West Ham United 1 - 2 Newcastle United - 23/10/10 - post match reaction from p20


Recommended Posts

Man we reaaaally needed that.

 

They were unbelievably poor in the second half although we played it around nicely and scored a cracking winner. Delighted with that, theres now a curry and a few bottles of Tyskie with my name on them.

Overriding feeling right now? Danny Simpson is the best right back in the world.

 

Thought he did alright as it happens. Rose-tinted specs because Perch is awful but apart from clearly being unfit (he's quicker than this) he played reasonably well IMO.

Full marks to CH - made adjustments and the second half was the most one sided half of football I have seen for a long time - West ham were trounced and its easy to say they are crap without giving us the correct amount of praise

Thought it was a very professional job from us in the last 20 minutes or so.  We kept a lot of posession and knocked it around nicely without resorting to the long-ball that often.  Boring as fuck in the end but still very glad we got 3 points.

indeed. totally sorted out the right hand side problem - dont recall noticing obinna 2nd half, while 1st half he almost single handidly ripped us open. great job to react to that. the one goal difference 2nd half flattered west ham if anything ,truly horrible.

Well, I only saw the second half but that was fucking excellent. Should have had another couple, really, and it was a completely dominant performance. Tioté is godlike sometimes. I love those sneaky little turns he does to get clear of someone and move the ball forward. Didn't see anyone put in a bad shift though and that was a real team performance.  :clap:

A good win, done well in the 2nd half (I was at work during the 1st half), kept possession but didn't really create too many clear cut chances. 3 points against a team that will be down there at the end of the season, and away from home. Job done, can't ask for much more than that, other than creating some more chances.

 

Toite seemed to be excellent in the 2nd half, went in for every ball, tried to get forward aswell, at one point I was wondering if he was trying to break the keepy up record though.
