    Maybe the Board are playing their cards close to their chest because the new manager is a done deal? Who knows?

    I wonder what Vetch thinks of all the u-turns being made on here regarding Guidolin. <laugh> It was only 2 games ago that he was getting a slating for a 4-0 thrashing at Leicester.

    The big plus for me of late is it isn't just one or two guys scoring . 6 different scorers from our last 8 goals ...it's what has been missing all season , multi scorers...good sign imo

    I still feel we were slightly fortunate at West Ham though. Yes we create plenty of chances and took them very well, but they also created several very good scoring opportunities. Going forward we were excellent, but defensively we still look a bit weak for my liking.
    The result was better than the performance.

    I have to disagree , they had two strong periods in the game where they could have taken better options in their attack but didn't either by choice or because the defence and notably Fab did his job admirably which not many have commented on and diid a sterling job in commanding his area , their goal took 4 attempts to go in after two 1st class saves from him .We broke with pace and were dominant all over the pitch , considering the amount of changes and who was playing in the defence imo it was a solid defensive performance .

    I agree they had 2 or 3 good chances but so did we on top of our 4 goals so it could have ended 6-2

    Was nice to see Barrow switching sides here and there with Routledge , it's a nice option during a game . I think Routledge and Naughton play well together , but don't get a chance to . The Ki to Naughton to Routledge for the goal was pretty nice .
    Cork the Jack is the player who excites me the most going into next season , a gem about to be polished IMO. His contribution seems to grow with every game , his goal was Goal of the Season for me
    Just wanted to say what a breakthrough and soothing game this was. Arsenal , Chelsea , Liverpool and now West Ham ... beaten. Would the Man City game be a great one to add to the list .
