  1. Is Danny Ings worth a shout? He's in and out of the West Ham team and despite not scoring of late, he's previously had a decent record. He's 31 with good experience.
  2. The previous 87 mins don't count? The time to get his free kick A game working was in the previous 3/4 situations.
  3. OK. The dust has settled and it's perspective time. When Clement came in just over 2 months ago and you provided the following terms and conditions, I would have bitten your hands off: 1. We get back in the league race, potentially cutting down an 8pt lead to 2pts if we win 2 games in hand. 2. We win our Europa League group, (netting 3 million) allowing us to enter the last 16 starting in March. 3. We win the League Cup. All this in the face of dreadful injuries and misfiring players inherited from another manager. We look more functional as a unit than we ever did under Beale. Clement is an astute guy and he would be seeing what we all saw yesterday. We need to be more clinical in front of goal. If we have better striking options yesterday we do not lose the game. Its as simple as that. Let's do Killie and move onwards.
  4. I know this player was recently championed by a now banned poster but I did notice that Langstaff scored a first half hat trick for Notts County yesterday. That's now 38 league goals in a calender year for this guy. Looking at what happened yesterday, we just need a player with a natural strikers instincts. Any striker with an ounce of ability would pounce on that Dessers chance. He wouldn't cost the earth IMO and I reckon teams in the championship will pick him up soon. If you've got it, you've got it. Look at Jamie Vardys meteoric rise.
  5. Agree. Focus on beating Killie and getting players back. I've only seen Celtic 2/3 times this season and I'm convinced they will drop more points. They were average and I feel that we just needed to score first and they would have folded. Oh well.
  6. Agree with all of that tbh. I don't like to single out players but it is clear Dessers will be OK against the cannon fodder in this league. He'll probably get 15 goals this season IMO but if we can upgrade that attacking area today we win the game. Oh and Cantwell needs to gets his finger out of his ass and start imposing himself. He was busy but he just holds into the ball too long.
  7. Ridvan did well IMO. Started shakily but steadied himself into the game.
  8. I think we will win the league but it won't rely solely on what we do against them. They will drop more points IMO.
  9. Not great surprise to lose there tbh. One thing is clear. If we have a striker with an ounce of pace and guile win that game today. On the plus side. Sterling was head and shoulders the best player on the pitch IMO. Honourable mentions go to wee Yilmaz. Elsewhere, Lundstrum didn't look fit to me.
  10. Oreilly should be off the pitch. Stayed on with bleeding nose before. Nonsense
  11. Go out and draw at least. Still think we have goals in us if we calm down.
  12. Stay in the game Rangers. There's goals in this for us. Keep moving the ball quicker and keep pressing their back line.
  13. Don't think we've played too badly at times. They are always going to up for it so no great surprises there. We could have scored 4 goals IMO and why wasn't it a penalty? Ref bottled it. His hand moves towards the ball and denies Sima the chance of kicking the ball when it lands.
  14. He's playing well but has to be quicker with everything. Too many touches!!
