We look dreadful down the left. Moder and Trossard completely ineffective

It's square peg in a round hole when it comes to Moder playing as a LWB.

Very lackluster from both teams and I am surprised that West Ham are not pushing on as they are after European football whereas we have only a better position to play for.

Looking like we're on the beach. Not at races so far pretty poor all round. Hoping for someone to spark us into life

West Ham need the win, we’ve subdued them very well.

Hmm Gross has had about four chances to cross and every ball in has been absolute shite. He has also given the ball away a couple of times in dangerous positions. He is the weak link imo.

Alzate has done well as has Ali J

All just my opinion though

I was thinking Alzate has offered absolutely nothing going forward, nor has AJ to be fair .
Together they passed back and forth to each other 7 times , neither wanting responsibility to run with the ball.

Zamora now coming out as a WHU fan. Disappointing

xG of 0.12 during that half. Based upon that surely being the worst this season so far, we are certain to win.

Gross had one great cross and then four absolute stinkers into nowhere. Needs to come off for Lallana.

Haven’t even seen Maupay tonight. Get rid.

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

Burn has been pretty solid so far as has White. Webster seems like a mistake waiting to happen since he has returned from injury and Sanchez needs to think about where the ball is deflecting to when he makes a block save.

Burn made more mistakes than Webster that half.

Unpopular opinion, we are missing the things Maupay does well. Linking midfield to attack with clever movement dropping short.

.

Ali J had quite a few through balls which were pretty perfectly weighted, but the one for Wellbeck was probably the best of the lot.

All the forward players faded out towards the end apart from the last minute of extra time.

Having a blunder by not playing to be fair. We’re really missing his movement and link up

Even our trusted xG is letting us down - 0.12 at half time. That’s pretty grim!

All about opinions. Alzate has run with the ball pretty well imo and has had good feet. Ali J has played the ball off well and his shot was probably goal bound.

Slowly slowly intricately back and forth work towards the box, passes get shorter and shorter until… pass straight to the opposition. And repeat, and repeat, and repeat.

Id only we could find a quality final ball......

This is a makeshift team playing a team looking at Europe, they have to be more up for it than us. Just the way it is.

Should watch on Star Sports Select 1 with Matt Upson and Glen Murray.

He came out as a West Ham at the Amex before one of our matches against them. Was being interviewed on pitch and had received big applause. Then said he was a Hammer and the Amex went silent for a second or 2.

I think it depends on whether we think the forwards should link better with the midfielders, or the midfielders link better with the forwards. If the former, then yes we are missing Maupay, if not then we are missing Lallana…..
