Bournemouth vs WHUFC -- January 19th, 2019

53 minutes gone... bring on some subs for fupp's sake before this gets even more embarrassing...

I mean... how do you go from beating Arsenal to getting done by Bournemouth?

so, Callum Wilson has scored 6 goals in his last 6 games against us... we really are the gift that keeps on giving...

West Ham corner ends in a Bournemouth attack - how many times have I typed that sentence?

you could take off anyone except the three at the back and no one would be surprised...

not even replace them... just take them off...

we have to get rid of Carroll, Antonio and noble...

there's only half an hour to go... just bring on three new players... start from scratch and hope to steal a draw...

so we're down below Leicester... Noble almost gives away a penalty...

no subs even warming up...

why did we even bother coming down here today?

we could have just mailed Bournemouth the three points and saved ourselves the bother...

ooh.. 'ello

Snoddy is putting on something...

thank fupp for that... Carroll is OFF

but so is Nasri...

Nasri has been particularly absent today... but you at least feel he has some skills... Noble is just a donkey... and Antonio has been as poor as any of them today...

but it's Nasri and Carroll off...

Snoddy and Chicharito ON

This tweet pretty much sums up the game: "61: A spell of Hammers pressure creates very little."

Bournemouth hit the post...

finally noble comes off - replaced by diangana...

82 minutes gone... pretty much still piss all from the Cockney boys...

chalk this one up as a pointless and forgettable trip to the seaside...

stone the crows... stretched at the back looking for a chance to score and Bournemouth go and score again...


this is starting to look a lot like the shitty West Ham of the past couple of years (which makes the triumvirate of Carroll/Noble/Antonio all the more depressing and unlikely to yield anything but defeat after defeat)




offer Arnie 36m to stay...

we're fucked it this keeps up

Here's Twitter's reactions:

FT: Bournemouth 2-0 West Ham. Absolutely rubbish result but I kinda had a feeling we'd lose. I just hope we stay in the Top 10

The Hammers got what they deserved today as Simon Hooper blows his full-time whistle to boos from the away section, possibly the worst performance of the season from Pellegrini's men.

Anderson absolutely awful again today. Totally disinterested. Gives the ball away all game. I cannot believe how we paid £42m for him

tactically all wrong today. Carroll has another shocker but also limited service. crossed it more since he has been off the pitch!


Can't say I disagree with any of the above...

I never want to see Carrollosaurus in a West Ham shirt again. Never.

Well deep down we all knew that given the fact that we had the chance to go 7th we would lose as we had done in the past this season. It really does seem that we seem to lack that "Big Club Mentally" that Pellegrini wants to install at the club.

Losing Arnie didn`t help matters and I just hope we bring in one of the strikers we are linked with as otherwise we are in deep trouple in my honest opinon if Arnie does leave this month.

I agree with Blakey (who'd ever think that would happen?) and I agree with Arran that we're in trouble if Arnie does jump ship.

Carroll is not the future and not the answer...

I'd have played a front pairing of Chicharito and Diangana and then brought on Carroll for the last half hour if needed.

Or biggest problems a complete lack of consistency.

Anderson, Antonio - both can be match winners on the day... but both took the day off on saturday, somehting that too many of our players do too often... and results bear that out. That's why I'd go for someone like diangana... the kids have the desire week in and week out - look at Declan as a prime example.
Nothing is guaranteed to work every time, but at least it wouldn't be for want of trying and that's the most disheartening part of what we see these days - especially in recent games.

There's no leader on the pitch when Arnie doesn't play, he not only leads by being loud, he leads by being an example. Noble might shout at people but his playing is poor at best and so even if he's yelling his heart out there's still no end product.
Arnie runs all ends of the pitch, puts in the tackles and scores the goals - we're lacking that kind of leadership from any other player in the team and so when Arnie goes that's one giant hole to try and fill...

Well done for watching this Monkey, it must have been painful.
I expected this from our hero's, typical West Ham and until we move on some will always be the same.

It was shit..............end of
