di...

Not bringing on fresh legs. Basic

You could see we have been running in treacle since the 55th minute FFS - why can't Moyes?????

Re: West Ham United -v- SC Freiburg - 2nd leg match thread - 14.03.24

Didn't like sitting back the last 10 mins as we cannot let them get back in too this game too much.

Take it to them and put it to bed.

Antonio doing what he does best and so far it has worked. Need to get the 3rd before subbing him off

Re: West Ham Utd V Burnley: match thread - 10.03.24

Looking at the Antonio one . Two Burnley players are playing him on . VAR needs binning. On the SKy highlights on youtube, even though they did not even draw the dotted line coming down from Antonio armpit, he still looks on. I don't want to scream corruption, but to me it looks like they put the l...

Re: West Ham Utd V Burnley: match thread - 10.03.24

Well done West Ham. The gift that keeps on giving.

Absolute shambolic performance.

Any manager worth his salt with give them a rollocking at HT and bring on some subs.

No doubt Moyes will give them til 70 mins before doing anything, by which stage we will be 3 down.

Score one and they will crumble but you can clearly see they are trying to frustrate us.

Re: SC Freiburg -v- West Ham - EL16 match thread - 07.03.24

Kudus is holding back. Make the run with the ball man. It's the kind of chaos we need here. Yep. 100%. Hope to see more of Kudus and Paqueta, the latter needs to move a bit more inside to influence the game as he is being doubled up the moment he gets the ball. Bowen also needs to get things going ...

Re: Everton vs West Ham United Match Thread

Crap penalty in every way and the ref once again has let them get away with lots of niggly fouls to break up play. Not pretty but what do you expect against a Dyche side. We really need to step up a gear and be a bit more on the front foot and play the ball on the deck more as I think we can play th...
