  1. New manager bounce doesn’t exist. Include the games from match day 12 onwards and we are 10th in that table.
  2. Smith got sacked because he only had 11 wins in 35 league games in 2021.
  3. We’d be in a relegation battle. He proved last season that he couldn’t do it without Jack. And that was the same this season, and we wouldn’t have Coutinho if Smith was still here.
  4. Klopp won several trophies with Dortmund and got to a CL final.
  5. First half we were excellent (aside from the mistake that led to the goal). Second half was a disaster. If we had Kane and Son instead of Watkins and Ings, we’d have been 4-1 up at half time, that’s the difference.
  6. I think it’s obvious now he benefited massively linking up with Grealish last season, same as Targett. He looks a shadow of the player of last season.
  7. He’d definitely have put away at least two of them them chances we had today.
  8. But pointless picking a random match day just to make the table look worse. Our form Since SG took over has us slap bang in the middle.
  9. Strikers couldn’t hit a barn door, might as well just play without and stick Bailey and Buendia on the wings.
  10. Too many sentimental players from the Smith days. They were good enough to get promoted, and consolidate in the league. But if we have any realistic ambition of cracking Europe, massive changes needed.
  11. How many would get into Spurs team? Not many I’d have thought.
  12. Sell Ings and Watkins, Archer and Davis to lead the line next season.
  13. He might not be a 20+ goal a season striker, but that doesn't mean he can't be an asset to us. Look at Michail Antonio, he's not gonna break any goal scoring records, but he's quite an important player for West Ham.
  14. How do you know? He has never really got a fair run of games with us. He's doing pretty well in the Championship.
  15. Mainly Archer, but Barry and Young as well. The problem is we (mostly) play with 1 striker, and Watkins and Ings are always going to be ahead of Davis. Unless we consistently play with 2 strikers, he won't get playing much. Saying that 5 subs next season, so you never know.
  16. He's at the age now where he should be given a chance or sold, I suspect it will be the latter due to the forwards coming through that are younger than him.
  17. Liverpool do it, they play with 3 in midfield and cover TAA and Robertson when they go forward. With the right players the system can work and work well, we just don't have the players at the minute.
  18. Reported by TalkSh**e, i'd take it with a massive pinch of salt. As you say, we don't play with wingers, we also play Leicester shortly, so most likely he was checking them out ahead of that match.
  19. This would certainly get u into top half comfortably.
  20. Bielsa is a bit mad though, so not surprising. Very rare it happens, most managers will usually wait to half time.
  21. He could play as the center AM with Coutinho on left.
