Danny Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 I remember after we beat Arsenal I said when they get a fit first eleven without any injuries they will provide some real problems. Arsenal have been excellent first half, they really are just a few players off of a consistent challenge for top 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 We've been the better team. Should be ahead really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waylander Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Saw the last 15 mins, Arsenal on top borderline penalty decisions for me though ref not interested. Partey catches Antonio around the face when the latter challenges with a rugby challenge, ref rightly for me gives it to Arsenal. Tierney unlucky with his late strike and Martinelli probably should have scored. WHU should be better in the 2nd though Dawson or another might gift the gunners a penalty.

Guest Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 We've been good tonight. We have looked like a top 4 side. Still dont think we will finish in the top 4 but it does look like we have improved at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 That’s a fucking joke of a decision. He’s off for that?! Wanker of a referee. Fabianski saves it. Justice done in a way. Coufal still off the pitch undeservingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 I don’t mind refs giving cards to players for giving them shit, players need to learn respect. But it should never have been called as a foul, laces in the follow through is just not a foul at all if he got the ball first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 We had a penalty but missed it. Penalty was a bit harsh. He got the ball. Probably if the referee hadn't given it they wouldn't have changed it.But quite often penalties are given even if they get the ball if they get a lot of the player as well. Second yellow seems harsh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite often penalties are given for tackles like that. Its harsh though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Commentary on about it not being a “clear and obvious” error from the ref so it won’t be overturned. Sorry, but the fact he clearly and obviously won the ball first should absolutely matter. Absolute hate how VAR is being used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its harsh though They’re given for wrecklessness. If that’s wreckless he has to send Coufal off, if it’s not wreckless he doesn’t blow the whistle. Dangerous territory when a non-wreckless tackle that makes contact after winning the ball is called as a foul and allowed to remain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a yellow which he was given. It use to be but it changed when they decided not to send players of and give a penalty unless they foul an attacker who is clean through on goal. I think that's right anyway. To be honest west ham have played better since then red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan Posted December 15, 2021 Author Administrator Share Posted December 15, 2021 2-0 Smith Rowe seals the win. Allowed to run, not closed down and scores from just outside the edge of the box. West Ham hitting some poor form now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waylander Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 I was impressed by Rice until the 2nd goal showed a lot of effort to try and get back in the game though not enough today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6666 Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Good performance and deserved win. Probably should've scored a couple more. Man Utd do have a game in hand and Tottenham have three (which is crazy) so we still need to catch up but overall we're doing okay. Hoping Lacazette signs a new contract. Links up with the attackers behind him very well and who knows who else we'll have with Aubameyang probably moving on and Nketiah's contract running out. Wondering if we'll see Martinelli upfront with ESR, Odegaard, and Saka behind him anytime in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 The problem for West Ham has always been strength in depth. 1 win in 6 now, I think they are just starting to look a little bit leggy, they could do with a little breather or the side being freshened up a bit. They kind of need that fresh injection that Lingard gave them last January don't they, be interesting to see if they go there again. Antonio desperately needs a goal, Benrahma isn't consistent, and there is an over reliance to a degree on Bowen now as the form player for them. Soucek hasn't been on a mad one either.
