    Of all the games for the defence to go a.w.o.l.

    We need to move Ward-Prowse into the middle or bring on Romeu as our midfield is getting over-run.

    Really thought we had a great chance today, but we have no control in the game. PEH, Boufal and Smallbone are not in it at all. JWP has been brilliant, Armstrong busy, but otherwise the rest are headless chickens.

    I personnally never thought we would get anything against a physical team battling to stay up. Based on the way Antonio ran us ragged in our home game, best I could hope for was a draw

    Agreed. This one is passing Smallbone by, sadly.

    Get a goal and the mood will change again. So frustrating to concede like that! COYRs.

    Yep still very much in it.

    West Ham cannot help but concede and we always play better second half.

    Worst performance since we last played them probably TBH...need an injection of energy from somewhere.

    One positive is that we're still in the game. Maybe the only positive.

    I wouldn't have minded Haller scoring that if Alex had at least punched him in the face after the ball went. But he did nothing. Absolutely nothing. FFS.

    Oh and that was crap from Macca just to appease the ones who say he never gets criticised.

    Whereas last week it made complete sense to play him, today made complete sense to leave him out.

    Either Romeu, or JWP (given we have 2 RBs on the bench?) should be in central midfield

    Right, I'm back to default settings.
    **** being positive. What a mess. How there's only one goal in this shows how crap WH are.
