MC Prussian Posted 4 January 2018 Share Posted 4 January 2018 All that moaning and complaining about the "death of the long-range goal" and then you get to see two of them in the same match! Pretty goals aside, a pretty dire match on the whole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limeydale Posted 4 January 2018 Share Posted 4 January 2018 Gotta applaud West Ham for that. Didn't think Moyes would turn them around but he's slowly doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, but by god it's ugly. Bus parking, jammy late winners, Andy Bloody Carroll and today they utterly shithoused that point. The Premier League deserves better. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd developed a bit of a rep there for providing some absolute comedy with some woeful stuff but he seems to have settled a bit since Moyes has come in.

limeydale Posted 5 January 2018 Share Posted 5 January 2018 It seemed to me there were a lot more draws this festive season than in recent years, so I checked back to 2012/13. 2017/18: starting 22nd Dec 40 games, 17 draws, 23 wins. 2016/17: starting 17th Dec 40 games, 6 draws, 34 wins. 2015/16: starting 19th Dec 40 games, 10 draws, 30 wins. 2014/15: starting 20th Dec 40 games, 13 draws, 27 wins. 2012/13: starting 22nd Dec 39 games, 7 draws, 32 wins. So yeah a lot more draws. I'm wondering if managers had a hold the line mentality and a draw is enough, or the players were more knackered or the whole hullabaloo from the managers in the press about the festive schedule affected players psyche. Any thoughts? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Maul Posted 5 January 2018 Share Posted 5 January 2018 Moyes is really doing a cracking job, didn't think he had it in him any more. Question is, how long before the fans start droning on about doing things the 'West Ham way'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To generate that much power and beat Lloris as he did was brilliant. Unless you mean Son... But then again that was brilliant too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When exactly do we wanna play these games? I don't know why they did't put a midweek game earlier or later in the season rather than cram them all in such a short period of time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. I'm sure there would have been room to have put a midweek fixture sometime in August, September or October, without disrupting European or league cup fixtures. Could probably have done more than one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea why Chelsea do what they do but I don't see the sense in loaning out Loftus-Cheek, Baker, Zouma and letting Chalobah go for peanuts then spending multi millions on players to fill out the squad. I expect Conte will get fed up and quit at the end of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
