and Hause should have been sent off too

[Damo70]

Joke of a red card that, Konsa barely touched Bowen.

Hause probably could've gone instead.

Have to get Mings on now....

Game over.

I have to admit I thought the ref could have sent both Konsa and Hause off. That was the outcome I was half expecting.

Young should have been taken off.

He should never have come on.

Bizarre decision to take Buendia off instead of Young.

They're looking as ill disciplined as the Arsenal game, I thought we'd get one sent off in that. It's going to happen when you're shape is all over the shop, you're frustrated and losing the battles. We've lost two coaches and our captain in the summer and we've replaced them with a Championship player and a a bloke who's set piece coaching seems to be stealing Tony Pulis' 15 year old tactics.

It's a shit show, we've lost a lot of guile and brains behind the scenes and now were left with Smith talking bollocks about reactions and not getting the rub of the green.

Really, really poor summers business and a big hole in the identity and leadership of the team. Headless rabble at the moment. Needs changing, starting with a manager with a bit more to him.

Bugger, off the bar.

Hause was a red.  Konza wasn’t.

In circumstances I actually think change makes sense.

Front two of Bailey an Ollie and Young can tuck in on the left.

Harsh on Buendia.

[ez]

Off the crossbar

[SamTheMouse]

Regardless of what the fans think, it looks to me as if Smith's losing the players.

Anywhere else on the pitch thats not even a foul

For me hause was more of a red. But u cant give konsa a red if your penalising hause as that happened after the initial foul so konsa card would ahve to be rescinded

[TonyD]

The thing is - West Ham aren’t great. 

[wince]

Fuck off long throws. I could be a better set piece coach.

[Forge10]

This I do agree with, what does it say about our squad if that’s the best option?
