Rice was running about like a headless chicken at points leaving huge gaps in midfield with no one else going with him. It's an absolute no-no against us but that needs to be sorted big time for you guys before the Premier League starts. Cresswell is pretty awful, need a huge upgrade there. What has happened to Cresswell? A few seasons back he was regarded as one of the best left backs in the league?! Injuries taking their toll on him?

Popular Post .Williamson. 83,298 Posted July 20, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 20, 2022 If you’re West Ham that is extremely concerning last night. It wasn’t even a second string either it was just basically their entire starting lineup Tinpot league imo Perth_Campsie_Ger, BlueKnight87, McEwan's Lager and 7 others 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiamondDan 2,386 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Was a bit feart that Matondo would be another Sakala, with pace to burn but inability to use the ball. Can see from his brief appearance last night that he's a diff level. Hopefully his attitude os as good as Sakala though. Lawrence looks a tidy player. Prefer McGlaughlin to McGregor bit I don't think he's the answer at all and he will also cost goals when tested over a full season. Decent performance but it's only a sparring session.

RFC55 109,760 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Enjoyed last night tbh. Some really good goals. sakala will be lucky to see out the week here, he just looks lost tbh. West Ham support was absolutely pathetic as well. One of the quietest away supports I’ve ever seen. tavs pass for matondos cut back was absolutely perfect. enjoyable wee fitness session and some Great goals ayrshireranger, Bluekev, RockwellGers and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davy Vandenbroucke 26,353 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I thought Sands looked good last night at CB, he was very composed in his passing (he basically started the second goal) and did very well up against Antonio. He’s another one who gets slagged rotten for some reason, I think he’s pretty decent and is more than good enough to cover in defence. ayrshireranger and HG5 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

graeme_4 34,961 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Also thought Kamara was very good last night too. Think him and Lundstram should be our sitting two. McLaughlin Tav Goldson Davies Barisic Lundstram Kamara Matondo Lawrence Kent Morelos Struggle to pick a weak point there if Borna is on his game.

I think because he hasn’t really had a defined position, and been brought on late to shore games up and we’ve then conceded. Was pretty good at CB last night.

Imodium 412 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 The positions Lawrence took up for his goal and Matondo’s was excellent. Something we have been lacking over the years. Looks like he will chip in with a few goals, defences will struggle with him and others around him that he creates space for. Souttar done okay will take a bit to find his feet (especially on the left side) but good guy next to him to learn from. If Tav and Barisic can consistently find similar form to last night then we are in for a special season imo. ayrshireranger and falkirkNS 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
