Agreed Vexed - they talk about it at length in the Liverpool Manchester City game, but no mention of the clear one against us.

Also - Ings seemed genuinely emotional in that short interview. I still reckon he’s a good striker, just that moyes has fucked him by not playing to his strengths.

He’s also doing the same with JWP that he did with Fornals. Playing him out of position and then subbing him off. Won’t be long before he’s not starting.

Sincerely hope moyes goes this summer.

2-0 down to the bottom team in the Premiership, it doesn't take a tactical genius to work out we have to attack more in the second half. Everyone in the stadium would have made the changes Moyes made (but from the start). Yet again, he has to be dragged kicking and screaming into playing this way.

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Burnley- Official Match Thread

Moyes is a cunt and there's just no getting round that and dying in a fucking fire is probably too good for him, this we know.

But how the fucking hell have we been denied two pens in consecutive games for the stoniest of stonewall fucking handballs you'll ever fucking see? Am I losing my fucking mind or something?

They didn't even mention it on motd.

JWP started the season really well but has declined massively in the last few months.

I don’t believe he has suddenly become a bad player.

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Burnley- Official Match Thread

Moyes blaming our midweek exertions on that appalling 1st half then tries to take credit for putting Ings on.
What the cunt won’t do is take blame for starting JWP and Phillips. Two dm’s who are both negative and fucking useless.

100% truth. My 10 year old son was wearing his alverez shirt, as I called him alverez creswell turned around and started chatting, it was a bizarre encounter but he is obviously a very decent fella and he made a fuss of my son who you could of knocked over with a feather. My Mrs and daughter missed it, only to see creswell stick his thumb up to us as we left in the car

I know Cresswell is loaded, but I I would have taken him for an Aldi or Asda man.

Is that the truth or a load of bullshit?

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Burnley- Official Match Thread

Imo we will struggle to play a pressing, attacking game against a fair few teams simply because Moyes has not recruited players fir that way of playing. The squad of 14 he uses contains too many that are old and/or slow. But against teams like Burnley and others that are struggling we should be effective at pushing forward.


Rebuilding needed along with a proper coach not old school dictator like Moyes imo.

Need to replace the following as starters OR even as squad backup
Aguerd ( not physically up to it in the Prem )
Zouma ( crocked, slow , unable to pass )
JWP ( slow , not able to compete well enough physically)
Phillips ( slow and plays like he’s 40 )
Soucek ( slow and unable to pass / control wl enough )
Coufal ( ok but not as a starter every gake as he’s getting old and slow)
Antonio ( old and technically inept but ok as impact sub)

Need to bring in 5 or 6 players imo especially with a new coach who does not play Moyesball. So pretty much anyone who we get to replace Moyes

No word of a lie but I’ve literally just been chatting to creswell in Waitrose, and even he said the first half was shocking

Feel for Moyes?

I appreciate your optimism, and yes, teams down the bottom can be tough to beat, but even Stevie Wonder would have seen that Burnley play out from the back but are absolutely shit at it. It took 45 seconds of pressing for us to score a goal. Moyes is a fucking div for sitting back in the first half like he did.

Nobody cares about Spurs, but its clearly a relevant comparison. They made a change and play front football against their direct peers. We sit still and play backs to the wall shit yourself football against a properly shit Burnley team. A team who’s captain was shipped out of our club for not being anywhere near good enough and barely kicked a ball for us.

And as for Villa, do they play a better brand of football than us and sit 4th in the table? Yes on both points.

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Burnley- Official Match Thread - Preview

First half was the worst I have seen us play all season. No pattern of play, no energy, no urgency and no game plan... Against the worst team in the league.

Second half was obviously much better and arguably we could have won, but it is worrying how many chances we give away every game.

Burnley still had 2 or 3 really good chances in the 2nd half despite us dominating and playing better.

They could have nicked it.

Our defence needs a complete revamp and you can see why Moyes was desperate to get Maguire in back in the summer.

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Burnley- Official Match Thread - Preview

That first half display was unbelievably awful, embarrasing and cowardly, I know we may have to play defensively against the top teams but for Moyes to set us up to play so timidly against the bottom club and at home is unforgiveable. Yes the decisions went against us and we were better after he made the changes at half time but I've lost any patience I had left for Moyes and just want him gone in the summer if not sooner, if I hadn't already bought tickets for Thursday night I wouldn't be going after today's performance

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Burnley- Official Match Thread - Preview

Branded, pitch in the 1st half looked fine on my overpriced Spanish stream.
Whatever the reality was, can it excuse our abysmal 1st half performance?
Have to agree at half time I never imagined I would type that overall I thought I thought we did well and we deserved to win.

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Burnley- Official Match Thread - Preview

Didn't see the first half, which as just as well seeing some of the comments here. Second half showed why Bowen should be on the right, was far more effective. Ings I feel a tad sorry for. If I remember rightly he was MOM the last time he played and hasn't kicked a ball again until today. He can still finish but clearly needs to be in a team that plays on the front foot. Do we need an entirely new back four? Aguerd probably not fort but looks like he is made of glass. I like Mav but is he a Premier League defender? Likewise Coufal and we all know Cress is finished. Phillips and JWP off at half time? Mate of mine is a Southampton fan and can't understand how bad he is compared to his performances at Southampton. Doesn't say much mind you they were relegated!
