Re: West Ham Utd v Leeds Utd Match Thread - Struijk starts, Rodrigo makes the bench

Post by White Riot »

I was working today, with the match on the laptop beside me with audio off, so it was a bit difficult to fully focus on the match.

Then the bloody stream crashed with 10 minutes to go and I was too busy to get it back on :?

But from what I saw it was an absolutely thrilling match, and the lads really did us proud. I'm absolutely delighted for the lads and Bielsa, the away support and all of us who've had to watch some dire performances this season.

Really does give me a buzz to see us play like that and inspires hope for a much better second half of the season.

Hopefully, we push on and get up that table.

Thrilled with all of them and especially the younger lads Meslier, Struijk, Bate and Hjelde, as this might herald a really bright future for us.

Most pleased for MB as things have finally clicked into place for him this season.

We were the better team and deserved the result: West Ham and VAR United 2 Leeds United 3 :)

It may be disappointing that we got 2 more injuries, however, the performance , and those coming back from injury/suspension leaves us in a good position,dominated today, VAR did their best AGAIN to rob us, but we carried on regardless, beat newcastle and away we go.
The main thing is to take the positives and confidence will grow.

I was thinking about the VAR goal again.
If that had been a West Ham player on the line and the ball hit him in the back and went in who would have been awarded the goal? Klich or the defender?
It would have been given to Klich because the shot was on goal and the deflection didn't matter one bit.
I'm now thinking that VAR screwed us again.

Our result today has Newcastle fans in awe. They are definitely not looking forward to next weekend.
Lots of complimentary comments though re; Bielsa, players and LUFC in general.

Can’t stop looking at the table, talk about disaster averted, hopefully not temporarily.9 points off relegation places. Above Everton, 1 point behind villa and got a game in hand over palace, Brentford and Southampton which would put us above them if we won it. Still concern over injuries but we seem to have adapted to Philips been out and are now winning without him, bamford coming back will make all the difference.

Problem is they're yet to win under Howe, and you know what that usually means!

I understand that comment SG, lets be honest like, newcastle are bab, cannot score and concede way too often, we are on the up, we have more fire power, and are just hitting form, newcastle have no form at all, a 1-0 win will do for me, I do fully expect us to win this game, anything less, especially after the last 3 games of improvement will be failure.
I did say, I'll re-assess things after the 23rd.
Onwards and upwards pal.
