Sorry the post is late up.

After what feels like an age since we limped past Burnley, we're off to the seaside to take on many peoples favourite second team, Bournemouth.

All hussle, bustle and high intensity, Iraola's mob are the modern watch word for modern style, and there is plenty to be concerned about with talented forwards and great energy in the side.  But they've lost the last two, comprehensively against Villa, and if there is a good time to play them....maybe it's now.

After the last international break, Nuno went full Looney Tunes....let's hope for a modcum of sense this time around.

Predicted Lineup:

Hard to see beyond a team similar to the last few games, but with Paquéta suspended, all eyes will be on who replaces him from a squad devoid of any real creative influence.

No doubt the temptation will be to shoehorn Soucek into the side, but against the high energy Cherries, it surely has to be Magassa, with Fernandes pushing forwards.

Areola

Wan Bisaka  Todibo  Kilman  Diouf

Magassa Potts

Bowen         Fernandes            Summerville

Wilson

Subs: Hermansen, Mavropanos, Igor, KWP, Soucek, Irving, Kante, Guilherme, Earthy

Predicted Score:  A desmond.....2-2  (Willson, Soucek)

[Jaan Kenbrovin]

That was an absolute disgusting second half  performance. I’ve never been so ashamed of our football. We completely gave up trying, and treated Bournemouth like they were Real Madrid.

I’d have lost my rag with Nuno if I was Callum Wilson. What that cսnt was thinking I’ll never know. Playing defensive only football will get us relegated so long as Kilman is stinking up the pitch.

11 games in and already I can’t wait for this season to be over. 

[Massive Attack]

Fullcock cannot play for us again.

 

 

His pristine kit always looks immaculate at the final whistle. Never, ever see him getting himself dirty and stuck right in the German fanny. For such a big geezer as well he minces around the pitch like a cuck asking around politely if anyone's seen his wife at all - in football terms meaning the ball. 

Cannot wait till he fucks off in January, the massive waste of space.

[Sir Alf]

We completely run out of steam at 60 mins. It was absolutely a point won thx to Areoka and Wilson because Bmouth should have scored 4 or 5 if Areola’s legs were so long.

Nuno made bizarre subs. Weakened an increasingly struggling midfield.  Thats why Bmouth got on top and rrmoving Fernandes was suicidal imho.

We are so slow as a squad and it was just hoof it back to them most of the game.  

Kilman slowest of the slow and gave them the psychological boost they needed with a needless handball. He had to slide because he’s so fvckin slow.

Areola MOTM by a country mile.  
Todibo was our best defender.  
Wilson for 2 goals from nothing

They were our 3 outstanding players and Bowen did ok with no service.  
Fernandes and Potts tired and started struggling from the 60 min mark but Potts battled all game so did ok.

All Nuno’s subs weakened us.  And Magassa must be absolute gash if he cant get any minutes. He wss exactly what we needed in a game where we were being overrun by their speed and movement.

Anyway a point stolen in the end

[Fauxstralian]

Not seen it but sounds like we’ve stolen a point 
Stats are horrendous
24% possession, XG 4.08 v 0.65, 10 shots on target to 2
Bournemouth are a decent team even without Semenyo but that’s poor

[Mad Ferret]

Nuno WTF dude.

You take the point, but that second half is unforgivable.

[Metroplex]

A good first half predictably ruined by yet another idiotic sub courtesy of yet another tit of a manager. 

[Come On You Irons]

Didn't watch it but it didn't surprise me we didn't hold on to a two goal lead and in fact should have lost in the end by all accounts.

Radically good business in the January transfer window is the only way we will avoid relegation.

[Keep dreaming]

Sick to death to see that type of capitulation.

Nuno got it ALL wrong after a dream start the Moyes MK2 fucking cսnt

Feels like a big loss, and btw Soucek can fuck right off the useless sack of shit

[Any Old Iron]

NES has to stop making crap decisions that keep costing us points or he will definitely be taking us down.  

[Sweep]

Would have taken the point before the game, but we've mismanaged our way to losing the other two.

[zico]

Well who saw that second half onslaught coming?!   Areola gets credit for earnning a point or it could have been six.  Ok with the wind it was going to be tough and not much on the bench but both tactics and substitutions baffling.  Füllkrug was embarrasingly lazy when he came on, strolling about, you can't tell me that Wilson would have run any less than that.  A point but very fortunate.

[claypole]

Hope I don't see that sort of surrender from the manager again this season but probably would have taken a point at the start.

[nychammer]

Good thing is we play Liverpool next

who have just lost 3-0 at home to Forest and will be smarting. Nay chance

[Massive Attack]

Thanks to Nuno's wacky tactics 2nd half of taking off Wilson early who was on course for getting the Man of the Match award, he ends up swapping it for the Keeper Areola who managed in the end to save us a point.

[kylay]

Out of relegation zone on goals scored for the moment

[Maverick180180]

I have zero faith in this clown in charge 

paid a fortune to make mistakes no West Ham fan would make 
 

[COOL HAND LUKE]

Well...  we certainly threw THAT away didn't we..?

That could easily be our last point for 4 or 5 games now - if ever we needed a win, today was the day.
 

[BRANDED]

Good thing is we play Liverpool next

[goose]

Fuck off Nuno.
Fucking shit.

Absolutely no joy taken from any of that.

[kylay]

Senesi coming in studs up at knee height on Bowen. Wonder if that would have been yellow had it been against arsenal. 

Take the point. Fuck me second half was a tough watch. 

[BRANDED]

Terrible management

[stubbo-admin]

Well called the Desmond....and there it is. Maybe I'll play the lottery.

[nychammer]

a point is a daylight robbery. We are utter fucking shite and if thats how Nuno wants to set us up we are properly fucked. 

[nychammer]

30 seconds to go - cna we hang on?

[claypole]

Nice to see the German raspberry jogging about
