So do I Swannie.
That's the thing, he will despite the others being better. I just don't get it.

I'm sure someone from the coaching staff will pull him aside and explain that he wasn't pulled for anything he did (or failed to do).
I’m sure they will, we don’t want another Dramah drama on our hands.John in Louisiana wrote: ↑Sun Jan 16, 2022 5:13 pm I'm sure someone from the coaching staff will pull him aside and explain that he wasn't pulled for anything he did (or failed to do).
I did mention the pass from Ayling to Raphina out on the right was sublime DDBDDB220 wrote: ↑Sun Jan 16, 2022 5:09 pm
Read through the match comments - the rollercoaster element of that game is evident. But honestly do people really need to call out a player otherwise having a great game for the odd mistake. Ayling was brilliant - that boy was our only platform from playing out of defence.
He better not do.
Yes, Ayling won the ball to send Raphinha on his way for the Klich disallowed goal and that is exactly what he is capable of. He is very good at RB, just dodgy defending at CB. Overall, good to see Struijk back and Hjelde performing so well which means that Ayling will be at RB for most games from now on.

My neighbour, who is a (not so happy) Hammer, came round ours last weekend, but it was round to his this afternoon
Tbf he did grudgingly acknowledge that we did deserve that one

Saw a few spam fans almost in tears. Days like this do not come along often. A few heads turned with my cheering.

James - needs to work on his touch but he makes me tired watching him. He is none stop.
If I was being critical the only player who generally disappointed me in comparison to the work rate of everyone else was Klich. I cannot remember him winning one 50/50. He looked asleep far too often. But that is how he plays I suppose - very languid approach.
Bate was an astute sub. It was tactically brilliant in terms of changing the momentum of the game. Not sure why as he didn’t really do that much / it just upset spams game and put them on the back foot somewhat. Some tactical changes are just beyond the comprehension of even the most self proclaimed arm chair experts
Best 3 points we will win for a while.
Plus Cresswell back soon too.1964white wrote: ↑Sun Jan 16, 2022 5:27 pm He better not do.
Llorente, Struijk, Koch are better, then how promising are Hjelde & Cresswell?
Not decrying Coops in any way, we could have done with him this last month or so, however for Liam to waltz back into the team because he's captain would be wrong, he has to earn his place!
Hopefully with Llorente, Pascal, Koch & Hjede available, we won't see Ayling at CB no more this season, suicide balls out from the back & got tied in knots a couple of times. Luke didn't have a bad game, did his best, but he's not a CB.
We do miss Ayling, he's a big wholehearted player for us, much more proficient as a RWB though.
Just embarrassing himself.
