EPL Matchday 2

[Zidane98]

Trippier with a ripper free kick.

Bloody west ham, useless hacks ruining multi’s

I have them for the win on mine. Everything else is falling into place.

 

[kreglze]

Chelsea is going to smash Arsenal with the team named.

Eww what is that team? I Understand Iwobi wide cause he actually tracks back but I think Torreria should really be starting

 

[go you pups]

Good to see Scotty Parker on the sidelines still involved

 

[Zidane98]

ffs hammers

 

[DBAH0]

Another fun season ahead. Bournemouth bossed the game from the 40th minute onwards.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Well that wasn't fun. Some really awful defending.

Next 5 weeks: Arsenal (A), Wolves (H), Everton (A), Chelsea (H), Man Utd (H)

Not a game we could afford to lose. Really tough run coming up, think we might be in for another relegation scrap.

Looks like the hammers spent a shit load of quid on more gash



*if only they were as good as gash

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

West ham in any danger of going down or what?

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

Good for Kane to break his August hoodoo for the most part spurs did it easy but at least Fulham tried to play football

Great free kick from trippier who has improved

Not sure why Fulham bother getting schurle and sit him on the bench

Wolves couldn't even score with the extra man advantage for 25-30 minutes

Hhmmmmm

Don't think Fulham are that bad, need adapting time, but needs to happen quick enough so they don't fall behind the pack. Probably their midfield is what needs most work on gelling I think.

Goalkeeper looks solid, Fabricio tried his best, but weight of numbers against him in the end, wide players look ok, Mitrovic definitely feels at home at Fulham rather than at Newcastle.

Anyways, we take the three points and onto the next one. Our midfield and forwards need to tidy up a bit, hopefully it comes in the following weeks. Think Dele has looked the sharpest of that lot so far.

Their next two/three months don't get any easier either

Would need to be on about 15 points by the start of December for them to be in reasonable shape for when their draw opens up otherwise it could get ugly.

 

[carnthemlions]

West ham in any danger of going down or what?

Only if Ogbonna stays in the team

Eww what is that team? I Understand Iwobi wide cause he actually tracks back but I think Torreria should really be starting

Hazard on the bench though so at least there's that.

 

[Fryer Tuck]

Full Time, and it was never in doubt.

First of all, that Vardy red. Won the ball, follow through unfortunate. Shouldn't be a red. Then again, we were pretty comfortable.

I can't remember if the League game counts or not, but please just be a one game ban. Liverpool is the next league game, so that's really gonna suck.


Anyway... Wolves hype... don't waste your time. They will struggle against anyone that is at least on their level. They had their tails between their legs when we advanced, and like Everton, they were useless against 10 men.

These Wolves remind me a lot of our 14/15 selves, only with the hype of QPR. If they don't take their chances, please do not be surprised if they end up in the relegation zone trying to snap out of their funk... like us.

Their only chances came from our errors. They showed nothing after that.

An 11th to 15th place side, I'd say. I think they'll kick on in the second half of the season.

Like us, they have players in that team that can't cut it at this level. That's a lesson they will need to learn for themselves.

Cheera for the match, Wolves. You may be "The Best Ever Team In The Championship," but you're in a very different league. We'll just hold on to that crown for a bit longer.



As for us? Very good game management. Did what we needed to do. Nacho will have his chance to show what we can do from the front. Mendy MOTM. Though I woery for him every time he hits the ground.

Good to win that one.

Lol sorry, that's 100% a red every day of the week. Winning the ball means absolutely nothing with that sort of follow through.

 

[RossFC]

Noooooo.

If this keeps going until matchday 38 then it will be an all-time great bigfooty gag.

Yeah, I figured you say that. That has not been allowed for a decade... and well... I still don't know why he went that hard in the dirst place.

If the roles were reversed, I'd be calling deserved red.

What's the joke?

 

[Toffee Lion]

Big Sam will be back at West Ham by the new year.

Richarlison > Anderson every day of the week.

 

[RossFC]

What's the joke?

Say “Nooooooo!” after West Ham leak a goal. There’s gonna be a lot of ‘em!

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

West ham need some tactical nous in the dugout

They should be on the phone to Fat Sam/woy or Arry

Be like a Star Wars fans reaction to the last Jedi

Don't know if I'd say gash just yet, but we really needed to sign a dynamic Kante type central midfielder.

We looked good when we controlled possession but then Cook and Ake really controlled things and Fraser had too many legs in midfield for Noble and Wilshere.

So you're sacking Pellegrini after 2 games then.

 

[moomba]

Really looking forward to this one. Will tell us a lot about both teams I think. My first look at Chelsea's new kepa too.
