⚽ West Ham Utd 0-2 Brentford (30/12/22)

[ALIEN1X]

Taking into consideration the position we are at and time left till end of the season, I think Moyes will have to make a decide if focus should be Premiereship survival or Confernece League, as i can see doing both and the squad we have?

About time Areloa gets Premiership Games?

Also noticed we never close teams down /intersect passes between oppersition

A few one man players rather than playing as a team supporting each other

Surely there has to be a baord meeting together with the players to see what the issues are.

Cant blame fatigue as there are other teams who also play just as much .ie Spurs, Man u ETC in PL, CL, may be we still need more depth in the squad

Brentford's first goal is a bit smarter than it first appears.

When the throw is first awarded, titchy Mbuemo takes up a position on the byline and 6 yard intersection.

Dawson instructs Coufal to mark the space next to him. Moments before the throw comes in, Brentford rush a switch so that the 6' 2" Pinnock (?) takes Mbuemo's place creating a mismatch against Coufal - Dawson tries to intervene when the throw comes in but he and Coufal get in each others' way at the header.

Smart.

Getting DaSilva up against Cresswell in a foot race for the second, creates another very straightforward mismatch.

I didn't see the switch, just Dawson realising too late Coufal was in a missmatch. As you say, very clever
