The yellow was for an accumulation of fouls (having been warned), including one on Chilwell (13mins) where his studs were partly showing. PEH was lucky to escape a yellow for that challenge alone.
I don’t want to disclose any trade secrets but in a league competition each team plays each other twice. Home and away. There I said it: the cat is well and truly out of the bag.
The point is pal that West Ham have had a significantly harder start to the season than us -both in terms of opposition quality and home advantage (or lack of it).
Hojbjerg’s yellow was fully deserved pal. It was for an accumulation of fouls, including one on Chilwell (13mins) where his studs were partly showing. Lucky to escape a yellow for that challenge alone.
Without Hojbjerg’s brain fart, we wouldn’t or shouldn’t have won. They were the better side after the equaliser -Lemina, in particular, made a critical block. In all likelihood, the game would have petered out and ended a draw.
Adrian’s convinced the squad quality is on a par with previous successful seasons and it’s only held back by the manager. That view is looking sillier and sillier by the day but he’s too proud to admit it.
