Everton vs West Ham | PL | 29.7.25 | Predictions and Match Thread

[stubbo-admin]

Until West Ham find out mojo again,  a game against a David Moyes managed side will always have some kind of extra significance.

Layer on the pressure on Potter who looks like a dead man walking, and this game is under intense scrutiny. 

It looks for all the world like Potter has two games, not to save his job, but to buy a stay if execution, against Everton and Arsenal, made none the easier by these two being amongst the best set piece side in the league....the Hammers clear achilles heel.

The stats this far have backed up the eye test...West Ham ARE terrible at defending the box, none of the keepers help out on crosses, and we give up corners willy nilly.

But if Potter is to cling on, nothing but a win here will do.

Post Game

Breakdown: 





 

[Massive Attack]

Quality play by Diouf and shock horror a dynamite finish by our boy Bowen!  

[ragingbull]

Incredible Diouf 

[Tomshardware]

Diouff what a beast of a player.

[Tomshardware]

Get in!!!

[zico]

Yes bowen

[onsideman]

And Summerville is pissing me off tonight with his lack of end product. A poor man's Kudus.

 

 

You really are a collosal wanker

[El Scorchio]

Potter choosing JWP looks really foolish right now. Magassa was decent. Wise move to not risk another yellow. Now a chance for Potts. 

Makes you wonder even more just what Potter was seeing. 

[Sir Alf]

Paqueta is not a team player. 

Magassa withdrawn because of the yellow card. He was a red waiting to happen. But looks like he voukd be a real asset

We need a central forward desperately

[Tomshardware]

This commentator is awful.  

[Come On You Irons]

And Summerville is pissing me off tonight with his lack of end product. A poor man's Kudus.

[Come On You Irons]

As ordinary as Everton are we don’t look in the least bit threatening going forward. Can’t see us getting anything out of this. 

 

 

This. We've had one shot on goal all game. Pathetic.

[RootsRadical]

Promising first start from Magassa.

[Any Old Iron]

As ordinary as Everton are we don’t look in the least bit threatening going forward. Can’t see us getting anything out of this. 

[Tomshardware]

Magassa had a decent game, good to see Potts given a chance.

[Keep dreaming]

FFS, we can't get out after a corner.
Looks like we are going to concede every time they get close to our box

[Massive Attack]

Well done, Nuno bringing Potts on.  

Are you watching Potter you fucking waste of space?

[Massive Attack]

Excellent cross as per by Diouf and lo and behold Fullkurg caught on his heels too slow to the ball.
 

[Keep dreaming]

We are a bunch of powder puff girls, no bite at all

[ragingbull]

Mav almost cost us.

[northbankboy68]

Sounds like we are being overrun now

[Massive Attack]

Good defending from Kilman.

[Massive Attack]

Got to watch himself on a yellow now as they'll no doubt target him.

[stubbo-admin]

The result may be the same, but I thought that passed the eye test. This is a competitive match which is more than we can say about most of our games this season and last. Much more intent in the middle and attacking third. Fullkrug is at least receiving service, and summerville is giving us another dimension on the left flank. Still need a lot of improvement and you can only polish a turd so much. 

Tend to agree. Much as we should have done better with the goal was a great header.  We had a couple of chances too.

We at least showed intent going forwards.

[El Scorchio]

Might as well be watching Everton TV here. 
Even the fucking co commentator Andy Hinchcliffe played for them for 8 years as well. 

Ridiculous. 

[Mex Martillo]

Come on Nuno, make some racket and kick their Fucking fat arses. This is not good enough.

Sub:
Igor for Kilman
Potts for Paqueta . Okay Fernandes as can
Marshall for Fullkrug 



 

 

 

 

 

I think Nuno will give them some grilling, looked pissed especially with Paqueta fucking about wheb we had their box full of our big headers.
