Great report, but cant see where the praise for Cousins has come from. For me he looks awkward on the ball and didnt add anything at all. Not the worse player in the world, but feels like he just makes up the numbers |

I keep hearing from Ramsay that we will attack from the off, but im yet to see it! Long ball to Zamora each time we get the ball, and no passing and moving at all. The only time we finally got the ball down and played football, it led to the penalty. Why we dont do this more often rather than lumping it to Zamora, il never understand.
It was obvious we wouldnt win as soon as the lineup was announced. In a must win game, we played x4 center backs, 3 central defensive midfielders and a slow crock up front - against a West Ham team on terrible form, at home! Where exactly was Ramsay expecting the goals to come from?
Our bench had quality throughout, with Isla, Adel, Yun, Fer - all capable of causing West Ham damage, yet we decided to play defensively and play a central midfielder on the left wing.
Ramsay talks a perfect game, but the team selections and decisions again baffle me, and Ive seen no evidence of an improvement on the field in terms of quality - only in hard work |

The frustrating thing for me is that we do have some very good and capable players, but Redknapp keeps playing them out of position. Although the ability of the squad should be improved with new additions, we could be doing so much better if the tactics and team selection was addressed - it really is that simple. Firstly, we had the best defence in the league last season and we near enough changed it completely. Secondly, Leroy Fer is an excellent player, an international central midfielder. Yet he plays on the left every week, even though he has stated himself that he is not comfortable on the left. The player has a great shot on him, very composed and brings the ball forward - but hes not a winger. Why not drop Barton, and simply play Fer alongside Henry? We have plenty of options for left wing who could do a better job such as Niko and Adel. Then we have a Chilean international regular goal scorer, playing on the wing. No doubt that he links up well with Isla, but surely hes being wasted? For me, we need a new left back asap and hope Sandro returns fit asap. Henry has been great, but hes just not good enough for this level in my opinion and Barton has been very poor. There is a lack of composed players on the ball, and we just give the ball away so cheaply - its infuriating. Happy to see Adel given a chance, someone who hasa footballing brain, composure, fearless and adds creativity and goal threat. Without him or Niko in the side, we are way too predicatable. |
