We were a couple of minutes from being the first team to beat Tottenham in the Prem this season, in a game which saw them restricted to very few attempts at goal. We offered plenty of threat and but for a ridiculous bit of decision making from Zaza, should have made it 3-1 and been out of sight.
Admittedly it's gutting to lose it like that in the last few minutes and Bilic has rightly held his hands up and shouldered some responsibility. But to suggest that we were poor throughout and devoid of a gameplan is misrepresentative of the game.

Re: Bilic ES Column

So he thinks it was a good performance apart from his sub of Payet? We were poor throughout the match as a team. There were some outstanding individual performances but he hasn't addressed the problem which we also had in many games last season of getting us to play a system well and everyone knowing their role.
It seems we rely heavily on Payet or Lanzini to do a bit of magic or Antonio to bundle one in. Absolutely devoid of a gameplan. Until he addresses the root cause of the performances then I've little hope we will have much to shout about.

I'll even forgive him using 'United' to refer to Manchester United, although my preferred option is to blame the journalist.

Unfortunately, his comment about the Mancs not hitting top form seem a bit hollow after last nights performance from them. So, basically, Mancs hit form just as we arrive and Rooney, the thick scouse cunt, has only got 1 more goal to score to equal Charlton's scoring record. So A penalty in the match is 13/10 and Rooney to score any time is 2/1. We may as well get on it because this is West ham so you just know what's going to happen, he will have scored 1 and they get a, quite obviously NOT, a penalty in the 94th minute for him to get the record. Its the West Ham way.
OR, sliding door number 2. He egts the winner against us to equal the record and then gets the winner on Wednesday to get the record. Yes that sounds exactly like us.

"Who the fuck goes into the season not knowing his best formation??"
Well Conte changed Chelsea's formation to 343 about the same time Bilic did and they're top of the league.
In any case I'd rather a manager try to change things than stubbornly carry on with his preferred method if it doesn't work.

Personally I think the thing Bilic has got wrong is approve some shit transfers. Where they all originated from is academic. The manager approves every signing and if he didn't want some players he should have said. It is his fault we are without a decent striker after spending several millions.
I still like him as a manager and hope he gets beyond the January window OK when returning Tore and Zaza and replacing them with a couple of new signings would make all the difference...

Impressive he's kind of put his hands up but still needs to factor in past mistakes that account for the position we're in, 2-0 up against Watford to lose 2-4 to then capitulate against West Brom, draw against Boro; this is what'll see him getting the sack.
The players have contributed to this but ultimately they follow the managers instructions.

Re: Bilic ES Column

With hindsight, it was a mistake to sub Nordtveit for Payet, but at the time, I saw some sense in it, as Dimi was kanckered, after playing two matches for France he was lagging a bit, and I thought it was the Noggy's big chance to earn some brownie points. History now tells us that went tits up.
Fine lines, because Bilic was so close to being credited with a tactical masterclass for what happened during the first 88 minutes.
Horrible kick in the nuts that made me so sick I couldn't face coming on here for days. A point on Sunday will help a little, a win would help alot. We can do it, hopefully we do do it.
COYI!

It's funny that all of those managers are SIGNIFICANTLY more successful than Bilic?
He's fucked up too much this season, he's lucky to still be there already. Who the fuck goes into the season not knowing his best formation?? Even when you've signed the likes of Tore, Nordveit, Feghouli, surely you had a thought about where they would play?
Oh yes, Antonio at RB.
I've lost count of his fuck ups this season, the Tottenham one's were just the final straw for me.

such a fine line in games like that. if Randolph hadn't got his fingertips to that that cross and ogbonna cleared it we probably would've seen out a famous victory.
substitutions would barely have got a mention.
