I'm confident we'll win more games in the group than not.
This cup suits us.

If Scamacca gets chances, he will score. I think Cornet and hopefully Benrahma can be the feeders. Things looking up. Can’t wait for the draw.

We looked a lot more like us - July 2020- December 2021 - yesterday.

There was a lot more energy and pace in the front three, and there was a proper press at times.

Ah yes of course. But it was all of 4 months ago and when you're cracking on you tend to forget these things. :oops:

Looked alright to me on the players, though I didn't like it when I saw someone with it on at the Brighton game.

I think it's fair to dislike it though for not being proper West Ham. For instance, I love the Fluminense shirt - https://www.umbro.co.uk/item/6602/Flumi ... Green.html - but if we suddenly released something like that as a third shirt then get to f***

Iron-on-transfer wrote: Thu Aug 25, 2022 11:08 pm I know it's a different level but tonight we actually did some proper chasing down, harrassing the player on the ball and engaging the opposition in an attempt to win the ball back. Something I feel we've been severely lacking so far in our PL games. Hopefully the penny's now dropped to take that forward in the League.

Quality build up and finish from Benrahma.
Exactly - point is football is a simple game, doesn’t matter how talented the players on pace, skill etc, if you don’t work hard and close people down you just don’t win football matches.

Last night we saw a team more geared to doing what they did nothing of against Brighton, close down and work hard - they now need to take that same energy and commitment into the game against Villa on Sunday.

Funnily enough, Real Madrid proved exactly the opposite of that last year: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62659271

Just left Viborg. Had a great few days in Denmark - lovely people and a beautiful place. Bit like stepping into a better future.

Viborg fans were fantastic. Didn’t hear a bad word, just best wishes and compliments.

Hoping the draw later is kind by giving us a couple of easy to get to matches in cheaper countries - I’ve spunked a load this week and will need to start targeting games more.

Quite a few Hammers dotted around on the trains making their way back. I’m always interested in their travel stories. Europe has rescued a lot of my love for the club, it feels like some sort of reward.

Strange thing to say about a defender....

But I really like Kehrers passing ability. It's always sharp and accurate and zipped in at a nice pace for the receiving player.

He sees a nice forward pass...

Of course, that won't define his time here, but it's something I like.....the ball to Benrahma in the first leg (left footed) a prime example. No messing.

Also interesting ( a bit) that when we ended the game in a four......it was Johnson who went to left back and Kehrer to right back. Could easily have been the other way round.

Just something small I noticed for the future.... see how that continues if needed again...:winker:
