That started from a pathetic corner Sugawara gave away.

Juric livid about Sugawara giving that away, survived the initial corner but lost the first ball that came back in and didn’t defend the second one. 

[Turkish]

FFS sloppy there 3 stood around and Bowen nips in to score 

[Sheaf Saint]

Damnit. Gonna rue those missed chances aren't we.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Bah!

Our bench werent' happy with the corner. They got a lot of unchallenged balls there to finally get that in.

[adrian lord]

Ramsdale not covering himself in glory today.

THB can’t be letting him win that header so easily, very poor.

Agreed, really weak.

Sugawara is pretty shit to be fair

amazed how some built him up a bit when he signed

[Saint_clark]

Can we get Archer on for Armstrong please and see Onuachu holding it up for someone that can actually finish. 

[Chez]

THB must win the header but is too lightweight.

 

[Maggie May]

We’re not good enough.

Fucking Sugawara

Expand  

Not just him, although it was poor. THB should win the second ball from the cross that came back in and failure to do so costs a goal.

THB very disappointing this season. 

[Saint NL]

Aribo and Bree on.

 

[Saint_clark]

"No advantage gained", they played the pass and f*cked it up, it's advantage not a double chance.

Definitely not good enough to stay up but we can definitely build for next season

I wouldn’t blame him for that as such, we had more than enough chances to clear it. I think there’s a reason Manning has been preferred to Suga recently and he’s showed why again with that corner. He has far too many lapses in concentration to be a reliable PL defender.

[Saint_clark]

What an awful attempt from Armstrong. Get him off ffs.

[Mr X]

AA needs binning

Expand  

Signed for lower Champ/League 1 money so needs development time and minutes. There’s a decent player in there, can cross the ball very well but defensively lax. Will be interesting to see him in a few weeks under a different and vastly superior manager than the village idiot he signed for who couldn’t organise Netley Central.

[adrian lord]

What was that Armstrong?

[Edmonton Saint]

My God Armstrong is a joke of a footballer.

It’s like they cannot engage their brain when playing, the ball was spinning so had to played differently, but no he didn’t account for it so it went out of play. 

[SambaMaverick]

Subs painfully fucking obvious Ivan come on mate don't spoil it

Archer time.

Just not up to it at this level sadly 

[Harry_SFC]

Armstrong is such a poor player. Not sure I've seen someone as out of his depth at this level as him.

No chance, Mr X.

[Saint_clark]

No contact on the ball, contact on Onuachu...no penalty. 

[BotleySaint]

Can't see us scoring. Too many wasted changes. West Ham starting to improve. We're run out of puff.

[Saint NL]

Can we see that penalty shout again?

Last season he scored for fun. Go up and he has wilted.

Needed a result today to have any glimmer of hope

Expand  

"No clear action by the defender to initiate the trip", I swear they come out with new bollocks every game to justify their dodgy decisions.

[BotleySaint]

Did VAR even review?

[Suhari]

Unlucky.

Excellent from KWP.

[adrian lord]

Damn

[Sheaf Saint]

Nice move. Unlucky Fernandes.

[OttawaSaint]

Another shocking miss.

Never a penalty it was good defending 

Edited 26 December, 2024 by Turkish

[Viking Saint]

Close from Fernandes

[Challenger]

We now have a craftsman that knows how to get the best from his tools. Unfortunately the tools are still blunt.

[Saint_clark]

Fernandes needs to be burying that. 

[Saint NL]

That would have been a sensational equaliser 

[Suhari]

Dibling and Sully coming on.

TBF that is well established. 

[BotleySaint]

KWP could surely get into any team in the world. Such a talented player. Way too good for us.

[Sheaf Saint]

Dibling and Sulemana coming on.

[Mr X]

We've been better today but same problems exist we make defensive errors and couldn't score in a brothel it will take time to repair the damage of Martin!

Calm down.

[OttawaSaint]

We just don't seem to know how to finish. Should be home and dry but we're going to let a very poor WHU off the hook. 

[Saint NL]

Christ, should be 0-2
