Pointless blaming the manager. How many have to pass through? Koeman Allardyce Silva Ancelotti Benitez.

They can’t all be wrong. These players are not very good. No conviction, no confidence on the ball. They literally came out and for ten minutes couldn’t make a simple five yard pass. Doucoure couldn’t control the ball and he’s one of our supposed best players. As a bell weather for where we are, Demarai Gray looks one of our best players by a mile and he’s a player that Leicester and Leverkusen two upper mid table sides decided they didn’t really need. Townsend who is also good for us sometimes didn’t make the Palace team.

It’s a bad group that needs shifting out. There’s no leadership in defence when Mina doesn’t play. The midfield two are all hustle but not much technique or creativity. The attack is almost non existent without DCL and Richarlison (who also both have their limitations). There’s zero off the bench. West Ham are a mid table team and have a far far better squad than us with players sat on their bench who would have walked into our side today.

We need to stop blaming the manager. It’s years of horrendous recruitment, mixed with awful player fitness and conditioning which is effectively killing every manager we get through the door. None have a chance.
 

Everyone deserves criticism today. The team selection was rubbish. The tactics were negative. The lack of subs was baffling. The set pieces were appalling. The team was lethargic. There was zero quality. We couldn't pass the ball properly. We bottled it.
 
West Ham are only dangerous on corners. Giving away cheap corners like the clown in goal did is mental.
That's not true. They are good from corners but also from open play. We did well defensively for most of the game, but we didn't offer too much going forward which wasn't a huge surprise.

Not sure what options Benitez had in terms of team selection?
 
Rafffa to blame, he should’ve played Gordon not the iwob, and the young striker Dobbin not the already proven terrible Rondon. Shocking we have dropped points to such a poor team in West Ham.
