Potter got dog's abuse going down the tunnel by the fans.

CPP will be gone in a few weeks. It’s clear now that even Sullivan will have to act, as he should have done in May. 
The problem we now have is that the squad is atrocious, probably the worst in the league. So the two questions are a) who would want the job with such poor raw materials to work with and b) with such a shit squad any manager is likely to fail. 
We’re fucked 

There’s SO much that is abysmally wrong at West Ham right now. From the boardroom, to the stadium, to the talentless manager and some of the worst signings we’ve ever made.

I was going to write a long fucking rant about all of them. But, honestly, it just isn’t worth it. Maybe another day. For now, one word:

Relegation.

Our back 3 look so slow and weak compared to Chelsea. Our midfield was nowhere to be seen and that includes Paqueta who looks lime he aint ever gettkng back any form. The times he lost ut, was ragdolled and falling over in every challenge he clearly lost. Soucek? Did he play?  

We need a whole new central midfield, another commanding CB even Stavros has to be worth a try. And it seems our new keeper is too small and lightweight? 

Can it get any worse? Yes if we dont get some central midfielders with “legs” and strength asap.  

2 games in. We currently look doomed to relegation.

Sullivan ever the spiv.  Always looking to do it on the cheap.
No strategy, no vision, no idea.
Rob Green spot on, a shambolic way to run a Premiership club.

On the way home, and the most surprising thing about the whole night? Wilson didn't look that awful. 

Everything else was expected.

Potter here to get us out the Championship. NOT to keep us in the Premiership.

As expected, with the space and superior pace and strength they have it was simple to pick us off. They look 2 yards faster especially in the middle but every area of the oark. Quicker to everything, stronger in possession, pressing us into errors.

They will be top 4 and challenging. The way to handle these teams is actually to be more compact and play them on the counter in more of a Nunes/Moyes lowblock tactic. Trying to beat them with possession is nigh on impossible.

No positives. Worse than even a pessimist like me expected.  Manager looks doomed but we have to get 2 centre mids in thats for sure. Then get rid of this 5 at the back and go 3-4-3 or 4-3-3.

Crumbs? The team kept trying I think but just couldnt match them for speed and strength. Diouf was ok, Peters looked decent coming on, Wilson was more of a nuisance than Fullkrug… ermmm… Potts tried and was better than JWP and Soucek ( not hard) but he also looked a yard short compared to most their players.  

We are absolutely fucked. Nailed on going down. Probably 20th. 

Need 4/5 new players minimum to stand a chance. Midfield and centre backs absolutely absent. Walked through us at well. 

Oh and the new goalie is absolutely atrocious. 

The bright side:
1. it’s the 2nd game, plenty of time to sack someone and get a new guy in. 
2. it was predictable, even the score line. No one is actually surprised which means our assessment of potter is pretty on point. We are not misguided. 
3. This is not happening after 2 games of a new manager, this is a continuation from January! The exact same form. The board have to be utterly bonkers to believe this guy is going to turn anything around without ridiculous money spent on transfers in the last few weeks. Even then, moneys on his system just does not work so does it matter who you buy?

I’m at peace with it all tbh. I know he’s going soon. If he doesn’t get something out of Forest he is gone. I said before the season started he needed a win at Sunderland because he ain’t getting much out anything else until October. He’s fucked. 
 

This is the 8th time West Ham have lost by 5+ goals in 9 years at the London Stadium. This happened once in 16 years at Upton Park.  

Potters still on the touchline looking pensive figuring what to do next as everyone else has gone home.

Don't worry lads, the multi-millionaires will be ok. They won't give this a 2nd thought tonight as they roll around on their money at home. They certainly won't be thinking about any of us.

What an absolute shower.

Relegation dead certs.
