I’ll tell you what, these cunts responsible for last season got off lightly with us. But this is going to get toxic very quickly at this rate.

There's no movement. No anticipation in attack or defence. No thought to get after the game. Just slow recycling and ball watching.

As someone else here mentioned, is Captain Jack ill or something? This is worse than just the switching off and brainfarts we are used to.

Again, at the last goal, he blocks Wellington from following Bowen inwards, and then barely moves as Bowen moves to the side of both of them.

You joke, but this is as bad as anything Still produced. 

Still did it for longer

I've been trying to think of a word for this and come up with "cuntwankers"

That sound quite appealing, I think you need to come up with something else.

FA might be doing the club a huge favour shortly. 

What, paving the way for the managerial genius that is Lallana to take over, you mean...? ;)

Amongst many others

Don't get me wrong, I know Wellington's rusty.. but he's been to blame for so many west ham attacks. Giving the ball away, out of position, letting longballs bounce... Glad he's done this in a cup game.

I switched off at 1-3, so missed Jack’s latest brain fart.

Sadly, more chance of a reaction from a dead sheep than our fans. Even the few left at FT tonight will look round to see if they’ll get in trouble before they think about booing.

We completely brought this on ourselves. We were comfortably on top then let our intensity drop to criminally low levels. The glacially slow play around the back invited West Ham back into the game and now we have no clue how to turn it around.

Agree but it did help Wham’s cause that they could sub on 4 prem standard players. We look miles off them and miles off the team we were second half of last season.

This is the worst we played since the first half at Leicester

Massive wake up call


Yea, really bad. 
 

Aside from Bowen this WHU team hasn’t been anything special at all. Basically their C team and it’s been so comfortable

I don't think Mubama is an alternative option to Larin, he scored a nice goal on Saturday but if Cyle is out for any length of time we'd be pretty screwed.

Great play by Edozie, he's looked dangerous a few times. 

Mubama statuesque in responding to what should have been a tap in.

It has been atrocious but ultimately it doesn’t matter. Yes, we’ve been rolled over but the league is the focus. Trying to get a positive out of it, Spors and Dragan will have seen we need to strengthen without it costing us points. Also, if it means Jack Stephens is nowhere near the starting eleven then tonight has been worth it. Let’s see how the land lies after Millwall.

Anyone who ditches Russ/SR slow and sideways would be an improvement. Whether that’s him or a new face who knows. Cheltenham Town and Gloucester Rugby will be seeing a lot of me though. I can’t watch that garbage - it makes the Branfoot years look like peak Lawrie.

We played three premier league teams last year. Beat two of them, including the champions. 

We haven't competed today. Last season we made it hard for teams to play against us. Today we've been easy to defend against because we're just so slow with the ball.

Could not give a shit about the cup. As long as they are fully focused for the league. Off day I much prefer in this. As mentioned we got stuffed by Boro in the new year and it all turned out well in the end.

I agree, I dont think hes  had a proper chance at Saints since he was clobbered at Norwich.

Really poor from Stephans, Wellington, and Peretz tonight.

Bragg and akachugwu basically non events and may as well have not been on the pitch.

Scienza scored a nice goal but really their reserve keeper should never have conceded it. Other than that he was a non event.

Corners and set pieces were once again awful.

No one really impressed for me. Larin's and Azaz's brief cameo probably the only time we looked like a dangerous attacking outfit.

Own goal from Eckert (he's back to making his novice errors where he just walks eyes wide open in to avoidable fuck ups)... We've damaged our confidence and boosted a direct rival who was struggling.

He will be in the starting eleven on Saturday.

Players arriving for the game by coach... Bit overkill for round 2 of the EFL cup...?
