Next Saturday becomes massive, win that and we're in a great spot. For all the panic so far there's been a lot of strange results this season, if anyone gets even a small degree of consistency they'll be safe.

As far as today West Ham looked rubbish, and ASM and Almiron scared the hell out of them as they should be doing to most defenses. Still can't believe neither of them scored on that break at about 35 minutes though. Joelinton busy, I feel we might eventually get some fluency from the three of them.

I've not seen Snodgrass' goal yet, but their first was a bit of a mess, a little flick and a small error from Dubravka. I think we're not a team that can be relied on to keep clean sheets, so that press has to keep going as much as we can, at 3-0 up on the hour we should have had fresh legs on. Can't complain too much though!

From what I saw Shelvey looked better than usual, but I don't think they gave our midfield much of a problem. Hayden didn't even get booked.

Me too. Was having my hair cut. Not replacing a strip light though. Took 2 hours and £40. Tbf I'd not had my haircut in almost 18 months.

Cheers Don! Should have been out of sight at halftime. St. Maximin’s got some serious pace on him.

Is Almirón ever gonna score? <laugh>
It’s the noise, the passion, the feeling of belonging, the pride in your city.

Probably not <run>

The encouraging thing is that he doesn’t try and hide and is getting into the right positions. He also works his socks off and fits into our counter attacking style.

He's oddly had some decent distance strikes that have almost come off (like the one in the second half), and then has really buggered up some easier ones on the break. But he's so fun to watch, and it seems like they might finally be developing some chemistry and understanding of eachother's movement.
