Only his first for the season isn't it?

(Could be second)

2nd to my recollection.

Thought it could be but for the life of me I can't remember the first one.

Pretty sure it's just one so far.

 

[Royal Blue Jersey]

Pienaar and Baines boss, Stones good, Distin outstanding, Deulofeu hyper tosh.

Got it done in the end, didn't we.

Agreed. Almost. Distin made some great interceptions but terrible on the ball and almost put us in danger a few times

Don't think Seamus has been firing on all cylinders recently tbh. Think he's tired? Another victim of "too much expectation" perhaps?

...difficult for anybody to maintain top performances over the course of a season, especially in this league. Players will play with knocks etc and games come thick and fast. Need to accept ups and downs from a player and team perspective.

2nd to my recollection.

Fantasy Premier League says he got one at home to Norwich.

Fantasy being the key word there.

Unless he won the free kick that Mirallas scored, but surely that doesn't count as an assist?

 

[Royal Blue Jersey]

Pienaar did my head in way way more mate.

For example.

And someone told me Osman was playing. I didn't notice.

Strange. He was boss first half. Easily best player

lol good point well made. was trying to remember the goal but was thinking open play. Must have won the free kick. so first of the season then

Not for me he wasn't.

 

[royalblue66]

There are some awful ref's in the prem and today I saw perhaps one of the worst.

 

[Woolly Blue]

...we won. All games are a challenge, home and away. Tick this one off and move on. Lots of debate, lots of inquisition, but we were miles better than a team who are on a bit of a run.

Tell ya what, I'd rather gouge my eyeballs out then smash 'em with a lump hammer than have to watch a Sam Allardyce team every week

You've both summed it up nicely. It's hard to believe West Ham had won four on the trot. They came for a point, nearly got away with it and are a horrible Allardyce outfit. We played some decent stuff at times but lacked guile so it's a great result and was effectively our game in hand on MoyesUtd.

Happy Days.

Osman or Pienaar?

I thought both had good games. Couldn't complain with subbing Ossie off for a striker though.

McCarthy, however, stole the show for me. Superb player.

 

[Woolly Blue]

Li Tie was a bit crap though wasn't he?

He had a decent first season and then kept getting injured. He never properly recovered from a broken leg. If you'd seen him play regularly I reckon you'd have rated him. Similar in some ways to McCarthy.

Bad today but West Ham have been on a great run while we have been on a bad one, no matter how hard on the eye that was today we kept a clean sheet and won, Lukaku got his first for a while, and 3 points. Im happy, off to town for a curry looking forward to next week now
