Long may it continue! It's funny how losing to spurs so late was seen as destroying moral, but West ham will apparently "take heart" from a late defeat to plop. Some folk can't help but to be negative. Edited February 24, 2020 by av1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 (edited) A gallant performance from West Ham but on another night Liverpool could have had 6 or 7. That is now one win in 10 for them and 5 points from a possible 30. Edited February 24, 2020 by markavfc40 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone just takes the most pessimistic option by default, and aren't even consistent in how they apply their pessimism. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Tommo_b Posted February 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 24, 2020 Pretty sure we nearly beat Liverpool... don’t start getting panicky because West Ham put in some effort tonight. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie09 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 still think we’ll finish above Wet Spam if we can play like we did against Spuds and not like we did against Saints. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I thought West Ham played quite well against Liverpool last month as well, but they then went and drew at home with Brighton after leading 3-1, so I wouldn't read too much into today's game. Norwich are like it every match, often play well but somehow still lose more often than not and find themselves bottom of the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most positive thing I can say about Southampton game is about 4 players possibly had their worst game in a Villa shirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there was 100% an element of some players trying to avoid injury and, perhaps, ‘saving themselves’ for the final. So I’m not too worried about the Saints performance. Angry? Yes. But not worried that we’ll put out many more of those types of display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.Bear Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 It's a miracle that we've lost 3 in a row and still sit outside the relegation zone. Just a couple of **** wins and we're sitting pretty. The next two games are savage though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are absolutely the polar opposite to us in terms of fight etc. Replace 'west ham' with aston villa znd that is exactly what west ham fans saud about us after we lost to spurs. We also lost 3-2 with a late goal and a clanger from one of our players. And we wonder why we are called fickle... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea are flakey, and they're coming to VP where we've generally been very competitive. I'm not scared of those types of games. It's the games against the smaller teams away from home with the compact stadiums and fervent fans that we seem to do horribly against. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
