Manager has stated we can't afford a centre forward& that’s why we should have gone all out for someone like Antonio.
Can’t believe a professional manager can’t see that we are crying out for another striker.
How about it singing “we’re gonna win 4-3”?Will the machine boo em off at the end?
Starting with 5 defenders at home is always a worrying sign. Are West Ham worthy of those tactics?Certain games need different tactics and different players and this is one of those games!
If we are still paying Slimani then why not put him in the Squad.
Lumping the ball forward in the last Ten mins may not be pretty but it would have put pressure on them at the back today
Rodgers has been out thought today with some basic tactics.
Our plan B is the same as plan A with different players!!!
Daz, we needed a striker more than we needed a centerhalf in the st ettinne lad we’ve bought, so we did have the money.Manager has stated we can't afford a centre forward
Just not at it today. Balls that tried to play through the lines blocked and snuffed out down the wings
Because we didn't have the personnel. Praet was injured and so was Maddison. We were short of bodies in the midfield.You could see it after 10 mins they were going to play the same way we did at the Etihad so way no change????
Perez & kelechi are strikers on paper. They don’t walk the walk & are not good enough for a team who want to finish top half.No that was our problem end of last season we had to play Morgan. So we desperately needed a centre half. Also a winger and full back was more of a priority. We got the players we needed. Perez and Ian Nacho can play centre forward so it wasn't as desperate as the other positions.
There are no excuses ......as I said it was plain to see what was happening early on so why did'nt we change our formation and mitigate there plan, Antonio was always going to be a threat with his muscle and speed just outplayed by a guy in the stands who saw our weakness and applied a resolution pity Stuart Pearce was there.Not good enough for a team who wants to finish tip half where did we finish last season. Perez and Ian Nacho were a big part of that.
Stuart Pearce was taking telephone instructions from David Moyes (who was at home). Ans writing them down and pssing them to Alan Irvine.There are no excuses ......as I said it was plain to see what was happening early on so why did'nt we change our formation and mitigate there plan, Antonio was always going to be a threat with his muscle and speed just outplayed by a guy in the stands who saw our weakness and applied a resolution pity Stuart Pearce was there.
No. Only the disallowed 'goal' was on target. In 90-odd minutes.We were gash and they ran the show
Did their keeper even make a save.
Cue Eddie buckin Waring "Up and Under"Perez is a shambolic excuse for a player. You’d think that he’d up his game now that Under is here.
