← West Ham vs Fulham

How are you feeling after West Ham's EFL Cup exit? And which of the fringe players stood out, if any?

grahamwatts2w ago

I think the club are well aware we will need to strengthen the squad should we be promoted. The criticism that we didn't spend big this summer will prove to be wide of the mark as we will need that money and more once promoted!

That’s a good point about saving the money! No spent spending £150m on Championship players if the squad was good enough to get top-two anyway

After watching that, it’s clear to see we are a long way off PL quality. Herrick absolutely not good enough, as many of our youngsters aren’t

dantowen819512w ago

Herrick needed a loan I think. Not sure why he didn’t get one? Maybe the Areola injury scuppered some plans

Numo’s comments about Pablo after the game are just too crazy to believe. Slowest player on the field and loses the ball on majority of times the ball is played up . Scored a goal…. Miracle in itself . 🤪

dantowen819512w ago

Pablo spends more time on the floor than he does on his feet 😂if you look at his stats, he’s only had two shots in six Championship games this season If Pablo is gonna succeed, we have to get him in goalscoring positions more often. He’s a good finisher, we’ve just never seen it

Taty missed a sitter where is the same energy?? Engels wasted one over the bar.... and bowen.... same energy.... muppet

Promotion is the real aim this season forget about cups

dantowen819512w ago

100%. Main thing was not to pick up any injuries

cumberworth572w ago

Bit concerned about Nuno’s comments about Pablo, stinks of nepotism! He patently is not good enough at this level, granted it was a good finish but he’s not up to the level required

dantowen819512w ago

I’m stupidly hoping he does a Tevez and follows up a massively long drought with a ton of goals haha

cumberworth572w ago

I thought we had nothing up top, Pablo scored, thank god, but offered little else, Ajala is not ready. Another Nuno defensive masterclass, spare man over on their left the whole game and needed someone to sit in but no one did! Cost us the first 2 goals. Big mistake by Kante for their 3rd but keeper should have saved it. On to Millwall, far more important

ray.baxterct19512w ago

How on Earth can you tell us Ajala is not ready? He's played minimal 1st team football, not played in the right position if he does get bit parts. He is a proven goal scorer, so sort out your facts. Nuno is not brave enough to check him out properly.

dantowen819512w ago

We didn’t have enough of the ball in the first half I thought. Couldn’t get it back when Fulham passed it around us. I thought last night showed we need Magassa or Alvarez up to speed - need that defensive mindset and a bit of aggression out of possession

jordan.harris2w ago

Real shame, but having more time to concentrate on the league isn’t a terrible thing

jamesshearman232w ago

Pablo scored! That’s worth celebrating, even in defeat

dantowen819512w ago

Haha I didn’t think I’d ever see the day
