He's very consistent. Consistently poor.To be inconsistent you have to have a spell of consistency, he never has.

Richarlison's not the answer as a goal scorer for us, is he?
he's too inconsistent...
Id say he would have to have played well sometimes to be inconsistentRicharlison's not the answer as a goal scorer for us, is he?

If vicario had claimed that ball. What would have happened? Indirect free kick in the box??
It was the same v victims after they went down to ten, far too narrow.Is that the first side we have come up against under Ange that properly park the bus?
Would be interested to know if we have properly prepared and trained yet for facing such a tactic as we looked totally clueless in the final third. I cannot believe the tactic was to cut in at every opportunity and try and go through the middle yet that is what we did time and again.
Very strange because normally we are in part all about going wide and crossing and that should be even more the case against a low block.
The few times we did it with Porro for example we nearly scored or forced an error on west ham’s part.
A really weird performance from us.
you have to have confidence.. it's essential... he lacks it, unfortunately!You are being way to kind

Yeah this season is a freebie for sure especially with how we were doing when most of the squad were fit.I did say during the match that just throwing crosses in isn't going work. It's a very old school idea and we don't have the forward players to take advantage of that kind of playback evidenced in the latter half of the 2nd half when that's all we did.
What we actually need are a better standard of wing forward. None of the ones we start seem able to do all three of these things beating a man, playing the final ball or fashioning chances for themselves. A top WF does this and we have to be honest we don't have a top quality WF and it's where our attack falls down, add to that without Maddison and Sarr we lack attacking thrust and passing incision.
I don't want to say it's fine but honestly it's the first season and it's going to take time to bud the kind of squad necessary to play the way Ange needs them to play.
what point are you trying to make here?What was Nuno’s worst run?
He was linked again recentlyThe Belgium lad at PSV
Ffs it's tough at the moment.. It's not like we are not creating chances. But snatch at them they do. Tame shots, bad crosses, terrible terrible wide play. Not taking chances.
Johnson was always involved but the quality not showing. Kulu, it's constant. He is so so predictable.. Son not getting the inter play he likes with Madison etc.
Sad.
It should have been a free kick anyway as he used his hands. Ref played the advantage as it was.Yes. He didn't get much time to think, but he should have claimed that, and it probably should then be a fk.
Porro was good I thoughtManager made the wrong sub in bringing off Hojbjerg instead of Bissouma IMO. Hojbjerg was having a bigger impact on the game than Biss.
We conceded two poor goals but didn’t create enough ourselves today. I though West Ham’s centre backs played very well. For us Romero and and Hojbjerg were our best players, not much of note from anyone else.
He may have been worried about sliding out of the box with the ball in his hands.If vicario had claimed that ball. What would have happened? Indirect free kick in the box??
And also only 3 points ahead of West Ham….Really can't see how you can defend Johnson but moan for 60 mins about kulu.
The front three were poor today, including son.
It happens, some people on here need some perspective, we're three points behind the best team in Europe.
