West Ham v Leeds (H) - Monday 8 March

steve

need to slow it down .Noble perhaps

OutcastLondoner

I hope we don’t end up paying for all these Benrahma shots. No one seems to be upset at him but he needs a simpler chance not these wonder goal attempts

yoyo

To be fair, they don't come much slower!

thornburyiron

We are giving them far too much time.

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

I think we're letting them come onto us because we are solid defensively and they have a habit of leaving themselves short at the back.

Feels like a deliberate plan and it's working pretty well.

OldCastleSwift

Niggly team, Leeds. Some would say dirty.

OldCastleSwift

Man, these handball rules are confusing. Should we have had another penalty? I think maybe so.

I thought that second block from Phillips looked like a handball, but I have no idea with the rules

Feels like the second one could have been on the way in, and his elbow moved. But it did get a deflection, so I don't know.

MunichHammer

The first probably not but the second certainly. Unlucky for Leeds maybe, but that elbow was pointing away from the body.

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

I think the Phillips one was the more likely

But honestly at this point not really sure what is and isn't a handball....wasnt much either of then could do

Need.to slow this down a bit, Leeds starting to turn it up

thornburyiron

We keep giving it back to them.

whupathman

does the lids manager shout at his team in Spanish

thornburyiron

Wasted a break there.

OldCastleSwift

Lingard made the wrong choice

OldCastleSwift

Benrahma off. Moyes with the wrong choice now, IMO.

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

Said has been okay but think he's the right player to come off.

IronHerb

Right choice imo. Just tightens us up a bit but still with an attacking threat.

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

Not really happy with that

Think Lingard is looking leggy (and a bit wasteful)

Benrahma our best attacker today

thornburyiron

Rice should have done better there

thornburyiron

We are living very dangerously here.

OldCastleSwift

I still don't understand Fornals as a player. I know he works hard. I know he has talent. I know he can pick a pass.

But he just never seems to bring it all at the same time.

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

That was a huge chance

Fornals needed to be a bit stronger there on the break, lost it a bit too easily

whupathman

another huge miss from bamford

OldCastleSwift

Lingard has started to overplay things a bit. Need to keep it simple and keep hold of the ball more.

Lukerz

Our counter attacking has been sloppy. We have had so many spaces to exploit yet it’s taken a penalty & corner to give us our lead.

yoyo

It might bring him down a peg to take him off in the last 5 minutes

IronHerb

Why would you want to take him down a peg?

IronHerb

Antonio needs to come off.

Him and Lingard are spent.
