I'm not saying the rules are great, but if they're going to penalise the goalkeeper for being 5mm off his line then they should also apply the rules for the attacking players too. That's only if the penalty is scored and the encroacher was a team-mate. I was on about if its saved and a defender encroaches without touching it, its not retaken. Edit - I see you did say attacker, sorry for the confusion. Edited 11 December 2020 by The Bear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Encroachment into the box or off the line is only penalised if the encroacher gains an advantage- ie, the goalkeeper saves it or the defender/attacker is involved in a rebound off post or keeper. I believe that fabianski couldn’t have been penalised if the pen had been put wide ...... hence the players entering the box are equivalent to the keeper and Leeds are as bad defending set pieces as we are !

RowlattsFox Posted 11 December 2020 Share Posted 11 December 2020 Leeds are worse thsan us at set pieces, like us just don't have enough physical players on the pitch. West Ham have looked good, Moyes building a similar side to the Everton one he had. Strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paninistickers Posted 11 December 2020 Share Posted 11 December 2020 I can't work out whether to actually admire Leeds, despite disliking them and the media love in all season. Man for man, they haven't a single PL level player. They absolutely stink of championship but at least make a fist of games. It's gonna catch up with them though, surely. Tactics and systems can't disguise a lack of ability long term Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manini Posted 11 December 2020 Share Posted 11 December 2020 I don’t know how it’s happened or what’s going on elsewhere in the wider universe but Moyes has found his feet well and truly at West Ham. Did a job on Leeds tonight. Reminding me of his time at Everton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koke Posted 11 December 2020 Share Posted 11 December 2020 West Ham looked impressive in how they closed the game down. They should have killed it at the end but bar the one big Rodrigo chance Leeds basically didn't offer much in the last 10 mins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't not watch it full stop but pointing out really that I'm finding myself watching less and less. I take absolutely no pleasure from saying that either. VAR and behind closed doors really has just ruined it all a bit for me personally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winteriscoming Posted 11 December 2020 Share Posted 11 December 2020 Moyes is a decent manager. He struggled at Man Utd but who wouldn’t after replacing arguably the greatest coach of all time. Deserves credit for turning it around as manager. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Nacho Posted 11 December 2020 Share Posted 11 December 2020 The case of the over-rated vs the under-rated tonight. I didn’t watch the game but just looking at the stats it seems as if Leeds have been worked out. Let them have the ball and they’ll struggle to break you down.

gurru991 Posted 11 December 2020 Share Posted 11 December 2020 I think by the end of the game Leeds have shot their wad & have very little left . They huff & they puff but can't finish. I think they have been found out & could still end up in the relegation zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they're quite safe, mainly because three or four clubs won't even sniff 40 points. Which is about what they will end up on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stadt Posted 11 December 2020 Share Posted 11 December 2020 West Ham’s recruitment has been decent the past few years. They’ve got a lot of tidy players now and a well balanced squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Horse's Mouth Posted 11 December 2020 Share Posted 11 December 2020 Moyes has always been a top manager, but you cant be a hipster intellecutal hyping him so he's always lost in the shuffle. Id have Moyes here over Bielsa any day of the week. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AjcW Posted 12 December 2020 Share Posted 12 December 2020 Bollocks I knew I should have waited a few weeks before praising Moyes. I got laughed at a few pages back He’s always been a good manager, worth remembering he’s not the only one to have failed at United! West Ham recruitment the last two seasons especially has been spot on. Soucek is just a superb talent, love watching him, his goal scoring record for a DM at his last club was outrageous and he’s doing good numbers here too. They then looked at the success of his transfer and went back to the same team for Coufal who also looks excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koke Posted 12 December 2020 Share Posted 12 December 2020 Moves is a mid table manager and West Ham are a mid table team. If they finish 9th they would have done well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
