Years catching up with him now. Wants too long on the ball and slows attacks down. Caused Tarkowski’s yellow with a dreadful pass, and sent a few other easy ones astray.

I think Gana’s bread and butter for years was the tackle and then quick reads to push ahead. Now if he misses the tackle, he’s slower to drop back. Then it falls to Tarkowski. I’m glad we have him. I rate him. I just hope players like Rohl have a break out year and show us a glimpse of life after Gana.
I just loved his telepathic passes tonight - as if the player he was passing to - had any idea it was coming their way .... a poor game for him Garner a one man midfield ....
He was dreadful tonight.
Still miles ahead of the options on the bench.
I hope Rohl get fit and turns out quality + want to see what Garner and KDH could do as a midfield 2 moving forward or with Rohl rotating.
But as things stand, we look far worse when he doesn't play

The midfield 3 wasnt the problem tonight...
I think people are being a little harsh on him personally. He didn’t have a good game don’t get me wrong, but he had a lot of the ball. He’s not a playmaker so he will make errors when he’s on the ball as much as he was tonight, that’s a tactical issue more than an individual one.
It was it tired gaps galore - the new West Ham manager sensed it ....

Could drop Gana, have Garner holding, KDH as 8 and then Charly as the no. 10.

Felt he should have been subbed today, he was struggling to complete a pass and wasn't as dominant in winning the ball back as usual. Would have dropped KDH deeper and brought on Alcaraz.

He made far too many sloppy passes last night. Even really easy ones were so called 'hospital passes'.
I don’t disagree, but he made too many passes in general that’s my point. Certainly over the first 60/70 minutes I would say he had far more of the ball than any of our other players and that isn’t a good thing. He’s not a good passer of the ball, if you ask him to make 100 passes in a game a fair few of them are going to be sloppy. It’s not a good tactic to have him as the one dictating the play from the middle and he was last night.
