Imagine if Antonio didn't scuff every other shot.

MrsGrey

Imagine if the City defenders gave him a bit more time and space.

alderz

WOOO!

MrsGrey

Crikey.

I hope that doesn’t make them mad.

Who is this team and what have you done with the real West Ham

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

Have we been the better team? I think we might have been.

yoyo

Well!! What a half. I've been disappointed with Johnson's delivery but over all a great performance. Well organised and we're playing good football

Yeoldhammer

ok im turning my stream off and on again.

Stream died and when i turned it back on we had scored :O

I still think he scuffs an awful lot of shots. Don't get me wrong, I love him. But it would be nice if he could up his ratio a bit.

Can’t see us even scoring here so it’s probably going to be a damage limitation exercise.

Mmmmm

You say that every time we play City thorn.

And normally I’m right but this is a different West Ham or this season hasn’t yet started and I’m in a coma

I think we’ve looked pretty solid, and dangerous on the break too. I hope we can keep it up, but it’s a HUGE ask. I think Walker’s been a bit dodgy for them, but then you’ve got Cancelo to replace him who has been brilliant all year, Aguero and Torres look rusty, but Sterling and Foden are waiting on the bench. That’s not even thinking of Bernardo or Jesus.

Their bench is frightening

No Fredericks

Is it from Ikea?

Great 1st half...
Sadly Johnson has been a bit of a liability, but hey, he's young, he's prepared to try his best, so ...COYI.

Deanscaleshammer

Feel they are the better side, move the ball so well and have more individual quality. We have defended brilliantly in all areas of the pitch and threatened on the break. Coufal left his man for dead for the goal and then pick his man out from the byline for the goal.

We just need more of the same. I wonder if we can keep it going for 90?

Interesting. My take on Johnson has been not great but still made a good contribution defensively keeping Mahrez pretty quiet.

Is the Beast woken up yet

alderz

Oh good. Randolph down injured.

EDIT: apparently Fab got trodden on in training yesterday?!

steve

Great just Great

Well that's not good....

yoyo

I think we should put Martin on but keep Randolph on as well!

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

Needed everyone to be at 100% to get something from this

Already lost 1 keeper today....and now we may have to rely on Martin our 3rd choice

Like in cricket when you have a runner, can we get an extra keeper to get the ones Randy can’t get to?

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

This has been a really enjoyable game

Not giving City too much respect, giving them a real fight here

MrsGrey

Are we all enjoying ourselves?
