West Ham - v - Leeds United ***Matchday Thread***

[ColombianWhite]

Pascal Struijk was fantastic today , he is the only player that could handle Antonio , great result and performance all round , hope Foreshaw is not injured again after signing the new contract ! and where is Bamford ?
Well done Leeds

Bloody Hell with bells on. You cannot fault our effort in that game. James ran his socks off, the defence were superb - apart from Ayling's utterly ****e distribution which put us in trouble multiple times. Hjelde looked very composed and Dallas was all over the pitch. Rodrigo was off the pace (and having been out injured is not really an excuse) and way too greedy.

I felt sorry for Klich as he deserved a goal and who would have thought Bowen would spoon it over from 3 yards out?

He is the best defender at the club and I'll not listen to anyone who disagrees. Llorente and Koch can battle for the other spot in defense. On Koch though he did well in midfield today

Great comments from Souness about the honesty of the side and how we play, really great comments.

I think Hjelde looks really promising too. Without the inevitable injuries that we will obviously suffer I would think that Cooper's future game time will be limited.

Struik is a superb player, far better than Cooper, strong and reliable, lorente and Koch can fight for the other place, an unexpected result today, but so so welcome, shows what we can do when we have just a few of our players back, I can go to work tomorrow head held high, watch match of the day tonight and have a pleasant week, thanks Leeds, well played boys.

My blood pressure is shot.
1. Rodrigo had a few very poor touches.
2. Dallas is a Leeds legend.
3. Harrison was great today
4. West Ham players clearly expected to win this match. Played as if Leeds were championship club and strutted like they could just walk past us. Oddly lifeless in the first 10 to 15 min.
5. Very difficult to beat the same team more than 3X over season and a half. Happens in most other sports too. Think about Leeds Derby in Bielsa's 1st season.
6. Koch looks decent in holding midfield position.
7. Bate has potential. Hjelde has potential
8. Struijk is premier league quality.
9. Hope Forshaw is not badly injured.
10 West Ham players do whinge a lot and Antonio's dive in 1st half was disgraceful. The worst I've seen this season.

He’s not a centre forward, but little Davy Jones ran his socks off up top.

Great team performance. Very happy here!
