Not a super fan just prefer to judge someone fairly, without an agenda.

Please, when you take a liking to a manager you'd argue the grass was bright pink if they said it was.

Georgie steals it

1-1

Looking like it's going to take 40 points or maybe more to stay up this season. The good news is we're right in there and fighting plus we have the following to come at home during the 2nd half of the season; Brentford Fulham Forest Burnley Wolves Let's hope it doesn't we are fixated on 1ppg ...

Been really good West ham tbf

They'd be furious if they dont win this I'd imagine.

Brighton couldn't complain if they were 3 down.

And now they are

1-0 Bowen

Bugger

Immediate impact from substitute Callum Wilson with the assist

Missed a chance or two Jimmy but been the best player on the pitch by a mile.

West Ham should be winning

Poor Cjay - he has to resort to snide digs today to attack Farke and twist every positive to a negative. Such a strange way to live. Cjay will still be trying to work out why his football manager 532 formation failed. It literally wasn't a snide dig :lol: You moan when I say anything positive and ...

Nope you were making an error after googling the time of Leeds susbtitutions and basically copying what AI put where they mixed up average time of all susbstitutions not average time of first substitution. Has always been around the midpoint of the second half where he looks to make subs. The ...

It did

He did.

My initial reaction was wrong as I said later.

A fair reaction given what's gone before.

What has average time of subs got to do with anything? Who cares what time his 5th sub comes on? He usually makes his first subs halfway through the second half so no change this week apart from the City match where James was injured. Awkward man, I was being nice :lol: Ok, he makes his 1st subs ...

Just a bit of humour

He made his subs in the 65th minute today. That's about the usual time he makes them! Against Chelsea 67th minute. Earlier change v City likely more due to Dan James's injury which gave him the choice over whether to simply do a like for like sub or try something different, something that they may ...

Taken a lot of stick.

But he made 2 great saves and we lose that game without him imo.



Also felt he did better with the balls into the box as well.

Good game Lucas.

Ah good I think you finally grasp the point I was making earlier in the week about how the application, mentality etc of the players was more important than the formation. Obviously they can go hand in hand and one without the other doesn't work (as shown today). Simply changing to 532 would have ...

Just seen what he's said

That's mental levels of tantrum because of being benched for a few games after being poor.

Four points in two games against Chelsea & Liverpool, yeah - it's a surprise. Not just a surprise but an incredible outcome, so tell it like it is cjay, Farke had the goods on Maresca and Slot thanks to a team that's playing for him and the fanbase. None of this damning with faint praise nonsense ...

Itk dude. Happy chappy DF was definitely fighting for his job this week (hence the owners coming over). He's Marsch'd his way through this" (his words don't shout at me). Can he keep it up? Who knows. He's been more proactive this week (which is true). But the away form is still a large concern so ...

Hopefully some of the people who seemed to think 'their' 532 formation was some sort of magical formation will actually give Farke a bit of credit today. We were poor today for a lot of the match whilst playing the 532 struggling to contain Liverpool or offer much of a threat ourselves. The changes ...

Positives- pro active changes, change of shape, increase in aggressive pressing and passing and eventual draw.

Negative-we seemed to settle for a draw until we were losing and then had to change as the progression and aggressive pressing only appeared after
