A real sense of pride coming out the ground last night, I can't remember the last time we bullied a team like that in the first half, a real intensity that if applied against a weaker team would see us win more matches. Why not be more aggressive? Loved it and clearly rattled them / had them on the ...

Looking forward to this one. Absolutely zero expectation of progressing. Just sit back and watch West Ham in a European knockout game. I feel a modern day version of Villa park against Forest. The first leg was Tony Gale's red card :) Found that on YouTube, very soft red with covering players. What...

Let's get that stadium rocking tonight, make it as loud as possible.

Me too - BML !

Scored the best penalty I’ve ever seen at home vs Man United. Put his laces through it and was past Schmeichal before he even had chance to react.

I'd play Kudus through the middle with Antonio out wide to bully the full back. Kudus is the cleanest striker of the ball I've see from a West Ham player in a very long time, we have to utilize that asset. Just outscore them !

I’ve just witness Harlequins beat Bordeaux in France, which is a major upset, I’m taking this as a positive omen for Thursday. Believe

Inter should be bottom right not top right

Watching the game last night, I knew we'd give up possession to play how we did, and to be honest, I was very impressed with how disciplined we actually were. We were always going to be up against it, but I have to say that I thought everyone (bar Pacqueta) played well, especially Fabianski, and the...

The question will be, do their players think they’ve won it already?

One thing guaranteed for Thursday night and that will be me watching the game with the mute button on as I’m sure the words “Xabi Alonso” will be mentioned every 30 seconds and how fitting it will be for him to meet Liverpool in the final.

I think concussion checks should be enforced, it would eliminate 99% of people doing this, as, let’s face it, it’s not the same as a rugby tackle where you you may have head on head, or shoulder to head (ahem Farrell) contact. Mandatory check with a replacement coming on. I also think in game retros...

The game needs AI to make the decisions. You’d get instant, unbiased results for VAR. it’s not a question of if, but when.

The title of this thread is coincidentally the same as the words printed above the gates at Chelsea’s academy. True story that.

Kevin Phillips would be more match fit.

I was there...my first ever game too!

I’m forever haunted by Scott Oakes

I want him to be more "aggressive" on the pitch, he comes across as too nice.

I can’t get enough of our (European) campaign, keep watching the highlights from all the games. Love it.
