It's amazing what happens when you have a proper defensive midfielder who just sits in front of the back four.
to be honest. Obiang had a great game, and thought Snodgrass did much better
than I expected. A.C. was at his best, causing havoc in their defense, if only he
could stay fit for a whole season, we would be up there pushing for a qualifying place in Europe.
That wasn't the team - that team had Zarate (who scored) and Oxford in it? And also featured Nolan, Jarvis and Maiga off the bench?
'Hammers stuff Saints' is headline of match report on OS.
;doh
At £4.5m, gotta be one of the best bargains in the league for his age?
One of the best DM's currently.
He's not got as many tricks, but he's definitely got the delivery, and as you say the work rate too
Actually changed my view on him. Not the most glamorous signing, but looks and just feels like a proper West Ham player.
It'll be 3 of the current bottom 5 imo. Boro will get out of it.
* I've just sentenced boro to relegation, get your bets on.
Think it flicks his heel before going in.
When Payet was playing, he would cut inside which would leave Cresswell with a one on one vs the right back. Cresswell isn't quick and doesn't take the ball past players, which meant he often played the ball back.
With Snodgrass playing, he often stays wide, which means he occupies the right back. It means that Cresswell has a bit more space to cross the ball and doesn't have to take on players.
Obviously it's only been 1 and a bit games but that's my first impression.
Cue delirium. ;wahoo
I was surprised Feghouli got in above Lanzini, didn't know he had flu, but he put in a shift and is still coming to grips with the PL. Noble had his best game of the season and even timed most of his tackles. Led by example.
AC did what AC does. Hope he's ok. He took on fluids and possibly a tablet late in the first half so hopefully this was just precautionary. I was pleased with Snodgrass as I wasn't particularly over the moon with his signing but he showed that he is a decent Prem player and will do well for us. Antonio played well in patches but his lack of technique caught him out a few times and he slowness in getting back gave away a number of offsides. Randy did his bit with a couple of decent saves and Cressie didn't really feature, which as a FB is not such a bad thing especially after his poor game on wednesday.
So who does that leave? ;hmm
Oh yeah, Pedro Obiang. Fantastic, absolutely fantastic. ;clap ;bowdown ;clap
Great result, decent performance. Southampton weren't Citeh and we dealt with them accordingly. Roll on the Baggies.
For fans, yes, for 'media reporting'? Not so much, imo.
And, separately, didn't think we 'stuffed' them, anyway.
Not really - Pottsy's goal dribbled through the goalie's legs and did not even reach the net!
I'd predicted this as 2-1 loss, but didn't want to add to the pre-match gloom. Very happy to be wrong about that. And the new ref had a good game, too. ;clap
