Feel for the keeper tbh. He’s jumped for the ball already, can’t really do much there. It’s probs a pen, as he punched him in the face. But it’s well unlucky

Think this result might be the one that fully cuts the bottom 3 adrift - think Dyche* has enough to get forest out of the mire and I can't imagine West Ham catching Leeds unless they implode

I'm not sure if Nuno survives that loss. Just one point taken from a set of four very promising fixtures. And now a mini-break (from league action) gives them scope to make a change.
Maybe JWP will have a future at West Ham after all.
KWP could be on for three PL relegations in four seasons.

Only came back up around covid didn't they? Seem to recall them beating Brentford at an empty Wembley.
Of course. Forgot about City.
They'll never realistically go down mind so Palace is the interesting one (to me anyway).
Let's see what happens if United prise Glasner away end of this season. If not them, suspect someone will.
Yeah I can see them struggling when he leaves too. They've had a few occasions when they started to look a bit dodgy but always had either a superstar or a solid manager appointment.
I don't see any promoted sides doing particularly well next season mind.
Like I said, a functional decent player but we didn't let some world beater go. If we signed him back at the start of last season would there have been much fanfare for example?
I'd have been very happy with Reed last season because he is a PL quality player and we had very few of those 
With both him and Targett they have proven now they are toward the end of their careers that they have been solid enough mid table players in the PL. Which when we sold them we were as a club, maybe with higher aspirations. They wanted to play more regularly when they left and we couldn’t give that to them at the time. Sure some of the replacements we signed weren’t as good but that’s the way the cookie crumbles. I’m sure at the time selling Reed and bringing in Lemina seemed like a no brainer from a talent perspective, but yeah hindsight is a wonderful thing
Who knows what would have happened if they’d stayed, maybe they wouldn’t have got as much playing time as they did after leaving and not developed into the players they became. It’s a pointless conversation really as there are too many what ifs to take into account

Definitely from me there would have been!
He’s about five times the player Downes is.
