Like battling each other and laughing about it. Any friend of Bruno is a friend of ours. Shame it would cost 80 odd million to get him out of West Ham.

Schar was clearly feigning injury so - whilst there's a valid reason to be fuming - I just don't. It's the other way round re the Gordon dismissal; there's no really valid reason to be fuming, yet in this case I am, cos it's so fucking innocuous and disproportionate. I accept that it's an offence but for it to be met with the same punishment as a potentially leg-breaking tackle is very hard to stomach. Again no blame on the ref; clearly even Gordon had forgotten he'd been booked too. When you think it's crazy that's its the same punishment as havertz early this season who clearly went in to hurt a player and didn't care about the consequences Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually amazing that for all the minutes he plays and the amount of times he goes down injured I can't recall him missing a game this season. Watch him pull his hammy within 5 mins on Tuesday Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Gordon forgot he got booked, I think he realised the ref had forgot and thought he'd got away with it when the ref didn'tbring out the red card until Bowen told him he'd already been booked Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the fact he walks over, clearly holding up play only to bottle it cos they decided otherwise. Weak as piss refereeing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put them in Man Citys side with De Bruyne, Rodri and Haaland they'd not look out of place. The issue West Ham have is that certainly the latter pair will be off very quickly. Kudus could start for anyone. When you look at their attack versus the defence we could put out, we could rightly expect to be battered. Especially on the counter.

Kudus could start for anyone. Watching West Ham without Kudus and Paqueta was absolutely dreadful. West Ham vs Brighton was the most boring game I've watched in a long time. Bowen looks clueless without them, which is very understandable. When they lose two of them to injury or something else they are in big trouble.

mighty__mag Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 After rewatching, I prefer Gordon on the right and Barnes on the left, Gordon's time on the right when Almiron went off showed complete change in wing play, it was more focused on delivery, he does tend to drift away from the right, but in the first half on the left there was little to no delivery, repeated cut ins and failed shots, and wayward passing, he's so direct though and a constant threat, but on the right he was looking for good delivery and finding his man, seems playing on the left he'd get goals, on the right he'd get assists, Barnes looks an absolute finisher, nowhere near as quick as Gordon, but he finds excellent positions, just feel when they're both fit they both need to play, but Barnes is more suited to the left, Gordon is blessed he can play a few positions.

We also aren't spoiled for choice and as effective a crosser Murphy can be, Gordon is effective enough on the right that, at full strength, just seems to make the most sense to have them both on the pitch if possible Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joelinton7 Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 West Ham Twitter today is both baffling and hilarious. Just them going back through every little piece of contact and saying “that’s a red”, “that’s a pen”. One of theirs was punched in the face before Barnes scored apparently. Free stadium, bubble obssessed wankers. Thanks for the 4 this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
