Re: Liverpool v West Ham United: Match Thread

Then can't you understand Sam's decision not to play Noble then? Song (our best midfielder) Nolan (our captain) Putting indifferent form comparisons aside...... I could understand picking Nolan if it's for his goal threat For any other CM attribute, I can't understand picking Nolan over Noble (I as...

Re: West Ham Utd v Everton: match thread (FA Cup 3R Replay)

One thing I also felt strange last night was kind of understanding Allardyce's substitutions for once. :shock: Yes, and no https://www.dokuwiki.org/lib/images/smileys/icon_lol.gif Nolan for Song, yes, if Song was tiring Amalfitano for Jarvis, again yes When Carlton came on for Collins, I thought he...

Michael Owen hacked the BBC :D If you'd want two west ham players to have a set-to it'd be the two lads who came through the youths together (ish)... I'm sure Allardyce will bang their heads together and remind them that they were both excellent last night and have been all season. At least they gi...

Re: Swansea vs West Ham Utd: match thread

We are over-achieving this year. Some fans are suggesting that Allardyce's tactics may end up scuppering our hopes of a decent finish, I would suggest that it was Allardyce tactics that have enabled us to over-achieve in this manner and now we are seeing some more realistic results. Whilst I do agr...

Re: Swansea vs West Ham Utd: match thread

I honestly think we'd have beaten both Everton and Swansea if we carried on playing like we wanted a second, and not like we wanted to hold out for a 1-0. We are pretty good defensively, I don't believe that's the problem. No team can afford to sit back and let the other team come at them.... if yo...

Re: Everton vs West Ham Utd (F ACup 3rd Rd): match thread

Poor substitutions and negative thinking was at the core of not coming away with a win. Clear and simple. The exact point Kevin kilbane made summing up on 5live commentary Real shame as it sounded like we'd played really well, and Everton were lacklustre until the last 10 mins when we sat back and ...

Re: Chelsea v West Ham United: Match Thread

I'd be happy enough for us to go there with some 19th century football in mind...... We're gonna be on the back foot a fair bit, and if you offered me the 0-0 we got last season I'd take that right now However, whilst I do think we should be training with 9 outfield players behind the ball, we do ha...

Re: Little things that irritate you

So you ordered something from Amazon and chose to accept the next day delivery service without reading the conditions (i.e. you would automatically be subscribed to a free trial of Prime). It's kind of the point, you get a one off free next day delivery and they get the opportunity to have you sign...

I'd well notice 79 sobs leaving my account, who wouldn't? :eh: You'd hope so, wouldn't you It's one that could have easily slipped me by, as it was the last transaction before my wages went in (and a lot of bills etc go out).

Amazon, taking £79 from my account, on the sly. Whilst going through my account online, I came across a transaction for £79.00, listed as being paid to Amazon Prime 080-04962454 LU I couldn't remember buying anything from Amazon in the last few months, nevermind something that cost £79.

Re: Sunderland v West Ham United: Match Thread

Both pundits on MOTD called it a dive Fair point. I wasn't implying that most pundits thought it was a penalty (though I can see how it might read that way). More that there has been some suggestion that it was, and that some have made mention of stuff like "there was contact". Sure, it's...

Re: West Ham Utd v Leicester City: match thread

I too, think he's doing nothing wrong. He is a good option physically for a team that was hopeless physically last year. I think him, Nolan and Amalfitano are almost always playing for one spare place in the midfield 4 when Song, Noble and Downing are fit. FWIW I think Amalfitano should get it v Le...

Re: Sunderland v West Ham United: Match Thread

I'm quite shocked that a number of people on here don't see the penalty as anything other than a blatant dive by Johnson Quite I can see why the ref might feel it was a penalty. I can see how he could have been conned, given his viewing angle. But he was conned, 100%. And sure, you could perhaps sa...

Re: West Ham Utd v Leicester City: match thread

I don't want Carroll dropped, but I think he could do with a rest before the Chelsea and Arsenal games. Carroll will cause more problems for Chelsea and especially Arsenal, whereas v Leicester, we should be fine with Valencia and Sakho up front. I'd go the other way personally. That is, I'd play Ca...

Re: Sunderland v West Ham United: Match Thread

Rest him. Two great games is pushing it. Yes, West Brom he was good (I think I even said it was his best ever for us?) but on Saturday I felt the game just passed him by. I'm inclined to agree Based over the season, 3 of our 4 midfielders stand out as having to play, in my mind, assuming everyone i...
