FA Cup

The best team won over the two games. They should've won in the first match . Moyes has been getting bailed out by the same 3 players all season and they're missing just now. 

 

I can't say it enough, this teams been getting results in spite of Moyes. I said before the Brighton game that the next 6 weeks or so would be very telling and they haven't won since.

 

Paqueta injured, Bowen injured, and Kudus at AFCON. The squad should be good enough to pull through but Moyes doesn't know how to use a squad. When he can't use his chosen first 11 the drafted replacements are off pace because he doesn't utilise them enough otherwise. Again, he has one tactic and it really doesn't work without at least having Paqueta in the team.

 

He still doesn't have a real centre forward after several windows. This is his own fault. Ings was a poor panic buy last January. Not a terrible player but not suited to Moyes' single tactic.

 

Sheffield Utd away on Sunday and I'll be surprised if they take anything home. I'd go as far to say I think they might manage to pick up one point in their next 4 matches.

West Ham just cost me £130, so can go and **** off forever :lol:

 

In fact, seeing as all I needed was a second half goal, Bristol City can join them as well. 

 

Useless, the pair of them.

But he won a European Trophy

But they’re 6th in the league 

West Ham fans should be happy with 2 shots on target away at high flying Bristol City

1-0 down

Down to 10 men

How can we get back into it?

Substitute the right back

Genius

May well get rid of him soon.

Like to see us go at it like that.

We were promised high intensity football but haven’t seen it this season.

They were the same, and the better side in the 1-1 draw in London.

You would think that David Moyes would have expected them to be like that but it seems he didn't.

Just on train back to Pompey after watching the Eastleigh Vs Newport replay. Both teams lacked quality but Newport just shaded with better finishing. When McCallum scored I was going to start singing the Hearts song, but thought I better not.

Moyes is a fantastic coach. i hope he stays for years to come.

I find Sunderland a fairy ridiculous team - those antics with the away bar ffs... - that said, I mind when they played Hibs in a friendly a few years ago and Hibs were crowing about their "11th Man" supporters group. Sunderland weren't impressed and said something along the likes of "There were barely 11 people there". 😄

 

Would like them to get one over on the evil House of Saud's Newcastle Utd though.

 

Been to ER twice with Sunderland and it was carnage both times. 2003 & 2011. That 2011 especially with Hibs attacking absolutely anyone Sunderland (shirters were getting it all down Easter Road)

All these experts who question why West Ham fans want rid of Moyes, should watch last nights game. 

Unmotivated players and players nowhere near good enough with no clue how to turn things around when up against it. 

As has been said, Moyes has been bailed out by three players who all happen to be missing at the same time

On the subject of Sunderland, my very first game without parental guidance was the pre season friendly defeat back in 1981, vague memories of the atrocious season before (only months previously) and a very topsy-turvy season that followed with a stay in the First Division on the cards due to the consequences of the bad running of the club, Sir Alex 😌 finally got us going.

Moyes praised by Steven Naismith tonight when someone asked who has influenced him as manager. Praised his attention to detail.

 

No one mentioned he's hated on JKB.

Is he hated? Why would anyone on here hate him? Because he's not had the decency to resign for only getting Hearts into 3rd place?

You will know a very good mate of mine.

Alex(Paddy) Sharpe. He has not long retired as THE Fleet Joss.

He was a baby RO(T) on the Fife way back in 1984.

The fitness levels of these top teams is astounding. Full pace all the way through, and for added entertainment Richarlison seems quite keen on the idea of banjoing someone.

5 shots on goal whole game at 72mins. Fitness levels may be astounding but christ, like watching chess being played on a football pitch

Maybe but he certainly wasn't fouled at the goal. He was weak as **** and cost his use the tie.

Good to see Ange ****ing up though and it's another trophyless season for Spurs.

🤣🤣🤣 15 seasons now with no trophies. 60 plus years without a league. 30 plus years without an fa cup. Never mention anyone might win a cup again. Be sure to buy tickets for the pink concert for a celebration party in the toilet bowl

There were times when City played the ball back to the keeper, from well up the pitch, when I imagined us doing similar at Tynecastle. We would have been howling at our players for doing that. 
It was quite a boring game, if technically good.

Enjoyed the game and thought City deserved the win.

 

Pity, though.

 

A replay would have been a game to look forward to.

 

That's some stadium the North London Hibs have, btw.

Job done I guess and no replay which I'm sure they were happy about. It was more like a league game. I prefer the FA cup when 2 teams just go for it. A 1st half goal would've opened it up more but then you could say that about most games really. Longer is game goes without a goal, the cagier teams tend to be for fear of losing

Citeh are boring that was tedious and predictable every time I watch them I either nod off or start to switch off 950 passes back and forward side to side no matter opposition, very regimental and mechanical, I mean folk moan if we do that.   Yeah they have great players but tiring out your opponent wasn't cruyff way, still kdb is difference when thor is missing. Doesn't matter who they play theres keeping possession but he overcooks it, number times they make an attack stop go left go right get kyle up wing then bk to another defender or rodri bk to gk never changes and I'm not even liverpool or utd fan but least its bit more exciting watching kloppys crowd.
