There is no world in which loosing to this West Ham side is acceptable. I don’t care if we attacked for 40 mins and hit the post twice. That was incredibly poor. Again.

Largely, the performance is irrelevant. It’s a results business and we’re fucking 9th, could be fucking 10th at the end of the day. Being happy with a defeat away to these ****s just because we gave it a go in the second half is shameful.

West Ham created 4 chances and won that game to our 17. We have to work so hard even to try and win a game that the opposition shouldn’t have had a sniff in. Once again back 4 and goalkeeper costing us.

Dele needs to understand that he's so wasteful in possession and that's why he doesn't start.

Bale should have started this game following his hour in midweek and I can't for the life of me understand why Jose did not play him.

Tanganga off, Doherty loses the ball within a minute and we go 2-0 down. Again another strange decision by Jose. As is the decision to continually include Dier and Sanchez in the starting lineup.

Our forwards are so shit at finishing these days its embarrassing, we keep having dozens of attempts yet lose. And they'll be the ones complaining at the end of the season

How embarrassing! Letting lingard score makes it even worse. Shocking again, no idea going forward or defending. Would love to know what Mourinho can see

Now a real struggle to make the top half of the table. We lost not by attacking but playing a way that relies on defending rather than all our attack. Mourinho is clearly not able to organise a defence unlike the likes of Moyes, Ancelotti etc., etc. So what is the point of having him?

We don’t have a defence, we just concede idiotic goals, everything else in the game is a waste of time.

Don't care that we played well in the second half. Mourinho needs to go. Only because he won a lot of trophies in the past, it doesn't mean he's good enough today. He's done as a top manager.
He cant even organise a defence, thought that was his strong point.

The guy is FINISHED

If our defenders are so shit then we might as well go offensive and try and out score our opponents.

It is.

- Picked our two worst centre backs to play alongside each other and they were diabolical
- Wasted an offensive sub by bringing on an absolute clown in Doherty
- Took off our most creative player in Lamela at half time
- Despite peppering the box with crosses he opted to bring on Alli who was useless instead of our fox in box Vinicius

Playing well for the last 30 mins is irrelevant when you were horrendous for the previous 60 mins and fail to take anything from the game.

Who do you think played better - Lamela, or the player who replaced him?

They both had 45 minutes so you can do a pretty reasonable comparison, I think.
