2019/20 Match Notes & Ratings

Burnley

0-3: Saturday, 9th November

(Replaced Rice) "I'll be like a new signing!" he (sort of) said last week. And he was a bit. Unlucky not to score with an effort that rattled the post.

Newcastle United

2-3: Saturday, 2nd November

Only deserved to stay on because of past efforts. Did nothing today. Doesn’t come back to defend set pieces, yet he’s arguably close to the tallest player.

Sheffield United

1-1: Saturday, 26th October

The assist for the goal was simple yet brilliant, and if his teammates were better, he’d have ended the game with three assists, having put the ball on a plate for both Anderson and Cresswell.

Everton

0-2: Saturday, 19th October

(Replaced Rice) "I'll be like a new signing!" he (sort of) said last week. And he was a bit. Unlucky not to score with an effort that rattled the post.

Crystal Palace

1-2: Saturday, 5th October

October’s start is quite the contrast to September’s end. Lacked spark and creativity, not able to get close enough to Haller to be a goal scoring threat.

Bournemouth

2-2: Saturday, 28th September

Better than against Manchester United. His crossing was very good, his goal was excellently taken. He comes alive in and around the box, then can be at best neat when away from the sharp end. Is working hard to cover defensively.

Manchester United

2-0: Sunday, 22nd September

Moments win matches, and he had two of the biggest ones. First, wrapping his foot around a ball that looked to be getting away and scoring the only chance of the first half. Then his block on Lingard keeps it at 1-0. In cagey games, those kind of moments are golden, even if some of his overall play was rusty.

Aston Villa

0-0: Monday, 16th September

Worked hard and looked fitter, with some nice touches coming off. Feel he's either going to be in decisive moments or otherwise drift.

Norwich City

2-0: Saturday, 31st August

Was having an up and down game before his goal, which was excellently taken. Does have the makings of a striker about him and was the one who got close to Haller.

Watford

3-1: Saturday, 24th August

Can see why Pellegrini would like him, he is a better passer than Antonio and his height does make him an aerial threat. Wasn’t awful, just lacked sharpness and his lack of pace was notable at times. Signs of something better to come.

Brighton & Hove Albion

1-1: Saturday, 17th August

(Replaced Fornals) Had his odd moment, working his way back into football after a long time out.

Athletico Bilbao

2-2: Saturday, 3rd August

(Replaced Anderson) Another decent run-out for a player still feeling his way back to full fitness following last season's horrendous injury.

Fulham

1-0: Saturday, 27th July

Match notes to follow.

Newcastle United

0-1: Saturday, 20th July

Unlike his cameo against Man City, he did little here to suggest he should be starting in the Premier League next month.

Manchester City

1-4: Wednesday, 17th July

(Replaced Rice) "I'll be like a new signing!" he (sort of) said last week. And he was a bit. Unlucky not to score with an effort that rattled the post.

2018/19 Match Notes & Ratings

Tottenham Hotspur

1-3: Wednesday, 31st October

Tottenham Hotspur

0-1: Saturday, 20th October

Brighton & Hove Albion

0-1: Friday, 5th October

Manchester United

3-1: Saturday, 29th September

Scored (or played a major part in) West Ham's all-important second goal on the cusp of half time. Looks like he's enjoying his football; long may that last.

Macclesfield Town

8-0: Wednesday, 26th September

(Replaced Snodgrass)

Chelsea

0-0: Sunday, 23rd September

Had a decent game overall, but his performance will mostly be remembered for the glaring miss that could've won West Ham all three points.

Everton

3-1: Sunday, 16th September

(Replaced Snodgrass)

Wolverhampton Wanderers

0-1: Saturday, 1st September

(Replaced Snodgrass)

AFC Wimbledon

3-1: Tuesday, 28th August

(Replaced Arnautovic) Looked lively and the Hammer most likely to create something noteworthy. A promising start and his cameo was one of few positives to take from the game.

Arsenal

1-3: Saturday, 25th August

(Replaced Snodgrass) Like last week, looked lively in his cameo role.

Bournemouth

1-2: Saturday, 18th August

(Replaced Hernandez) Lively for a second successive weekend. Should be in contention for a start at Arsenal next weekend.

Liverpool

0-4: Sunday, 12th August

(Replaced Arnautovic) Looked lively and the Hammer most likely to create something noteworthy. A promising start and his cameo was one of few positives to take from the game.
