Mignolet telling someone to use their head, oh the irony.

Pan faced twat.

Lots of therapists' personal lives are a shambles.

 

[Portly]

It would help if Flanno could take out a few more of their players.

I think Klopp's subs actually hurt us today. We were really controlling the middle with Coutinho/Teix ... He should have bought on studge/origi for benteke/ibe (to ensure the same formation was kept).

It's incredible just how many minutes we've played this season.

Agreed, well, i'd add that it's not the formation that's the problem, it's the fact that Ibe is playing the tip of the diamond, he's the wrong player for that, Teixeira would have been much better there.

Stewart has had a good game again.

 

[Frogfish]

Uh. Another match that going to keep me up past 06.30.

 

[Insignificance]

You got to love the cup!!!

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Stewart has had a good game again.

I'd like to see him start as DM in the league ... Something about him seems 'good'

 

[cloggypop]

Don't worry. I got extra beer in as I was expecting pens.

 

[gkmacca]

West Ham must have some strategy that involves taking an age to start the game again every time one of their players falls down. It was the same in the league game. Their matches must last on average about 110 minutes.

We've played pretty well, although yet again the old Rodgers' era faffing about in the middle of defence is exasperating.

We need to play it wide rather than try to slip something through the middle all the time.

 

[hmmmmm1]

Stewart looks a good player, has good energy and has game Intelligence

 

[mark1975]

The tackle by that bald twat was a joke, Stewart is lucky his leg is still in one piece.

Couts just coming back and tex looked tired I thought. Agreed ibe should have gone off

 

[mark1975]

Also, the decision to take off both Tex AND Coutinho was perplexing to say the least. We completely lost it in midfield after that. Stewart and co had no outlet infront of them and there just became this huge gap between defense and attack.

 

[Frogfish]

I'd play Flanno there

Well Smith is as solid (or more so than Moreno) and is our best FB in attack. His pace and overlapping alone is worth a place in our starting team.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Oh, and Lucas has been really good.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

and Pedro has been bloody solid ...

 

[Squiggles]

I was just thinking our recent defeat to Everton on pens could affect us until the realised that was on football manager in 2022.

I thought that was just generic Hollywood romcom plot 203?

 

[LeTallecWiz]

AH FUCK ... hammy Smith

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Ilori hasn't played badly - handled the physicality of West Ham rather well.

 

[Mystic]

Oh, and Lucas has been really good.

and Pedro has been bloody solid ...

Yep, Pedro, Stewart and Lucas are my men of the match, Smith right up there too.

 

[bkwitche2]

Really do feel sorry for Benteke at this point.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Benteke just isn't getting a goal.

In form he'd have had a couple tonight at least.

 

[Mystic]

Gotta score Christian.

 

[bkwitche2]

Double sorry.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

I cannot believe Benteke couldn't get that on target ... Fuck's sake. Come on big lad.
