West Ham vs Liverpool - Premier League (18/19 - Game 25)

[Venton]

Well, lots of huff and puff but at the end of the day that was far too easy for West Ham.

We weren't great all around but I thought Keita and Firmino were poor. Bobby I can forgive but Keita has shown nothing to deserve his place in that midfield even with the injuries we had tonight. He was awful in midfield for large parts of the game and caused us problems in defence as well. Not sure why Klopp keeps with him but there you go. We're in trouble now.

On the plus side I thought we would lose tonight.

[labourRed]

Naby showed enough at the end there that he can be useful and Lallana was brilliant. Not sure it's our year though.

[Slinky Skills]

No one on here has the stomach for this it was never going to be a procession. But.... Unless my maths is out we are three points clear?

Everton will obviously lose on Weds so we go second.

We need to beat Bournemouth to go top.

City then have Chelsea.

I’m not giving up til it’s done either way. If we’d won every single game of course it would be easier. But we will need to dig in some times. This is our sticky patch and it so far comprises 2 draws.

We will be lucky to finish in the top four if this form continues.

[BigChief]

Naby was fecking atrocious. And you know what, he wasn't even our worst player on the pitch.

Firmino was West Ham's best player. His passing to West ham players was in the high 90%. Better than any other West Ham player.

[Fredo]

It's all good. We're still three points ahead. It's never going to be easy.

But we need to chill the **** out and play our football. The expectation is a lot and it showed. We tried to force our play little bit.

[DeanoUK]

Horrific. Not a single positive from our last two games.

I thought Brighton was utterly awful too, and Palace was a random oddity! We’ve been ****e since the city loss.

Odd as it is at the top of the table, we’ve rarely clicked to this season up top, now the defence is fragile it’s showing deepening the cracks

[Exiled_red]

We needed another forward either in the summer or in January, Salah and Bobby have been off for a couple of games, maybe they're knackered, I don't know, but they have to play because Sturridge and Origi are nowhere near good enough.

[Kenneth]

Never mind Derek. Might have been nice if we'd played like we needed a goal at 60 minutes. I think it's more about squad depth, but we are bottling it. Sending Clyne out was such a stupid decision.

We are not playing well, but I agree that it's mainly about squad depth and quality. The bench was awful at the start, and we had matip, lallana, keita and Milner at RB on the pitch. That is not a side that's going to have an easy away game anywhere in the pl.

We will be lucky to finish in the top four if this form continues.

[Norbs]

Yeah I still think we'll win. We should improve from that first half showing.

The kiss of death

[BG1973]

Keita improved in the last 15 mins.

When he realised he wasn’t getting hooked.

Tiny boost of confidence and he improved.

He’s in the middle at the moment, trying to play a game that doesn’t bring out his quality - let him off the leash. We need a difference maker.

Gomez and Trent out hasn’t helped - our squad isn’t that deep after all.

Why the **** did Klopp let Clyne go? Absolute madness that looks likes it's costing us.
