Metallica… day two… London Stadium. Even better than Friday. Generational entertainment, the best father son day out, sharing the stadium with legends. No synthetic, AI generated slop here, just honest raw heavy metal for a hungry, appreciative crowd #Metallica

I’m as pretty far removed from being a Chelsea fan as you can get, but VAR is pulling their pants down at Sunderland. Denied a penalty from the Luke O’Nien steamroller into Palmer; concede a soft penalty in an equal shirt tug of war between Brobbey and Colwill

Embarrassing football yet again. West Ham have scraped just one point from the last four games. Only won two of the last eight. The rot has well and truly set in. The team has been beyond quick fixes for too long, Parker and Noble have a lot of backsides to kick #westham #coyi

West Ham totally in control for 50 minutes but where were the clear cut chances? Rovers break, 1-0. So who do we turn to? Solomon and Taty. Rovers break again 2-0. Would be nice if Hermansen dived now and again. Lot of work for Parker to do #westham #coyi

Something had to change at West Ham. After Saturday I’d reached the end point with trying to understand Nuno’s gameplan. Team play has regressed, the strikers he wanted haven’t performed, changing to a back 3 mid game wasn’t working. Crucial period for the club #westham #coyi

On a depressing day of West Ham ‘football’, I have just smiled for the first time in several hours… #coyi

West Ham are so poor I can’t believe what I’m watching. Two home games, two defeats, schooled by teams who know how to battle playing Championship football. B awful. Pass pass pass around the back going nowhere, no gameplan, no invention, no fighting instinct. Nothing #whufc

Albion scored and the Bowl turned TOXIC until lifeboat Bowen sailed into view. West Ham persisting with slow, laborious, predictable build-up play. The couple of times we’ve let Austbo and Bowen run at people have been the highlights. Play them in earlier for god’s sake #coyi

Taty on the West Ham bench, no surprise really. Has looked off the pace for a few weeks. Big responsibility for Pablo today but we know he’ll give it his all #westham #coyi
What's gone wrong for Taty Castellanos at West Ham? Another huge home game tomorrow against West Brom but with 1 goal in 11 Championship games is Taty the right man to lead the front line? #westham #coyi youtube.com/shorts/QWkdyOMsc…

No West Ham predictions today… just a desperate need to win and get the promotion push back on track… #westham #coyi

I can’t stop obsessing about West Ham’s performance against Southampton yesterday. For the first goal there are FIVE players that could have prevented it if just ONE of them hadn’t messed up. Fighting for top spot in the table with all the enthusiasm of a cat having a bath ⚒️🫧

West Ham have scored 32 goals in 12 games without a first choice striker… they are all as bad as each other. Sticking them all on the pitch at the end of the game was pointless. And it has to be Austbo over Solomon every time… what a washout of an afternoon ⚒️🫧

West Ham were poor, referee was bl**dy atrocious…. one of those games where the loose ball runs to your opponents for the goals while their keeper flaps at everything and gets away with it. Bottom line though, not good enough and Southampton were good enough to cash in ⚒️🫧

Jeez that first 12 minutes was some of the most disgraceful ‘defending’ I’ve seen from West Ham since… well, last season I guess. Southampton’s back line are there for the taking but we’ve made their forwards look like prime Barca. We’ve assisted all their goals! Bleak ⚒️🫧

Middlesbrough hit top spot last night but West Ham just need to concentrate on banking the wins. Two very important home games back to back, beginning today against the Saints. Come on you Irons! ⚒️🫧

What a battle and a hugely important win for West Ham at table toppers Swansea. Swans keeper Vigouroux made some vital saves while they missed some absolute sitters themselves. Bank that and move on to next weekend #westham #coyi

Surely Austbo should have come on for Solomon? Kante was marauding successfully all over. West Ham nervously holding this 1-0 lead #westham #coyi
