West Ham United V Fulham Match Thread 01/09/12 Berba on Bench, Richardson starts

[Aaron]

On the evidence of the season so far Hangeland is also becoming a weak link..  He has been dire this year.

[Lighthouse]

Swart has looked poor but so too has Brede. Not close to some of the high balls. Carroll aint all that wonderful. Yet today is making Brede looks silly.

[RidgeRider]

we lost are two best players and we need time to adapt. to be fair, West Ham are REALLY up for the match. It feels like there are 12 players on the pitch for them.

Lets see if we can settle down. Get a goal or two back and walk away with our heads up.

[ToodlesMcToot]

Don't understand the sub. The problem was midfield not up front.

The game is lost. At least Berba will get some much needed game time.

[Adam87]

OMG WE HAVE STARTED PLAYING......

[McBridefan1]

Let's not panic, we basically have an all new side from the team that had grown into a solid unit over the past several seasons. Once this group of very good footballers get a bit more familliar with one another we will be just fine. Very sad to see demps and dembele go had they stayed and added berbatov we really could have been a top 6 side... where's the ambition? lol... that's right qpr have all the ambition. LOL

[CincyFulham1]

Why didn't someone tell me Sanchez was back in charge

[the nutflush]

Thank god.  Richardson off.  Hes been absolute poo.

[Enter the Frei]

on the upside Berb has definitely still got it

[RidgeRider]

kaca on

[alexbishop]

Berbatov looks class

[TWFL]

Agree, Richardson's not been great.. Only his first game though

[Lighthouse]

Well other than our keeper and back four and our midfield and no penetration. I don't think we are looking bad.

[LordNelson]

Zamora, I mean, Carrol rolling around all over the place

[RidgeRider]

Carroll down

[Nick the Swede]

Well other than our keeper and back four and our midfield and no penetration. I don't think we are looking bad.

No other analysis needed... Will surely be used at MotD

[RidgeRider]

Agree, Richardson's not been great.. Only his first game though

agreed, he hasn't even trained with the team yet I don't think so lets don't judge him on today's performance...or the team for that matter. We have a lot of adapting to do with the loss of the Dems

[RidgeRider]

Berba showing his quality, give him freedom and he is dangerous

[Willard]

Leaving aside the fact that Carlton Cole is playing and always scores against us I'm hoping we can keep this at 3-0 or even get one back.

We appear to be playing.

[supersimmo123]

Berba is the only thing that is making this bearable.. if he scored for me its like seeing us win!
