Wasn`t sure who was worse James in the first half or Harrison in the second.
Firpo out of position when they attacked the right side and no idea what he was doing in the middle of the defence when the ball hit him.
Wtf is it with Roberts? He just does not deserve a lace in the match day squad.
And whilst I like Bielsa what is it about him and wingers?
He tried 5 today when it was clear Rodrigo was gassed with 15 to go.
No point having wingers when we don`t get players in the box, not that they can cross the ball apart from Raphina.
Positives Cresswell, Messlier, Raphina and Shackleton until he tired.

like I said bielsa going may or may not be a bad thing. another manager could make us harder to beat. Moyes has made west ham solid, so tough to play against. we have the talent.
bielsas stubbornness is legendary. I really recommend the supurb book on him by phil hay.
it's fairly obvious teams have worked us out but to he fair, at full strength we are a good mid table side. we do need to get some bodies back though

The Klich chance was huge today. How he didn’t score god only knows. He just doesn’t have the cutting edge Klich, his finishing more often than not Is powderpuff. It’s a glaring area of the team that can easily be and should have been upgraded.

Cresswell was class for his age and inexperience which is a big plus for us. Gives us added depth at the back now. We faded today and that was down to having a lot of kids in the squad.

The next 4 games are huge now and Watford could be a nervy game. Id take a win whatever the performance. We simply must win before it becomes a crisis and relegation battle.

Done an absolute superb job. He’s assembling a very good team and improved existing players

The more I see that equaliser, the more I can't believe it went in. We're definitely not getting the rub of the green at the moment

No, we're definitely not. it's been a poisonous mix of extreme bad luck, players out of form and injuries.

We've had some big things go against us of late, it's got to change. However, i do feel we were the masters of our own destruction against west ham, the players on the field and Bielsa made mistakes. Bielsa, leaving Rodrigo on for the last 25 when he was gassed and leaving Geldhart sat on the bench was in the words of Graham Smyth, unfathomable.. and I agree.

Said that previously Rob.
I have no idea why he couldn`t see it when 99% of the fans could.
And why does he persist with Roberts who offers nothing.
He didn`t even look good against Fulham.
I`m hoping Firpo comes good but Lang for me was the better choice and even Leif Davis who I would have kept as back up looks better than Firpo right now.

Geldhert played 60 plus minutes for the u23s the day before, so not bringing him on was understandable. He could have brought Summerville on and moved Roberts up front though.

The form of Dallas, and the inability of Klich to maintain performance and intensity for 90s minutes are the biggest concerns at the moment.
