Playing like a second rate team is an understatement. Woe is us!

Placing all our bets on the second half now!

It's suicide to play almost the same eleven this period. We've got Pedro, Willian, Batschuay... come on, Antonio, that's good depth. Morata is tired, Zapacosta is dumb, Alonso is still slow and tired, Cesc is tired, Eden is tired. This one is on coach. 

Best description of Zappa I've seen

lAZZINI IS CLASS

Seeing that we struggle to go forward in a fast coherent manner, would it make sense to bring on Pedro for Baka?

In general, this season practically every game demonstrates our mind boggling  failings on the transfer market in the summer.

Well that was a pretty sh*t half

Awful first half of football from us. As usual, we started slow and this time we were punished for it. We got a bit better but you can't start slow and like that and then just expect things to click. For years there has been an attitude at this club with starting slow, it just seem's to be something that never changes no matter who is in charge. West Ham are looking comfortable right now because we let it happen with our poor start. 

We basically wasted a half of football, we will have to put in a top performance to get anything out of this now. It's not like last week for West Ham, we haven't exactly forced West Ham into using a lot of energy like City did.

Yeah its really classy and doesn't at all make us look like spoiled idiots.

Could have used Drinkwater in Baka's place today, would have been useful.

Think he’s out with illness though mate, otherwise I have no doubt we would have.

Am I the only who has a problem with the formation? We play 5 defenders every match with 2 very ineffective wing backs. Why?

Horrible start, after which West Ham allowed us to have the majority of possession and hoped to hit us on the counter. They looks well organised and have executed Moyes's game plan well. We haven't looked very threatening going forward so have nothing to lose by throwing on one or two attacking players. We need to turn that possession into real chances.

terrible performance. 

No intensity. We look asleep as we did against Burnley and palace. 

I'd bring on pedro and moses to play wing back. 

Good thing I was sleeping in 1st half. Hoping for better performance from the team in 2nd half or I'll carry on sleeping.

That was ridiculous, don't think that bunch could even play like that against our under 21s. We turned up 15 minutes late to the game just like last weekend, but not doing anywhere near enough to turn it around. We looked so tired, not closing down and not chasing the ball, the goal we conceded was a prime example. I'm expecting a blast from Conte right now, and I have the feeling he may throw on a Willian on Pedro after HT, we needed someone to lift the team. That pitch was illegally narrow, it will take something to break them down. We will probably revert to a 4231 late in the game, think they will just defend their box and occasionally run around us by the sideline.

Come on, I was expecting 3:0 by now, not going down 0:1 and looked like the game was a day earlier than expected.

What is it with us and these london derbies. We seem to not turn up. We should know these london clubs are gonna turn up vs us especially at home. Zappacosta and alonso are poor, we need serious upgrades of wing backs asap.

Alonso keeps passing back when he goes forward or doesn't have pace to grt past his man, and zappa is out of position on many occasions like a headless chicken.

How would you describe the way he always stays behind the ball - no matter which team had the last touch? Cuz this is exactly where he ends - in the middle of nowhere. Stupidity.

Oh well willian on to save the day......or shag every f**king attack we have 

Pedro on the bench? Would bring him on before Willian.

I was being a bit cynical mate after his last performance 

3-4-3 right from the start of the 2nd half please, take Baka and ZC out and get Moses and Pedro on.

I just don't think Conte understands the importance of London derbies!

MICHY MOSES AND PEDRO HAVE TO COME ON. ZAPPA BAKA AND WHOEVER GOTTA BOUNCE

I think that Fabregas need some time of rest, he plays lot of games recently

I said it...

Willian Pedro and Hazard ripped these apart last season, i think Hazard plays better when they are on the pitch.

Lack of positional awareness?

Problem being you take Cesc out that team and the only one who’s going to create ANYTHING is Hazard
