Sullivan still got more say than is claimed! Until that piece of đź’© sells up, we are doomed to championship
antonymmartin845d ago
Just a shambles. Squad full of poor/ average players after the board did everything on the cheap in the summer. A captain who is not in any way a leader as well doesn’t help.

Mavrapanos made the incisive point that it is hard to make a comeback because there is another team out there, trying to win the match. Yes! I wonder if their training ground drills focus enough on playing five aside or whatever against each other. I hope it isn't just set passing formations.
dantowen819515d ago
I’ve just been looking at the stats. If you only look at goals scored in the opening 30 minutes of games, we’d be 20th We’ve also gone behind in 11 of 18 in all comps We’re just giving ourselves a mountain to climb every single week
jo.hadland5d ago
Seriously, the board should never have got rid of David Moyes. Aside from that, there is clearly something wrong with the way in which West Ham train. People keep saying that the players are complacent and expect to win. Perhaps the way they train makes them think that they are smashing it.
caleb.sage6d ago
Gotta be doing better man. This West Ham squad should not be 9th in the Championship.

It's obvious, to me, that Nuno's lack of man management skills has had a negative effect on most of the players Parker needs to use the international break to instil confidence back in to the players and I have no doubt that he can do this
jo.hadland5d ago
@igrimshaw01 How is Parker going to instill confidence in the players, when the fans are booing Mad's every move and singing at the top of their voices that the players are not fit to wear the shirt.? Kante committed a professional foul to see the team right at Millwall and was a hero. Now, apparently ,he's a villain??

Needs time, but major adjustments are needed but will have to make the most out of the break
seanfisher6d ago
All this should do is avert attention to the players, perhaps it’s them that should be taking more blame clearly
michaelrglynn6d ago
Way it’s going , I’ll be happy if Parker can keep us out of League 1.
michaelrglynn6d ago
Awful again, Hermansen at fault again. So here’s the numbers: for automatic we need min 90 points. Thf we require 67 points from 31 games, ie more than 2 points per game, in every game. It means approx 21 wins and 4 draws from 31 games. WHU don’t do that kind of consistency. I think it’s already playoffs at best.
mitchfarrow576d ago
@michaelrglynn another year in this league me thinks!!!! ⚒️⚒️
jo.hadland6d ago
Soucek needed
pwithey16d ago
Yea, give him time at least for the most part we looked more balanced and organised….but.. Mukasa gives us nothing, he is supposed to be our creator, he had one shot and never created anything..apart from the goal Piroe is the CF we need not good enough Soloman done nothing when he came on, Astubo was good why take him off, also Veltman was poor. Myers 👍🏻
dantowen819515d ago
Yeah agree on the Austbo sub. He and Mayers looked our two best players for 50 minutes. Solomon looks abysmal at the moment - confidence is totally shot
peter.lynch6d ago
Of course he needs time, but I imagine he would have been dreaming of three points in this one giving the timing in the calendar
kyle.dimond6d ago
Parker probably top of the list of people who are happy about the international break. Desperately needs this time to really settle in
wmw5twfhm56d ago
Parker needs the tools to build a good side that is combative and fights for every ball THE WEST HAM way ⚒️ We need fighters Bonds Dicks Collin’s etc
dancoombs6d ago
Give him time. The break comes at a good moment now, West Ham should come back a completely different team
chillout6d ago
They will bloody need to they want promotion. 9th now.
wmw5twfhm56d ago
We don’t have the players to challenge at the top of the league we have no fight and we make too many poor mistakes
wmw5twfhm56d ago
We are awful in defense giving up too many chances to opposition attackers! Our midfielders don’t win the 50/50 duals and are poor tacklers! And our forwards aren’t clinical enough! Also our goalkeeper is too small and can’t save anything! If kretinsky doesn’t invest substantially in January we will be a championship side next season!
chillout6d ago
I think the first thing Parker needs to do is to appoint another Captain - Bowen is very underwhelming. Soucek is the man for me.
jonathan.gorrie6d ago
@wmw5twfhm5 Nail on the head, just hope Parker can build a platform over the break. If he doesn't, it's going to be a very bad season indeed
kyle.archer6d ago
West Ham's squad will need to enjoy shooting drills during the international break. Parker must be fuming that they only managed five shots on target from 20 attempts, and only two of those came from inside the box!
matthew.johns6d ago
Far from an ideal start for Parker, I think the international break has come at just the right time for West Ham!
freddie6d ago
Damn… new manager bounce hasn’t happened has it! Where’s it going wrong
michaelrglynn6d ago
It’s going wrong because Nuno kept picking blatantly underperforming players; eg Hermansen, Pablo, Taty….. and wouldn’t consider any of the bomb squad. SP now has a huge task. 4 defeats is costly enough : 12 points lost, but so is 5 draws: 10 points lost. I would play Ausbo on the rt wing and move JB into the middle. No one else is scoring.
chillout6d ago
I think too many players believed the BS that West Ham would walk this league without breaking a sweat.
chillout6d ago
Clearly beyond disappointing - why is it that, despite who the manager is, we start so slowly match after match? If you keep giving sides head starts, they often end up taking points from you. He has got to put this right asap.
jonathan.gorrie6d ago
Spineless. Need to change the GK ASAP
dantowen819516d ago
Never been so relieved to see an international break
suede1166d ago
@dantowen81951 I fully agree with you. What we need right now is time to get back on the training pitch and rebuild our confidence.
