Back 4 and even Lloris occasionally have looked nervy and that uncertainty, almost lack of sharpness even, seems to be spreading to the rest of the team. West Ham are playing us well, congesting the midfield heavily, but we're contributing to it by not moving the ball quite as quickly and with the same quality as we usually do. I'd have Eriksen and Chadli for Dembele and Lamela. Dembele isn't reaching the relative heights he hit in the last couple of games and Lamela isn't doing much at all really. Eriksen needs no justification and Chadli is rested and brings pace and physicality. The whole team needs to step it up a gear too though, we look worryingly off the pace.
That's my worry, if they score again it's going to be so hard to come back from. I can only remember one decent chance in the whole of the first half.
This is so shockingly bad it's unreal...we are second best everywhere on the pitch. Why is lamela still on the pitch. It has been an embarrassing performance from him
That's awful defending. Every time they play a ball over the top into the wide areas it's caused us problems. Can't see us getting anything out of this now. Really poor performance.
Another **** up by Rose!! Appealing for offside and forgetting the player he's meant to be marking. Shambles!
LOLdado on! And I thought it couldn't get any worse! We are, yet again, the laughingstock of the Prem!
I'm tottaly baffled here... Lamela's been a passenger yet stays on whilst Townsend goes off for Soldado when this game was crying out for Chadli. Is the Argentine untouchable or something?
