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

Weird how we win away but not at home, it's just an empty stadium either way

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 ?

I don't think they've fallen out, they're both just typical of most modern day front players, where it's all about them and their goals and to hell with who's in the best position. Most forwards are way too selfish these days and it reflects the selfishness which pervades football.

Good Backs to the wall win, not great for the heart though. Can Sky do one with the bias, our goal was a quality pass and finish, but the lack of credit given to us made my blood boil. West Ham below par ??? Are they Barcelona now ? Anyway well in Blues.

Not according to BBC live text, though I didn't see the game.

apparently they initially counted bowen's chance on target then chalked it off for some reason

 

[Andy Gray Diving Headers]

Good to see DCL take his goal well. This isn't meant to be a sarcastic comment but he has missed a few in the previous weeks.

 

[Chewbacca]

All about tempo. We looked arsed today. It makes such a difference.

 

[the golden visionary]

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

Midfielders are cowards

 

[ForestBlue]

Allen for me. Set the tone for a good performance all around

 

[MisterJ]

I do like our Dom, he always interviews well and now he throws in the MOTM bomb

 

[jaycee]

Never going to be described as a classic,thought the tactics were very good,restricting them to two chances,Godfrey,Allan,Davies and Keane all played well MOTM Coleman

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

I think Moyes lost this one by forgetting that he was Moyes managing West Ham when he turned in the team sheet.

A cagier affair might have gone his way. Instead, we sent out a lineup that let them have all the sterile possession they wanted while taking most of the chances.

Does what he always does, just never prepared for the gun fight. Proper grind that match not seen us organised like that for years...

 

[hallamblue]

I think 2 draws would have been fair for our 2 games against West Ham this season, so a 1-0 win each is fair enough.

 

[MikeH72]

Does Souness watch us ever?

 

[blueblueskies]

Both of the commentators on Sky were desperate for West Ham to score. It was embarrassing

 

[PhilipK]

Coleman, Godfrey, Allan, Davis and Digne were all immense and the others not far behind. Well done lads!
