It’s agony Arthur again as battling Irons are beaten

No disgrace…no humiliation and no collapse! The scoreline says one thing but the performance told us another against a team that quite frankly arrives from a different footballing planet. And but for the inept Arthur Masuaku, the scoreline would probably been 2-0 despite an offensive performance from the Irons which better finishing could have meant […]

Pep admits his City were “a little lucky”

Honest Pep Guardiola admitted that his Manchester City team were a little lucky to put four past the Irons today (Sat). That is to be applauded because there is no question the League leaders were vastly superior to us over the game and with more luck of our own it could – if not have […]

Was that Masuaku’s farewell performance?

The boss’ verdict: “It was a bad day of defending”

Manuel Pellegrini stopped short of naming names but he was definitely pointing fingers at the team’s defenders after the game against City. Maybe he didn’t need to call anybody out publicly because that clearly happened at half time when Arthur Masuaku was subbed for Aaron Cresswell. The manager was obviously in no mood to stomach […]

Half time report

Half Time 0-3 No surprises then. The ultra cynical finishing of the champions was all too much for the Irons with goals from Silva, Steling and Sane leaving us with a seemingly hopeless task yet the Hammers had more than their moments and were often as threatening as City. For that thank Manuel Pellegrini who […]
