West Ham vs Lyon (H) Thusday 20:00 KO

Lukerz

Also, where is VAR? The sooner we get rid of that pointless system the better. It’s had no positive impact on football.

Seeing it at half time, I don’t understand why Zouma is jogging. If he combs back then I don’t think Cresswell gets sent off.

claretandbluesky

Clear foul, should have been yellow and free kick.

Ref is poor but Cresswell was poor also, all he needed do was run inside Dembele as his first touch was heavy and took it wide.

Ref has been very poor throughout the match so far and Lyon are playing him for all they can get.

EXETERHAMMER

Hated the wink. I wish I could swear.

It’s going to good going through by beating them in front of their own fans

Cresswell keeps his hands to himself he will still be on the pitch

Lukerz

Yes it’s poor from Cresswell 100%.

But still doesn’t) justify a red because he has made a poor decision.

Let’s play them at their own game second half.

claretandbluesky

Sadly 0-0 and Rice avoiding a yellow may be a good result now.

OldCastleSwift

Lyon realised early on that they could control the ref. Carried that on all half and got Cresswell sent off.

Will need Benrahma's pace on the counter in the second half so I say Johnson for Fornals.

If one of our players got somebody sent off like that and then winked, I'd be disgusted and embarrassed.

Glad I support West Ham and not Lyon.

I don’t think I’ve ever disagreed so hard. I never want to support a team that behaves like that.

Lukerz

The ref will be aware of the winking. I think he’ll even it up second half. We need to stay in the game until that point.

Pengeman

Never a red card. Ref is a muppet.
Now Moyes has to earn his corn. Do we play 3-4-2 or 4-4-1? Who play LB? A substitutions or move Fornals there? Who be football manager?

Outside of the red, I think they’ve had plenty of control of the ball but we’re dangerous on the break. Benrahma has had plenty of chances to open them up and failed to do so, and I’m sure he’ll be off at halftime for Johnson. Two banks of four, play for set pieces

Are you having a word in Moyes' ear?

Tbf it’s the only decision, Johnson is a good defensive fullback. Set pieces are our best chance of scoring.

OldCastleSwift

Benrahma hooked. How surprising.

Can't see us doing anything in the final third now.

steve

Johnson for Benny .think i would take Bowen off,At lest Benny was getting the ball

He wasted the ball every time it went to him.

yoyo

I feel so deflated. I can take losing but that was just cheating. Anyway, 1-0 will do nicely

He comfortably did more than Fornals.

steve

I like Fornals

OldCastleSwift

I like Fornals.

But he's done nothing in the game.

steve

Think he has done okay
