His first win will probably be against us.
Premier League Matchday 4 (Sep 9-11)
- Thread starter Sigma
- Start date
Secondo win in a row for Rafa.
Don't be so cruel.
Mikel Merino looks a very good prospect.
No you're right, it's nothing like it. Probably why everyone has referenced the Nani incident as a similar occurrence.
Are they calling it that?
Should be done for false advertising.
Subpar Sunday.
Yeah good luck with that.
Quota Sunday.

Yep thought he was done
You're right again!
A fair few people referenced the Nani incident on this very forum as a similar incident. Don't be so pedantic
I don't know if this is the right place for this but does anyone else get annoyed with the analysis of zonal marking in this country?
Anytime a team concedes a goal from a set piece and are defending zonally, the system is blamed. The pundits talk about how crap a system it is, how it looks stupid that they're stnaidng around not doing much as the ball flies into the net.
Every time they concede a goal, its due to the system. Why does nobody do the same when they concede goals from man marking?

True. Last night on MOTD they were analysing a goal Swansea (I think) conceded and said it was the first headed goal they conceded for a while, but had to blame zonal marking! Didn't make sense since they were using zonal marking in all the previous games where they didn't concede from headers!
First time, I have ever seen Hernandez play out wide. Heck, I never seen a goal poacher player anything but centrally.
Expected West Ham to score then.
Was hoping for better than we got yesterday. Alas No.
Maybe I just have to hope for a fight in the stands again.
You must be super bored or football crazy to watch West Ham vs Huddersfield
Bit of both.
Underwhelming weekend of football apart from the Scouse getting a battering.
Now a West Ham game and they're not losing yet!!!

I watched both games yesterday...
Same here. Riveting stuff.I watched both games yesterday...
Antonio would be A great replacement for Valencia. If he learns how to discipline himself in defense.
I'm going for a 0-0 to round off a totally amazing value for money Sky weekend of football.
I'm going to ring up and demand a refund.
Wonder how long before the West Ham fans start losing it.
Somewhere Kenny Dalglish is salivating at the prospect of a Hernandez - Carroll partnership.
Antonio is the big threat for West Ham.
Both systems have flaws, but zonal seems worse, as you're marking space and allowing players to run in untouched, which can be pretty tough to deal with on the right delivery.
But man to man as we saw v Stoke goes to turd when your defender is completely beaten by the attacker.
A typical Monday night graveyard shift job.
Always feels weird when they put a huge game on Monday
Bilic must be desperate if he starts with Carroll. He escaped the sacking for quite some time now, but it is inevitable. West Ham are shit
Where the feck is Kasey Palmer?
Brighton v. Bournemouth on Friday, then Palace v. Southampton on Saturday. The excitement is killing me.
It's like Sky don't want money
Sunday looks good though
At least it is actually a Super Sunday this time. They are struggling without any CL football. Just scrabbling about to show any game for the subscriptions.
