Decent player, but a diver.

Maybe, I wouldn’t know really. I don’t watch much unless it’s us.

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

I don't care whether a neutral would or not watch. I am, and I see two solid teams cancelling each other out. West Ham, though, seem to have more room for improvement in this game. I don’t care much either as of course I’m invested as a Hammer, but as far as I’ve seen they’ve had two half-chances a...

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

You’d switch off if you were a neutral, wouldn’t you?

We seem happy to sit and take a 0-0 if necessary, knowing that if they attack more we have more chance on the counter.

They seem to want to take the initiative but are afraid of being caught out, so their attacks are a bit half-arsed.

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

Both teams, but especially us, look more afraid of attacking and messing things up so just look to keep things tight and hope for the best.

0-0...
Depends how you look at it.

From Moyes’ point of view I imagine he’s satisfied. We’ve limited them and chances are at a premium.

On the other hand we can’t keep the ball and have threatened just once in attack.

We are clearly set up for a 0-0 or 0-1. Hopefully it comes off.

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

Can see Phillips starting ahead of Ward-Prowse, Aguerd in for Zouma and Fab in for Areola, but that’s it.

Possible that we go for a more attacking lineup against Burnley and bring Antonio in for Soucek or something similar.

Anyway, 1-1 draw I reckon.

Re: West Ham United v Brentford : match thread

Am taking a first-timer (American) on Monday night. Any recommendations for pre-match pubs with a decent atmosphere? Am well aware the atmosphere in the stadium itself could well turn sour given how things have been going so would like to give the person at least a pre-match drink in a decent place.

They’re playing away to Man City, and managed five shots in that first half. Will be impressed if we manage two a half when we go there.

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

Change of ownership. Otherwise it'll be more of the same. Cyclical bull**** for 14 years now. I mean, I think most of us want that. No one wants Sullivan gone more than me. But it ignores the issue of Moyes. Are you saying you’d stick with him as long as Sullivan is at the club, no matter what tran...
