Wolves had their reserve team out for most of the game, so we managed to keep them out other than the penalty. Kilman coming on was irrelevant, it was Wolves bringing on some of their first team starters, including that striker. Once they were on, him in particular, it was game over. Add to that us leaving on Soucek & Mouse.

It's actually funny that someone thinks keeping Aguerd on instead of Kilman would have made a difference. How thick have you got to be to think that.

One mistake I see Potter makes and Moyes did all the time is put on another defender or CD to try and deal with pressure when holding on to a lead. When a better way would be to throw on the extra striker and make them paranoid about pushing up.

If he’d have taken a CB off for Fullkrug/Wilson and then went to back 4 we would have won easily. But he is desperate to prove his back 3 works for all things. Sad.

People can argue the toss about whether he’s had board backing etc. But it’s all irrelevant. We have a shit chairman, of course. But we have a diabolical manager. And he can take that smug, ineffective 13-year-old sidekick Jimmy Krankie cսnt-with-a-laptop with him, too.



 

Sir Alf" wrote: ↑26 Aug 2025, 21:42 Potter needed to make changes after we scored and started sitting too deep. He took off Aguerd and Kilman made us look weaker at the back. Then too laye he brings on Fullkrug who woukd have given us an outball.  

We cannot deal with crosses and cannot handle midfields that come on to us. We look so weak in challenges all over the park. And Paqueta aside from his goal was poor second half and so weak.  He should be deeper as a no 8 not a no 10. We dont have the players to support him as a 10.

Potter’s in game changes not made. Thats what won them the game in the end.  But dont be fooled, our team/squad lacks the leadership, fight, physicality and speed to handle the Premier League. 

Can it get much worse? Yes, Forest away will prove that.  

A change of manager will come eventually but short term we need at least one commanding CB, 2 more central midfielders, a central striker and perhaps even a GK although Areola was not really at fault for their goals. 

We are doomed lads as it stands. Trying to play a system where we still dont have all the types of players we need to make it effective.  JWP yes busy, involved in lots of passing moves but always has to turn back or sideways and looks so lightweight and slow for the modern day Premier Lge.

Relegation looks a certainty as things stand. Prepare for the worst and hope for something better.  How depressing being a West Ham supporter has it been since a brief highlight night in Prague. It just gets worse and worse.

atleast that will get one of our shit cbs out the side.

Then you look at COCK PISS arms folded like his Nan just told him off for nicking a biscuit with 0 plan, even though we too were sitting on 2 experienced Strikers ourselves twiddling their bumhairs on the Bench. When Wolves unsurprisingly bang in 2 late goals he THEN decides to bring them both on with just injury time to work miracles.

Often thought this should be tried. He's slow in midfield, stick him upfront and get some goals and put a fast youth player in midfield.

 

Said this last season when we were struggling. Soucek up front. Forget tippy tappy and go direct leaving Bowen and Kudus running on to flick on's and knock downs. Paqueta deeper with two midfielders with legs next to him. Idea that was never tried and we don't have the midfield with legs anyway. Now we have a crossing machine in Diouf and yet Potter plays Bowen and Paqueta up front and we don't get a Diouf cross for 88 minutes!

They didn't have anyone to mark until that striker came on for Wolves. Once that happened, it was game over, regardless of what combo of the 4 we had on the pitch.

 

Haha. Fucking hell
