It Could Get A Bit Messi In Here - The Football Thread.

When you know a hammering is due and coming and then I happens it still feels every bit as bad as when it’s a surprise.

Maguire, Evans and Onana did very little wrong. The midfield was an utter disgrace and ten Haag was atrocious, every substitution made us worse. That’s been coming for weeks but you’d hope a derby would at least bring something more to the game. Embarrassing.

At some point, he needs to start a game with Rashford on the bench. A front three of Garnacho-Hojlund-Antony seems like it could be much more exciting. And why do you spend $60M on Mount, give him #7, and bench him?

Højland worries me. He’s too young and too rough around the edges to have this much pressure on him as the main centre forward. He should he in and out the team. But there is no one else.

It’s a mess of an unbalanced squad in a mess of football club owned by arseholes who I don’t have the words for how much ill I wish on them.

Also if Antony is the answer then you’ve got to wonder what the question is. He’s a cretin.

Caught up on the Joe mac commentary- entertaining as ever - how poor were West Ham yesterday! And that City penalty was very unfair imo

I thinks Everton called their bluff. West Ham’s best results have been against teams that open up and try and play football against them. They’re electric on the break. Sit in and deny them that space in behind and they really do struggle to create anything.

The penalty was soft but then we were shit too, hamstrung by the manager deciding to unbalance the team with a crazy half time substitution.

There’s quality in that squad but it is so so unbalanced. Overloaded in some areas and paper thin in others.

I’m guessing following Europe there were so many PL teams playing Sunday so they couldn’t reasonably expected to face a 2 day turn around.

lame! London Stadium and Stamford Bridge hosting tomorrow as well as Old Trafford and Goodison! They could've let Arsenal play West Ham today (i get off early today, that's why I'm bitching!)

I’m just sad neither game today is on tele. That income boost would mean a lot in leagues one and two.
