Blimey WH are dire. 

They are much worse than I thought they would be so far.

We bring the game to a grinding halt far too often when we have the ball. It allows the opponents to simply reestablish their footing and positioning.

To use a cliché this has got 0-0 written all over it.

You can see the why WH haven’t scored a goal this season. 
Worse than Everton.   

Don’t like these sort of cocky posts, given our current form. Why tempt fate?

Compare and contrast with Brighton

Kamara doing really well today.

Taking to a Marseille season ticket holder yesterday, he reckons Kamara is going to be a world beater. Said he reminded him of Makalele.

Stephen Warnock on 5 live "Villa have no cutting edge. Couthnio has been quiet & Watkins & Ings are feeding on scraps". Who would have guessed?

Haha well! Conversely, we're much better than I thought we would be.

McGinn is probably the least involved captain I've ever seen. Beyond anonymous.



It irrationally fucks me off no end watching him now and those balls over the top are so much hit and hope than the stuff of Cowans.

He's diabolical. So so poor.

So many of our players need to show more desire and get involved. Ollie, Cash, Digne in particular. Ings has worked hard, Kamara is tidy, Luiz is well, average. 

Come on lads

Terrible game, West Ham have been dreadful, even Rice. Don't think any of our players have been particularly poor but far too often when Kamara or Luiz get the ball they have little option but to go back to their CBs. Can't see on TV but I expect the movement of the front 3 isn't good enough.

That shot from McGinn just absolutely sums him up at the moment. Seemed to move in slow motion.
