    Please don't do this, West Ham.

    We haven’t so you haven’t got the touch.

    Moyes negative tactics come back to bite him. He took off our centre forward and now has to bring on a centre forward to give us an outlet after they score.

    We are 3-1 up away from home against every neutrals favourite team and a historical bogey team for us

    Don't think Moyes tactics can be questioned right now

    We finally beat our PL bogey team on the 13th attempt.

    Incredibly impressive win. Back to our lethal counter-attacking best.

    Wish we had Brighton's recruitment team. JWP and Alvarez are rubbish.

    7 points in 3 games

    Took us 8 games to get that many points last year

    Amazing start

    Moyes out still?

    before the game Sky were saying Brighton could go top today, completely dismissed the possibility that we could =)

    What a result, we clearly went with a game plan, executed it really well and were ruthless on the counter.

    All three of our goals were well taken but especially the 2nd and 3rd, Bowens first touch was sublime and Antonio did really well to create the space and get his shot away

    For me, and it may be a sobering thought, we have won our last two games yet imo, the man of the match in both was our keeper.

    The game plan is proving effective but to be honest,(and I recognize the Debbie downer sentiment here) I doubt it is sustainable.

    2nd and 3rd weeks of 2021-22, we were top for two games after beating Leicester and drawing with Newcastle

    Lovely win. Nice to beat the Seagulls at last, although I do like the way they play

    So we've faced Iraola's Bournemouth, who had all the praise for how he managed Rayo Vallecano. We've turned over Pochetino's Chelsea with millions of transfer funds and now we've humiliated De Zerbi's Brighton, the supposed next Guardiola.

    These "young" "hungry" "imaginative" managers seem to have a problem dealing with "old" "out dated", "old fashioned" and "tired" David Moyes

    Maybe if S&G had hired Moyes in 2010 instead of Avram Grant we would be in the Champions League as they predicted

    JWP looks like a top signing at this point. He gets around the pitch, makes tackles and interceptions, and can pass, cross and chip in with goals.
  • EXETERHAMMEREXETERHAMMER
    He is doing exactly what Southampton fans said he would do. A top professional and great football brain.
  • EXETERHAMMEREXETERHAMMER
    Thought Ogbonna and Coufal were excellent
  • DJ HammerDJ Hammer
    My goodness , we really are massive…….everywhere we go. Come on you Irons

    Everyone I speak to that isn’t a West Ham fan asked why nobody else went for him. Such a perfect signing for us.

    These people that aren't West ham fans. Are the fans of top 6 clubs?

    Asking cos JWP ( in the same way as Noble) isn't glamorous or associated with a glamorous team or manager. So his qualities get overlooked or disparaged by those who are beguiled by 'sexy' reputations. So I'd expect top 6 fans not to rate him.

    A solid top level career counts for nothing, in some people's eyes . #journeyman #workhorse #notenoughstepovers

    I like a good honest player, good skills, good professional, versatile, not a prima donna. If it goes wrong, looks to step up, not pass the buck and try to transfer out to a 'better' team.

    Is my take on it.

    I’d kind of always had the opinion ‘if he was that good he wouldn’t have spent so long at Southampton’. Which probably shows I’m just ignorant.

    If I'm reading the stats right, Benrahma had the highest number of passes. And of players who made more than 2 passes, the highest pass accuracy rate at 92.6 %

    I didn't see today's game really, but I know I tend mainly to notice the things he does wrong. But looks like he was sharp today.
  • LukerzLukerz
    He was very good off the bench. Couple of chances he had to find a better ball but he was much better.
  • PrestonHammerPrestonHammer
    Fantastic ball to Bowen for the goal.
