Spammers are always up for this and we need to be at it to stop them doing anything but whining about how unfair it is to be caravan dwelling inbreads...

This is a massive game coming after the Brighton collapse. Hopefully everyone returns from international duty fit. Not impressed by West Ham this season, but as you say they do have a way of upping their game against us.

If we don't win this Ange hasnt shouted enough after the Brighton debacle. They have been bang average this season, although they will turn up I'm sure.

1230 kickoff. Good excuse to have an early beer!

No excuses for Ange imo. Our squad is miles better and should win this and comfortably. If he decides to ignore managing the game and continues to go Ossie on it we could get picked off so let's see if he's starting to realise that this is not the SPL.
I'll go 3-1.

I do not like 12.30 kick offs. This is their big game of the season, hopefully we start off well and score a few by half time and kill off their momentum, not going to be easy though.

It would be useful if the players remember that the match last 90 minutes.

Far better bench today. Surprising what just a couple of players coming back in can do.

Just terrible individual defending there. Not for the first time.

Agree, Udogie needs to be stronger 1 v 1. Still, we are playing miles better than them so we should be able to recover……hopefully!!!

Bowen is too good for Udogei... Defensively, he's been poor this season so far.

Again lots of bark and very little bite from us...

Solanke seems to be a passenger again.

Commentators can blame Porro all they like for that but Udogie lost 3 separate duels and let Bowen get pasr him to cross that.
Yeah that’s who I was talking about with individual defending. Udogie needs to improve that aspect of his game sharpish.

Still think we’ll be ok in this one but we need to score quickly or the grumbling will begin at home.

Udogei aside, I look at the individuals in that backline and I don't feel like we should have any issues... But we always fucking do...

Maybe it's our set up that doesn't give them enough cover...? The DM can only do so much after all. If our wingers are always cheating (Johnson not being goal side as a prime example) were always going to struggle...

Definitely fair to say that we play a very high-risk system that depends on everybody doing their job basically every time. What you’re talking about is a great example of that. One breakdown and we’re in trouble.

Holy Fuck Porro!!!!! What a goal that would've been..

I do wish Maddison would spend less time waving his arms at the ref. Needs to be stronger physically out there..

We need to find the balance... Totally agree that the best form of defence is attack... But we can't keep it up for 90 mins and we have to be able to do the dirty stuff the other end.

Great response to the goal. With some luck we could’ve had three

Should be about 5-1 up. Hopefully this one doesn’t come back to bite us too.

I think we’ve gotten better in transition. We don’t get opened up on the break as much as we did last season. And I also believe (hope) we’ll get better as players like Udogie mature.

Watching him, I think of Kyle Walker when he came to the club years ago. Brilliant player but prone to switch off when defending in the box.
