I'd agree with that. Being a hammer i'm over the moon at how well we are doing this season but i'm also a realist in knowing that Chelsea,Liverpool and City are miles ahead of the rest.

you need to find a way of keeping antonio fit or getting a striker that helps when hes not scoring......not many strikers out there though to be fair

Yes, as I suggested earlier in this thread Brentford were a 'handful'. According to Thomas Frank, Brentford 'hammered' the Foxes in the 1st half ? I would imagine Leicester's long journey to Moscow and back in midweek didn't help their cause ? I think Brentford play a similar game to Burnley with many high balls into the box. Leicester don't defend these very well. However, well done to Leicester for 'hanging in there' and two moments of quality were all the Foxes needed fortunately.

Personally I'd prosecute the twat who made the complaint for wasting police time. Back in the day they'd have told him/her to F off.

I wholeheartdley agree. However, the Police seem to fixate on anything that draws the attention of the media.
Try and get their attention when some scumbag has broken into your garage and stolen a bike.

When Antonio is unavailable, West Ham play a different system, with 3 up front. Antonio is quite a unique player and it is difficult (and expensive) to get a similar player. It is one of the few things that makes Moyes change the system (other than injuries), the one thing he swaps regurlarly is Benrahma and Fornels playing centrally or on the left depending on the opposition. I think he got it wrong on Sunday, Benrahma played in the centre and did not seem to really create much, but he did do his defensive duties, so an improvement on last season. But a win is a win.

I first walked into Upton Park in 1962 and have followed the Hammers ever since. I have never before seen a West Ham team like this one and it is all down to Moyes, he has transformed the culture at the club.
West Ham have had some great players over the years, but prior to this we mostly tended to look like a Ferrari towing a caravan. Pretty to look at but not fast enough for lane three.

Our last home match I went to before the pandemic was against the Hammers, which went well for us. Here's convivially hoping you get battered tomorrow!

City will be favourites if they put out a strong team on Wednesday.
Saying that with their squad even a weakened team will still be very good

I'm not too bothered about this one. We're fourth in the league, three points away from the knockout stage of the Europa League (Possibly even one if other results pan out for us) and with the FA Cup rounds to start after Christmas. Even the biggest clubs can't go for everything and there's no chance of anyone else being able to do it.

Most successful EPL club this millenium (Chelsea FC) - with MUFC in the doldrums we should stay there for quite some time.
