Match Thread West Ham United v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Glad for Seamus, as the only one of the old guard out there...nice to get one over on your old gaffer.

all geniuses who were predicting big defeat to the everton i am giving u 10 minutes to claim ur filth comments before i vault. well done mr ancelotti u r the best.

"Whimper", didn't claim it Snides but I definitely thought it does that count mate. lol

 

[Sarnia Kevin]

I could have voted Allan or Godfrey, but had to go for Seamus. For an OAP he put it one hell of a shift today. Still running and tackling after 90 minutes, immense.

 

[Seathestars]

2-0 to Moyes.

lol Are you gutted Mush

 

[TheBigIguana]

11th away win of the season, our 5th in the Capital alone, only Chelsea out of the 6 London teams have beaten us down there this season

38 neutral games this season. Just kind of tired of listening to the announcers every week go on about home and away form without mentioning the giant elephant of no fans for any of it

 

[Amw79]

Very much enjoyed Coleman's "I am all over you like a rash here mate" continual pressure on Lingard at the end there.

Yep, that just tipped me to vote him MOTM ahead of Allan.

 

[Jim Hopper]

Typical Everton.

Im glad we avenged that defeat at Goodison earlier in the season to them, proper undeserving win for them, was hard to take. Don’t think could have handled Moyes doing the double over us very well.

Picked Seamus for MOM.

Please let us send West Ham/Moyes or Liverpool into the Europa Conference League while taking their Europa League spot.

That said West Ham have three gimme games, so they'd have to basically blow it. Liverpool games are a similar difficulty to us, so we're probably going to get the same points.

Damn Everton for making me think we can get Europa League.

 

[Runub]

Eleven away wins!!! Usually it would take 3 or 4 seasons to accumulate eleven away wins. Such a shame the home form is so poor

 

[RomanReigns]

don't understand why we don't see more goals like the one we scored today

 

[deipnosophist]

I must confess to having stunted optimism leading into the game. Leeds winning didn’t help matters, but it was rumours around our staging a Yuletide panto production of The Mikado which nailed on my gloom.
I am very pleased to say my misgivings were misplaced. Gilbert and Sullivan are ok in my book!!

 

[N.S.N.O.]

Great to win. Richy and Dom need to sort out whatever issue they have. At least three times one could have played the other in and refused to pass.

Hard earned victory, but what's going on between Dom and Ritchie ? Three or four times up front together, one pass to put each other through and it doesn't happen, they either lose it or try a daft pass to someone else, have they fell out ?

They celebrated the goal together just fine....no issues there....richie needs to work on making smarter runs to make a pass to him easier, didn't think he did that today

 

[TyphooToffee]

I'd like to see Josh King start ahead of Richarlison against Villa. He doesn't fall over every five minutes and he's more likely to pass the ball when someone else is in a better position to score

 

[Sharpattack]

Great result. But when you see what subs came on you really see there’s no depth to this squad at all.

 

[Barnfred 55]

The pressure of the banners with fans on them at Goodison is too much for the players to deal with.

Who knows what it is. But our home form needs sorting.

Can't be many teams with a better away record than us this season.
