Sammy, Vuckic, Marveaux, Cabaye, Colo  :thdn:

 

???

 

They played s*** eh?

 

I clicked the wrong thump, the one who goes down.

My intentions was clearly to click the one who pointed up.

I have edited it now, so it is more correct.

 

I will click more carefully on my mouse from now on, and watch what way the thump points.

 

Have a good night everyone.

 

 

^ he mad

 

:lol:

Incredibly happy. The Dynasty shall prosper  :aww:

 

Has to be said though, Ba's first 2 outings have been horrible.

 

Can't imagine what's up with Ba.

 

Looked a dynamic player for West Ham last season.

 

Looks totally unprepared for the start of this season.

 

He started off well enough, but completely lost it soon after.

 

He needs time, he seems like he could be a handful if he has his legs under him.

 

That's really what it looks like. Like he doesn't have his legs under him.

 

Pre-season really must have been a big fat joke. Fitness still looks like it hasn't come together yet.

 

None of the players in general have really looked fit and rearing to go, and we start games off very slowly.

Best is shit, he can fuck off. Timmy looked immense, but his kicking is quite erratic. Loven tries his heart out, but is simply not good enough. Thought marvelous Marv did quite well. Cabaye is fit as fuck, had a decent game too. Yeah Sammy should just get #9 now really.

Best was hardly shit. Wasn't great but wasn't shit either.

Alright, I may be over reacting a bit with all of that post, but Best is quite poor let's be honest.

Now that this is over I think it wiser to judge us on result rather than performance. We were on the proverbial "hiding to nothing" and I'm sure that we won't be televised next round, unless we play a "big club".

i would stick sameobi on the bench agenst fulham like, definately has something worth using as an impact sub...

 

He'd have made the bench anyway.

Oh my God. Can't believe some of the posts on here. Lovenkrands tried his heart out, still to make your mind up about Best, Ba needs kick up the arse but not so soon as to destroy him.

These three along with Ameobi are a bloody joke. How come we end up with all four. It's not one new striker we need . We need a clearout of the dross we're holding onto and start a fresh.

Combine the best bits of all four and we still wouldn't have a striker worth shouting about.

Krul 9 - Living up to his potential

 

Simpson 4 - Rubbish, two poor games on the bounce

Colo 6 - Though he struggled in parts, got better as the game went on

Wlliamson 6 - solid but got caught out a couple of times

Taylor 6 - Alright, class free kick

 

Lovenkrands N/A - Who? I wasn't aware he was on the pitch

Cabaye 7 - He's mint

Gosling 5 - A mixed bag consisting of averagness and God awful play

Marveaux 7 - Looks promising, tricky first half, sat deep and distributed well second

 

Ba 5 - Linked up alright but was let down by a poor touch and positioning

Best 6 - Tried hard but crap for the most part

 

Taylor 7 - I'm a critic but looked decent again when he came on

Vuckic 7 - Tidy

Ameobi 8 - Very direct, awesome goal

Made hard work of it (I listened to most of the 2nd half and watched ET when I got back in from work) Bemused as to why we start games so slowly - complacency? I hear Ba was woeful - attitude problem perhaps?

 

On the plus side - saw some magnificent saves from Krul (the one from the deflection was world class!) and what a superb cameo and goal from Sammy. Looks like we could have a player on our hands here - Ashley must have the £££ signs in his eyes already. Definitely going to be getting a first team look-in soon, especially if the likes of Ba and Lovenkrands don't perform.

Krul-9. Excellent.

Simpson- 4. The guy has begun to annoy me.

Williamson- 5. Okay.

Coloccini-6. Better.

Raylor-6. Nice free kick.

Lovenkrands-3. No footballing ability.

Cabaye-6. Tidy. Gets stuck in too.

Gosling- 5. Some good, some bad.

Marveaux-7. Nice debut. Quick and direct.

Ba- 4. Clumsy and slow.

Best- 5. Better than our other forwards.

 

Saylor- 7. Very competent.

Sameobi-8. Messi esque.

Vuckic- 6.5. Decent.

Krul 9 - Fucking class.

Simpson 5 - Poor.

Williamson 5 - Poor game before injured.

Coloccini 8 - Another top display.

R.Taylor 7 - Great free kick, decent game aside from that.

Lovenkrands 3 - Absolutely dire.

Gosling 5 - Very unimpressive.

Cabaye 8 - Superb throughout, looks miles ahead of the rest of the team.

Marveaux 6 - Showed flashes of quality.

Ba 4 - Needs time I think but looks off the pace at the minute.

Best 6.5 - Decent game but should have scored, and would have done if not for that shocking offside decision.

 

Subs

 

S.Taylor 7 - So much better than Williamson.

Vuckic 6.5 - Offered more in terms of creativity than Gosling.

Sammy 7.5 - Superb, caused all sorts of problems down the flanks and of course a brilliant goal.

Krul 8.5 - really looks to be maturing into a very good keeper. He basically rescued the defence.

Simpson 4 - looked like a frightened rabbit every time the ball went near him.

R Taylor 4 - great free kick but very dodgy defensively

Colo 5.5 - it just wasnt his type of game, and he looked uncomfortable.

S Taylor 7 - provided some much needed physical presence.

Marveaux 6 - looked promising. His team mates need to get used to him and vice versa.

Cabaye 7.5 - This lad has a great engine and can really pick a pass.

Gosling 5.5 - Struggled to find a role. Needs more match time.

Lovenkrands 4 - Didn't get involved enough. Easy to forget he was on the pitch.

Ba 4 - not found his feet yet.

Best 6 - Good in the air and battled hard. Ponderous at times, but that's not his fault.

 

Ameobi 7.5 - Eager to get involved, tricky, a breath of fresh air when we really needed it.

Vukcic 6 - classy but a bit naive at times. Still doesn't look quite ready.

 

We improved steadily, but there still didn't seem to be a coherent strategy. We hit a lot of long balls to make use of Best, but Cabaye and Marveaux are more suited to keeping the ball on the deck. If we're a Premiership team, why not play Premiership football?
