Well, we're not losing...and I'm ok with that, given the poor performance and red card that should never have been.

Who would take 0-0 as a final result now?!

Fair enough if we're not pressing when we're only down to 10, but, before that Adebayor's pressing was laughable. If we're gonna play a high press system he needs to either buck up his ideas or someone else needs to play

Seriously, some of you lot need to go and take a cold shower, AND STAY THERE for the next hour. The cold water might shrink your already tiny brains.

Soldado/Kane and Holtby on please. I can't take watching an unfit Adebayor.

So much for the pressing football...pen yes sending off no. Kaboul is pathetic...had this as a loss we really have lacked the passion....

Daws on for Bentaleb and push Capoue back in midfield.

Townsend for Lennon so we can play effectively on the break.

Play with some heart because we're better than them.

We are getting battered by fucking west ham. Is doesn't get much worse than that.

No positives. Poor selection. Poor tactics. A lot of average/shit players.

Amazing how many happy clapping deluded fans on here.

Because I think naughton and rose are shit and Lamela isn't suited to this league?!

Yeah alright mate.

How have you come to that conclusion when Lamela has played a handful of games in the league? You're the worst kind of fan, nobody cares about your negative throwaway comments. Just grow up.

Keep possession 2nd half, and avoid giving away stupid free kicks or corners. They're only dangerous with high balls into the box.

The ref owes us a dubious decision in the 2nd half, too.

Capoue Holtby

Lamela Soldado Eriksen
Adebayor

Let's see the above in the second half, please. Like I said last week when people we putting Bentaleb next to Capoue, he simply doesn't have the creativity or forward passing ability to play there. Holtby at least can whip in balls with both feet.

Well that's been nothing like pre-season so we're obviously freezing on the first day. The players came out and just left all their training and prep in the tunnel and reverted to type.

Poch must be in wtf?? land.

Some bad bad habits he's got to get out of this lot. Will take time.

Let's see what the halftime talk brings.

If we're going to continue to sit deep Dawson might be an option. Move Capoue upfield.

Dier Dawson Kaboul Rose
Capoue Bentaleb
Eriksen
Lamela--Adebayor​

Cannot agree with that mate, you do not know Lloris would not have saved it. Yes it hit his arm and it's a penalty but fuck that for a red card. He's gone to block a shot, he's stretching for it, you can't do that with your arms down by your side. imo never intentional.

But if you have your arms raised you are intentionally making yourself bigger, and therefore gaining an advantage? I guess it comes down to whether he can stretch to make the block without raising his hands, which, I think he can. Optimistic for second half though, Dier looking very capable at right back.
