West Ham away. Sunday 29th Dec 515pm

[Tatterdemalion]

It is testament to the levels he is playing at that the only negative we can say the only issue with his 1 goal 2 assist performance and relentless run of scoring is that he probably could easily have got a hat-trick.

So far this is his most impressive season for us. Like the first one but he is getting goals and assists. One goal behind his tally from last season.

Plus he does actually want a new contract.. It must be about money. I wonder if our modelling for players his age doesn't take into account how well he has looked after himself?

I don’t disagree with you

All of the front 3 missed enough chances for us to win by 10 or more. Nothing much made of it due to the front three that were playing…….

[BootRoom]

He was MOM. Not sure it was his best game, he missed a CJ shed load of chances

He was a constant threat. In a lot of games this season he hasn't had the same level of cutting edge and sustained involvement over an entire 90 minutes.

Excellent.

Though what always seems to happen is, no sooner than we return to a full compliment of fit players, we get a bunch of fresh injuries. Just to fill that injury void.

Joe Gomez then

Only saw the first 15 because I went out for dinner with the family but they already had a few chances. It felt like every time I checked the someone had scored.

Nice to see early subs of some key players.

Was it just a one sided easy win? How did everyone play?

Nearly everyone played well. It wasn't entirely one sided as WHam hit the bar and post 3 times in all (Kudus played especially well), but we could have scored more as well. Depending on your view, Salah played a blinder, or should have had a hat-trick. Diaz was excellent. 5-0 didn't flatter us. Could easily have been more. The West Ham fans looked disconsolate, which was the highlight for me

Gomez injured

One of those was offside though, so wouldn’t have counted.

[spud_gun]

I mean none of them counted. You don't get a sympathy goal for hitting the bar 3 times

Sure, but it does prove they came close a few times, so it wasn't all one way.

[peterbread]

How did Quansah play when he came on? Hopefully he can build his confidence back up.

[SB]

So there wasn’t one single yellow card for either side. Remarkable

[DerKrampus]

I thought he played quite well, played some decent passes and kept it simple.

[SB]

He’ll get some confidence from the clean sheet hopefully. We are going to need him until Ibou returns.

[BG1973]

Wasn't it United last year he had a Fernandes shocker.. perfectly timed to exercise a demon.

Slot said he did well. Maybe this was intentionally generous for his confidence, because although he was decent with the ball, he got skipped passed in the box way too easily again. Only one incident but could have been a goal.
