West Ham v Sheffield Utd (A) 10:01:2020 KO 20:00 - Match Thread

Adam

I’m not his biggest critic but Noble has been awful today. Many misplaced passes.

Lukerz

Deserved goal for SU

We have offered nothing

Can’t be patting ourselves on the back for merely competing

Holes all over the squad Jorderz. Yes we need a 'keeper, but a right back, couple of midfielders and a striker are musts too, IMO

I don't care about anything else until we have a new 'keeper.

grey_til_I_dye

We're good enough, and playing well enough to get 2 against this lot.

Hamstew

Struggling now.

OldCastleSwift

We're not scoring tonight so the game's gone.

The brains trust at the top need to address the issues and give Moyes something to work with.

Completely disagree. It's been evenly-matched and both teams have created the same chances. A howler in it and nothing more.

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

These are a horrible team to be trailing against. I think we'd be lucky to get one, let alone two.

Totally disagree. They've offered nothing.

yoyo

An hour gone and not a shot on target. Haven't really heard Lanzini. Confidence is built from the back but we have a goal keeper who can't kick straight, passing to a centre back with lead boots on. Still, half an hour to go, so still time but for Christ sake ...have a shot!!

whupathman

get some crosses into haller

jay_in_cpt

our final third play has been .....Very Poor IMO...
They are far more threataning going forward, we have offered very litlle.

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

Why can't we cross? Seriously. Utter joke how poor we are at getting a decent delivery in.

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

Sheffield just waiting to hit us on the counter

Poor from us in the final third

Would like Fornals on for Noble (who's had a very poor game)

Hamstew

Imagine if we actually took a chance and had the odd shot from distance. Only Arthur has the guts.

Adam

Our play constantly breaks down on the right hand side. Zabaleta hasn’t offered anything going forward for years now. I mean apart from his goal last week!

whupathman

foranls on for lanzni

Anderson had loads of space to do it just before their goal and didn't. Drives me mad.

yoyo

My Mum on for Lanzini

OldCastleSwift

Snodgrass coming on. Can only assume Fornals isn't 100%

jay_in_cpt

Looks like Snodgrass on for Arthur & a change in formation....

grey_til_I_dye

I think we've played really well, without creating too much. If we keep playing well, we will create chances.

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

Noble is lucky not to have been subbed.

OldCastleSwift

Goal ruled out for offside :weep:

thornburyiron

Good finish but went too soon. Our first shot on target and it doesn’t count

yoyo

Took it well. Shows what he can do with decent service

ianbishoplegend

Was the Sheff utd goal offside. Looked like the scorer was infront of the passer

whupathman

Almost

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

Awesome delivery from Snoddy, though. Give him the ball.

Personally, I think 'really well' is pushing it. We've done ok in spells, but just not good enough in the final third
