I’d already made peace with us not winning the league, our inaction in January sealed it. Even if Liverpool do have a shaky end to the season, we’d still need to be near perfect to do it.
The only way we win is if Salah or VVD have a season ender. You can’t balance that with Saka being out
We lost this well before that card. It’s really frustrating that with all our offensive injuries, the defense is looking so shaky.
From I saw that we were starting with Merino at centre forward, I wasn’t hopeful. But the fact he has stayed on for 90 minutes despite being ineffective is actually just disappointing.
I don’t actually remember a single thing he’s done in the second half.
this is their first clean sheet under Potter? good grief. we have been atrocious. not entirely our fault, but yet so much our fault as well.
The worst part is: we need 2 goals to stay in this title race rn. 1 goal’s a lot better than nothing but we need every point.
Sigh. Even if we get a point… we’re still fucked with MLS out for three
This has ruined my entire weekend.
Whose good idea was it to not get an emergency striker?
imagine if we paid up for watkins
It’s not even like we couldn’t afford it. At some point I think the manager being so particular about the player (not even type, the specific one) really needs to be questioned. How are we still building for the future…the future is now
I mean, to be fair, it’s clearly not Arteta who said no to Watkins.
Zinchenko in midfield, finally, lol. God what have injuries done to us.
Just poor from us innit.
Early subs from Mikel? Oh my days…
Horrible lapse there. Rice left him and Gabriel was nowhere near the cross. Really frustrating that we gave that up.
I don’t know what our game plan is, but it feels like we are letting West Ham dictate the speed of play since we aren’t pressuring them enough when they have the ball (or are making silly fouls and letting them out). I don’t know if we just weren’t up for this type of game, but it’s what we have, and we must step it up if we want a chance to win the league.
8 added? Sterling needs to channel his inner Reiss Nelson
Sterling isn’t going to save us
