this ref saint helping

[Sir Alf]

Yep need Paqueta to drop and get Ferguson on as we have no central midfield

We should be 3  or 4 down
 

[Any Old Iron]

Ffs get Alvarez off. He takes an age to get back and cos he’s slow he gives away a foul on the edge of the box. The geezer is a liability

[threesixty]

I can’t even work out what we think we should be doing here?
Can someone tell me what the plan is?

looks like a team that hasn’t practised or planned anything for this match. 
 

[Keep dreaming]

Fraser, happy with Alvarez so far?

[claypole]

Have they been having a knees up in Dubai or something during the break

[goose]

Alvarez looks like he’s pulling a caravan.

[Nutsin]

Why did Soucek pick up a yellow, he didn’t touch the player and there was fuck all dangerous about it, Fuck knows what this idiot commentator is talking about saying tackling with a straight leg is dangerous play ffs. 

[Keep dreaming]

Time and time again out two midfielders are lost in space.
One of them has to be dragged off.
Paqueta must drop back and give place to Ferguson 

[Takashi Miike]

bizarre he changed the shape, and who is supposed to be playing in front of the back four? it's like moses parting the red sea, every time the cunts get the ball. abysmal so far

[goose]

This is as bad as I’ve seen this season.

any clearances or ball in behind we’re absolutely fucked.

[Tomsdad]

SHOCKING!

[Nutsin]

We offer no threat down the left. Areola is playing lights out, Paqueta so lucky he was offside. What the fuck was he thinking with playing the ball across the face of our goal like that, it’s fucking school boy stuff.

We play better when Paqueta is not in the team.

Potter Needs to do something before it’s too late.

[threesixty]

Whatever he thought he was gonna do it’s clearly all wrong. 
Can he afford to get to half time without changing it? Sparing some players embarrassment? 

I have no idea with all those expensive players out there why we are so shit. 

I just don’t get it anymore. 
are we just cursed???
 

[Keep dreaming]

This can't go on.
​​​Seriously changes have to be done
Appalling midfield, and Paqueta as forward is just laughable 

[Any Old Iron]

This is atrocious. Potter has produced no improvement at all. This is as bad as anything under Lop.  He needs to shake things up pronto. Get Alvarez off and bring on Ferguson. 

[Sir Alf]

The limitations of Soucek, Alvarez and Soler one paced being exposed

[Sir Alf]

Running thru central midfield like a knofe thru bitter

[goose]

So lucky not to be 2 or 3 down.

we’re so shit.

[nychammer]

Embarassing. Schoolboy stuff. What a let off!

Wake up West Ham FFS!

[Maverick180180]

Glad to see our manager doing nothing about his awful line up

anyway I can change my username to Voldemort?

[nychammer]

Brentford bossing us. Well saved again Areola. Have we had a shot in anger?

[goose]

Brentford just need to let us have possession in our own half & we’ll keep giving up chances.

[Nutsin]

It’s clear he’s got the selection wrong already.

Yep, I agree. Why Isn’t our new center forward playing ffs.
Bring him on and get that cսnt Mavrapanos off. Every time they attack they look like a real threat, Defensively we’re a mess.
