Didn't expect such a result, as West Ham were flying until today. Good for Brighton who could stay up again.

Another international break imminent? FFS
It's coming at a good time.

It can't be helped though, for me since next week I'll get extremely busy in my study for the next coming month and I will probably miss loads of matches. Can be for good if we got thrashed by the upcoming difficult matches.

Brighton won, but West ham deserved to get more from that match. They created more chances, played more positive football. Arnautovic and f. Anderson were a constant menance. It's mind bungling how those two ended up at west ham.
Antonio introduction was a mistake in my opinion, he killed their momentum and made constant errors. He is kind of a poor man's sissoko.
All in all, I'm quite sure they will finish at the top half of the table.

I thought Brighton had the more clear cut chances and the Brighton back four not allowing West Ham room to get a shot away (never really looked like scoring), whereas Murray was given two golden opportunities from headers. In short West Ham need to score two cause their defence is still ropey. Anderson looked good and dangerous but even an off form Pogba caused more trouble.

What the hell is going on with the attendance at Spurs? Poch was just pointing it out in confusion in the dugout. Whole top tier empty.

Cardiff with a good chance to score wasted. Why does the Wembley pitch look so terrible?

It'll add a bit more perspective we don't need if Burnley and Palace move ahead of us, even if it's just for a couple of hours.

Maybe boxing or a concert in the middle there? I suppose Spurs weren't supposed to be playing there, so other events would've been planned.

Yeah, it was the Anthony Joshua fight.

Why do Everton appear to be playing in their home kit?

Edit: I think I'm still hungover :lol:

Brooks is a really quality player. He'll be at someone like Spurs in a couple of years.

Pickford is really shit. Must have about 15-20 of those a season that won't go down as a clanger but is just poor goalkeeping and costs his team.

Palace still haven’t scored a goal at home this season.

Just in case anyone missed it. I don't like Mount.

Just about Fulham and Southampton, after looking at the table, I didn’t realize how poor both teams have been. 1 win in 7.

Expect Fulham to lose to Arse 4-0 and Southampton will raise their game against us.
