Re: ⚽ Brentford v West Ham Utd: match thread

Benhrama is a nightmare! If people are honest, we will never be a level up with players like him and others, good players don't get better they get more consistent, it's fine doing one good thing one in every four games, you need every game, it's what makes the top players class, we need that class...

I’ve called this for a long time. People are blinded by the fact he can ping a nice cross field ball. Defensively he is a liability more often than not.

Re: ✍ Gianluca Scamacca

I think he’s actually proven he can play in this system. He’s actually scored quite a lot of goals for us. I hope he stays.

Re: West Ham Utd v AZ Alkmaar Europa Conference Semi Final Match Thread

I'm not sure how I would approach the away leg being 2-1 up. Do we go at them from the off and try to kill the tie early or do we invite them on and hit on the counter? Well fans always want to go out and attack, majority of managers would sit back and counter. Very confident that we will sit back ...

Re: Europa Conference League 22-23

Basel are 5th in the Swiss league, they are also 25 points off first. They are NOT a good team in relative terms, they have clearly put a wonderful run together in conference league and they should be commended for it. They’ve beaten Nice over 2 legs and have just beaten Fierontina so kudos to them....

Re: West Ham Utd v AZ Alkmaar Europa Conference Semi Final Match Thread

Their confidence seems to come from the fact they overturned the deficit against Anderlecht, which is a pretty simplistic and naive way of looking at football.

Re: West Ham Utd v AZ Alkmaar Europa Conference Semi Final Match Thread

Yeah, and whilst others mention they turned around a 0-2 deficit against Anderlecht, AZ were awarded, and scored, a penalty in the first couple of minutes which certainly changed the dynamic of that game. Keep these guys at arm's length next Thursday and smash them in the mouth when we get the oppo...

Re: West Ham Utd v AZ Alkmaar Europa Conference Semi Final Match Thread

They are. They are also built to counter attack and you cannot counter if the other side doesn't commit! We did what Moyes does best, make the opposition look blunt. We also did what Moyes does badly, try and keep the ball and grind down the opposition. That isn't the natural game for this team or ...

Re: West Ham Utd v AZ Alkmaar Europa Conference Semi Final Match Thread

Nobody is saying AZ are crap, but they were built up by many before the game as a young, energetic, great technical team - none of that was on show last night. They ran out of steam, hardly attacked and didn’t show any great technical ability. It’s not outrageous to state that, we should take great ...
