This is exactly how I see it. Hammers are doing a "Villa" on us and hitting us on the counter attack. We lack any inventiveness going forward and on the few occasions we had the ball on the deck we could only pass it sideways. This is perfectly set up for Hammers nicking it. Collins is simply bossing Benteke, Jarvis and Downing are causing lots of problems down our flanks and overall they just seem to "want it" more than us.
Much better needed for second half - but i'm struggling think where/how we can improve. This, I fear will also be the case when Stoke, Norwich and Hull come to VP. We're too easy to play against when we're at home. Lambert needs to think around this.
