GWT: Premier League Gameweek 11

[phisherman]

Yeah if he used his much weaker foot, which he decided wasn't good enough to use in that situation. The same thing may have happened.

Maybe. Just saying that was a better chance than anything Liverpool had done prior to their goal.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

I can't say I watch West Ham often, so I don't know about other games, but I find it hard to blame Bilic for this hot garbage.

They aren't playing THAT badly. But these individual errors and lapses in concentration have been going on for a season and a half. Enough already.

Firmino on the back post? Not sure about that. But again as with the Ayew situation, not a great scenario for either player to score (Firmino because he can't finish).

Ah I forgot about that. But just to nitpick Firmino didn't have as much room to finish compared to Ayew.

Well. They set up to have two players on the halfway line on a corner when the other team has Salah, Mane, and Oxlade-Chamberlain. That is enough speed where a team should really know better. Any ball cleared to the feet of either player will likely end up in a great counter attack. That is the manager's fault.

Well that's what I mean. You can't coach away some of these errors. If you don't know not to step up in that situation with no cover behind you...well no manager is going to change that.

They had two players back. One of them just decided to come up and challenge mane for the ball despite not being able to get anywhere near it.

Tactics were fine, that was an individual mistake that lead to the goal.

As much as I like Bilic, his only gameplan at West Ham is "give the ball to Payet" (and he made things possible). Since his departure, there's absolutely no plan, tactic or whatsoever. Just hoping for the best, which doesn't happen very often.

Ayew also always scores against Liverpool

West Ham offers nothing going forward. That's not on individuals, that's a manager without ideas.

And again, this has been going on a long time. Luckily for Bilic up until this point, he has a braindead board that's detached from reality.

Watching the chance again, Mignolet did a better job than I initially thought. I think the only avenue to score was between his legs.

Like I said, I don't watch them enough to know. He certainly should be getting more out of some of the talent he has, but these individual errors are killing them.

 

[YNWA14]

I think I'm referring to the fact that they didn't score against a parked bus. They capitalized from a poorly executed corner and a fluke bounce.

When they actually break through a bus then you can say they learned.

Like Huddersfield or Maribor?

It's not only breaking through the bus, but doing it without giving up goals and while still maintaining control of the match. It appears without Lovren there this is easier to accomplish.

Klavan isn’t out there trying to do Cruyff turns

Klavan isn’t out there trying to do Cruyff turns

Or following players like Benteke up to the wide left side of the halfway line.

 

[Live in the Now]

Gomez. That was really bad. Hopefully Clyne is back soon.

 

[Edo]

Pretty sad dive by Mane.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Joe Gomez lol

Nice finish.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

So West Ham.

Pathetic.

 

[Savant]

AOC opens his account seconds later

 

[LemmyUlanov55]

Sweet goal, Lanzini!

EDIT: Yeah sure.. lol

 

[Live in the Now]

Great save by Hart on the first one. Good finish on the second.

 

[Savant]

Gomez. That was really bad. Hopefully Clyne is back soon.

Gomez should not be getting beat on a ball like that by Lanzini for any reason

 

[YNWA14]

What a play by Firmino
