Finally paqueta gets the yellow he's been begging for all game

They all are tbf, really rattled West Ham here, they can't cope at all.

Isaaaaak you fucking beauty

Yessssss!!!!!!!!

Much brighter this half, quicker and with purpose, whatever Howe said to them has worked

Gane on bitches

VAR tried everything then

Finally, totally deserved

Isaaaakkk

Yessss!!!!

Peach of a cross by Almiron, no one to meet it. Finally a shot on goal!

Can we all chip in and get Almiron a right leg for Christmas please?

How was that a foul by Isak??

Thought he'd make a change at half time tbf, this hasn't worked so far.

Yeah we've got around their box a few times with ease but then drawn blank, Isak skipping down the left got to the left side of the box and no one in support, ended up having to turn back on himself 3 or 4 times to try and keep the ball. They will and have left gaps when they commit to the counter but without Gordon we've had no outlet and our slow recovery has given them far too much time to reset the block. Wondering if Murphy might be the better idea.

Big half time decisions by Howe needed here

West Ham heat map first half

West Ham players good at that kicking the ball past us and running into our players for a cheap foul

We're playing the better football, West Ham are just defending deep, nicking the ball and kick/rushing us. But it's no good if we can't make anything from it.

Finally finds a yellow for West Ham

Stupid by Miggy but Paqueta should have had a yellow if Brunos was a yellow

I'd seriously consider Wilson for Anderson, Anderson not up to speed today and Isak too isolated, would be better with him on the left and Wilson leading the line.

West Ham look a lot sharper than us here, really slow and sloppy by us so far, need to wake up

Happy to sit deep here and let us have possession to the half way line, gonna be a long afternoon unless someone comes up with something special here.

What the hell was Pope thinking there?
