"Two Left Feet, you're perfectly entitled to back Moyes and I would never criticise you for that alone. But instead of stating a well thought out case for why he should remain the manager, you bandy around childish insults. Admittedly, many of your detractors do the same, but to be taken seriously why not try putting forward the reasons behind you supporting him. I agree with Jim. nothing is black and white."

[fraser]

"Did Moyes actually say that if offered 3 points from the last two games he would of took it? Is that because he'd written off the Tottenham game, and hoped he'd beat Fulham. Man is a cowardly cսnt"

Pagey Who out of the 20 gaffas at the moment has been worse than Moyes last season and this? Anyone shitter than him last season is long gone Its absolutely mental that he is still employed

[Rossal]

Wils As i said in the league he has been terrible for best part of 2 years. Thats win % has been boosted by last years euro campaign and the first two years after his return. No issue with that as back then him and the team were much better. All that credit in the bank has long long expired though. Whats his win% in the league last season and this?

[Pagey]

"Moyes has to go because the football is just turgid, but to say that he’s the worst manager in the Premier League over the last two years is absolutely fucking ridiculous. Why does everything on here have to be all or nothing? Have some balance, perspective and reality."

[Sydney_Iron]

See the Moyes interview saying that sickness in the squad was a factor? Hope they didn't have a Lasagna after the game at Spurs.............

[wils]

Rossal With you all the way through most of that post. But the last line doesn't stand up as well as the rest of the post considering he has won some silverware and has the highest win ratio for a West Ham manager.

[El Scorchio]

Truthfully we haven’t actually played very well aside from in spurts for a fair few weeks now and have largely been scraping by on luck and last gasp goals masking poor performances. Something like this has felt due for a little while. Didn’t expect it to be against Fulham though.

[Mex Martillo]

"Disappointing to say, Mubama has not impressed. First touch needs to improve. Too many back passes. Doesn't risk taking people on. Today he should have shot with his first touch, controlling the ball with first touch meant the second was at 2 defenders blocking the shot. Bowen should teach him that. Probably a bad time to come on with a depressed bunch or worn out players. But that's the opportunity. Early days still."

[Dr Matt]

"Thought we were poor in possession and a little scared at times. However, Fulham were absolutely sensational. Best team we’ve played this season by a distance. Their confidence and ability on the ball was like prime Fergie Manchester United. Swift passing, movement off the ball, energy, great touch and control and superb finishing. They were brilliant. Doubt many Prem teams would have beaten them today. Concerningly, the strength in depth we thought we had clearly isn’t there. Cresswell, Fornals, Mubama, Ings, Cornet, Benrahma and Kehrer are all clearly not good enough. While defensively we look shocking again. Need to go to 5 at the back as the current pairing can’t be trusted. That means we need to find a right wing back - as it can’t be Coufal. Step forward either Dan Chesters or James Ward-Prowse."

"In this league fitness is always going to be problem. I hear we've played 10 more games already than spurs or fulham. So I think somethings got to give considering the style of play we have (low possession, lots of chasing shadows). I just dont understand why he doesnt plan to give other squad members more time so that they get match fit and ready to help out? It's like he's surprised he;s got the fixture list. But he knew that in the summer! If players dont get minutes they will remain players you dont want to pick. It's chicken and egg really. You have to blood the youngsters in to help out, especially as they have the energy. I just dont get what's in Moyes' head. He just writes off things it seems."

Rossal That is spot on.

"Tena ladies haha, have you seen the shit served up in the league for nearly two years?! We are shit week in week out, dont touch the ball, create fuck all and can’t attack. Now we combine that with sitting back despite not being able to defend and we’re conceding 5 goals to fucking Fulham! Iwobi, Willian, Jiminez and Periera. Do me a favour And as for not a big enough squad…..it doesnt matter does it. He could have 100 man squad, he only plays fucking 12 or 13 of them to keep them match fit then complains about the fucking schedule which he knew since June. He don’t make any of his fucking threadbare squad any better through training or tactics. He don’t give players like Fornals, Corner, Benrahma any sort of fucking minutes or confidence to do anything when calles upon. He is the worst manager in the league for coming up two years, he is stinking the place out this season with the shit he serves up and the bollocks he talks after every wank performance"

[fraser]

Feet - of course you won't bother because you're as thick as shit... Saying we're exactly the same as Newcastle who have ten players injured.. We have one.. So you can't bother because it's not the same at all. Oh and the gem from a couple of weeks ago. Other teams hate us now because we're so tough to beat... When we lose every other game...

"No iffs, no buts, or even any whataboutery that was a no excuses good old fashioned stuffing."

[pdcwhu]

If everyone posts once we all might get the Opportunity. Nobody mentioned Spurs won today ????

[Sydney_Iron]

"Well that was pathetic wasn't it. Fuck sake West Ham. Need to bounce from this heap of shit. And WTF was all those substitutions, all i can think is he threw in the towel at 4-0 so took a few off to rest them a bit or not pick up an injury, bollocks to that!"

[bell]

Great reply Why are you being a prick? It was a simple question.

[Takashi Miike]

"he doesn't watch the games, it's why he's oblivious to the shit served up every week"

[twoleftfeet]

Do I know who is responsible for the squad? Ted Fenton? Syd King? Am I close?

[Mex Martillo]

"Twoleft, I think we need to also say last gane was a big one. Just 3 days ago we dug deep and beat Spurs. We would all perfer a win there if we can only manage one win from these 2. It's a weird league Fulham are crazy scoring goals at the moment, lets see how other get on against them playing like they are. Everton and Bournemouth are other teams turning things round and doing better. Having said that 5 fucking 0!..."

[Hammer and Pickle]

Bigger squad? Who needs a squad at all when you can build around the goal-machine Tomas SOUCEK and play the same players all the time?
