Bazly Posted 11 April 2021 Share Posted 11 April 2021 If we get thrashed by these its hard to see anything coming out of the games against Spurs, Nab U and Chelsea. Maybe we have 6 points left in the season which should be good for 6th or 7th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we repeatedly get done by a long ball front to back! West Ham have done the exact same as they did in the home game. Yep, precisely the same tactics. Sit with a deep block and hoof it long looking for second balls or a counter attack. Primitive tactics really but it's worked a treat. The first goal is a one in a million hit.

NaijaFox Posted 11 April 2021 Share Posted 11 April 2021 We conceded a similar goal to their second in the first game (Fornals scored that one). You would think we would be looking out for that ball over the top. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted 11 April 2021 Share Posted 11 April 2021 We have nobody that can get Vards in the ball. Maybe get Amartey and Praet off, go to a back four and Tavares and Albrighton on? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychonaut Posted 11 April 2021 Share Posted 11 April 2021 My arse dropped out on that 2nd goal. No energy, desire or grit. After last season as well.. they look like they've conceded the top 4 already. It's this symptomatic of BR? Probably looked at the train of teams behind us and thought **** it damage limitation time again. You watch him start talking the other terms up around us now and demeaning ourselves..

ARTY_FOX Posted 11 April 2021 Share Posted 11 April 2021 They'd have still more than likely scored anyway but kasper charging to the corner of the 18 yard line just ensured he had no chance. Stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pliskin Posted 11 April 2021 Share Posted 11 April 2021 (edited) 45 minutes to save the season, but it’s going to take a performance beyond our capabilities. No complaints West Ham thoroughly deserve that lead. We’ve been a shambles, and they’ve picked us apart like wet tissue paper. Whatever it is about significant games this team can’t handle it needs sorting, because it’s becoming an issue. We all and myself included said being out of the Europa league would be good for us, but actually it’s just another example of us not being able to cope with big games. Can blame Madders and Perez, but even those two in the side wouldn’t have helped, man for man we’ve been poor. We look timid, we look incapable of creating anything. When the going gets tough, we bottle it. Can forget next week, if we can’t even get up for this how can we that? Lingard will end up with the match ball and a place back in the England squad after today. Edited 11 April 2021 by Pliskin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Shire Fox Posted 11 April 2021 Share Posted 11 April 2021 Its just so slow and narrow, there is literally no pace in the side for a fast break at all. Praet playing far too deep aswell, we need him in the 10 role behind the striker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corky Posted 11 April 2021 Share Posted 11 April 2021 Our shooting has been awful, either daisycutters into the keeper's arms or aimless hits well wide. We've had promising positions and not done anywhere near enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number 6 Posted 11 April 2021 Share Posted 11 April 2021 Don't think we've been too awful but have picked the wrong options when in the last third and then had a complete brain fart for West Ham's second. Got in some decent attacking positions so just take advantage, West Ham have been left clinging on after going ahead recently so must replicate that. Most disappointing is that West Ham look more up for it than us. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasmic123 Posted 11 April 2021 Share Posted 11 April 2021 Fed up of the lingard love fest, one sliced finish and a tap in. Way they're going on you'd think he was the best player in the country 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtmcfly Posted 11 April 2021 Share Posted 11 April 2021 2 minutes ago, IsItMuzzy said: The back 5 with Amartey just does not work. Negatively affects every other player in the defence because they're having to compensate for his lack of ability on the ball and lack of positional awareness. The desperation to blame Amartey for everything is bizarre. Both goals down the rhs, absolutely nothing to do with him. As for his 'lack of ability on the ball' his forward passing has been miles ahead of anything Evans and Fofana have managed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuchsntf Posted 11 April 2021 Share Posted 11 April 2021 I want to make a knee-jerk statement....So far too paasive..we havent as a Team learnt anything...

gerblod Posted 11 April 2021 Share Posted 11 April 2021 We've been the better side, but they've been sharp when they needed to be. I'm afraid Amartey is an accident waiting to happen and the spring awakening of Iheanacho is appearing to be yet more wishful thinking by hopeful fans and the hype-upped media. He's out to lunch much of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
