Re: West Ham Utd v Bayer Leverkusen: match thread (2nd leg)
With Liverpool almost certainly out, every chance we are going to be knocked out by the team that will win it. An insufficient 1-0 win if it proves to be the only defeat Leverkusen suffer this season would still be something.

Re: Midweek Games April 9-11
Fabulous goal…a Palace side toying with the Liverpool defence. Who’d have expected that?!

I'd have yanked those two petulant twats off right away were I Poch... disgraceful... Doesn’t enhance the managers reputation one bit either.

Re: Postecoglou: are the cracks beginning to show? [non WHU]
Along with Liverpool probably play the most exciting style in the division. Spurs are going to finish in the top 6 which is about where they should be and their fans have had more fun watching them play in years. Playing a cavalier brand of football is what they’ve demanded - with that comes a high ...

Re: VAR 2023/24
Wrong decision for that MU pen at Bournemouth for sure. Mind you, even the PL hasn’t seen a pen overturned, just after it’s been converted…. It’s happened tonight in Germany… https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-13305321/Borussia-Dortmund-penalty-overturned-VAR-absurd-circumstances-vid...

Re: Bayer Leverkusen v West Ham Utd Europa QF 1st leg match thread
Surprise recall for Nathan? We need he pace, I feel, compared to Ogbonna and Cresswell. 3-4-3: Fabianski; Mavrop, Zouma, Aguerd; Johnson, Soucek, JWP, Emerson; Kudus, Antonio, Paqueta. Bowen hopefully fit enough to replace Mic on 70, along with Coufal for Johnson. Bowen is confirmed as out sadly.

Re: Tuesday tester (9/4/24)
Think this right.
I’m surprised there aren’t more unique combinations. There are countless options that would be eg yellow/grey, claret/black, orange/green etc

Imagine having to watch that.
Some of those Sheff Utd tackles though!? Should really be down to 10 men if not 9.

Re: Postecoglou: are the cracks beginning to show? [non WHU]
I mentioned elsewhere a few days ago on a different thread. An interview he gave this week confirmed that his team has the same attacking approach regardless of the score line. It’s a trademark of his style at every club he’s been at. That way he says, the players have a clarity not clouded by havin...

Re: Stopping the cheating
It’s true there have always been players with a reputation of cheating. The difference now is VAR should be being used to expose and punish them. Even if officials somehow still manage to cock it up during the game
I agree btw re the first pen being incorrect too.

Re: Stopping the cheating
Excellent article and long overdue. Conversely you have muppets like Dermot Gallagher with his own bizarre opinion on the second penalty. https://www.shieldsgazette.com/sport/football/newcastle-united/no-doubt-ex-ref-delivers-strong-verdict-on-controversial-newcastle-united-v-west-ham-incidents-4575...

Who else doesnt think Paqueta will leave? I don't thibk he will. In fact, I would lay money on it, because I think he love West Ham He won’t be going anywhere until the betting charge is resolved one way or another. No news when that will be and then of course he could face a long ban. Cricketers g...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
There was a very interesting interview with Postecoglu in yesterday’s Standard. He was asked how come Spurs so often come back from a goal down to secure points. His explanation was that it was a characteristic of every team he had previously managed and based on the fact that he coaches his team to...

Re: Newcastle Utd v West Ham Utd - Match Thread
Bizarrely Dermot Gallagher reckoned both pens were valid. Mark Halsey and Keith Hackett agree the 2nd wasn’t.
