Oh don't worry Bobby, the locals down here will have them down as world beaters tonight....I'll have a right old going over in work on Monday no worries - That's the problem of being in a minority of one of course.
As I've already said sometimes you've got to front it and take it on the chin.

I hope you are right - it doesnt feel like a comeback is on the cards right now! Can Bilic please get Moses off and put Byram on... Antonio needs to be playing further up!

I agree.
Where are the decent crosses for Carroll to attack??

Oh yeah - looks like Byrams been given the same treatment as Oxford. I trust Bilic has good intentions keeping them out the squad, maybe its to keep them grounded and not harm their development

Play three at the back and push Antonio forward. Also Carroll needs better service.

Why is Moses anywhere near this team? Mainly totally pointless player. Glad to see we are going down to a Swansea second string with a whimper.

Fabianski has been very good today. I don't want to blame Randolph for the gials conceded but i still think there is a big difference between him and Adrian

Bloody disgrace! Champions League no chance,Europa League, touch and go.Still too many defensive frailties in the side ,not potent enough up front .Should never have dropped Sakho at the expense of Carroll,we needed pace today.Why Moses? Why not Antonio and have a proper full back in Byram at right back.There is a stubbornness about Bilic in his decision making that baffles me.We have had two bloody kicks in the teeth this last fortnight ,getting knocked out the cup by Man Utd and now this pathetic performance.End of season conclusion : good progress made but still a long way to go as far as consistency of performance.

Embarrassing! We are not champions league yet in most positions. Got it wrong probably in all areas today. Conceded to easily and failed to score after so many shots. Unless you call it an own goal.

Look at Leicester. I'd swear blind that they do not have more quality in their side than we do. But they go out every time and play with consistency. They defend well and they attack lick lightning. I will say this for West Ham v Swansea -- they started well (somewhat unusual for West Ham this season, really), but they got so carried away with themselves. I can still see Ogbonna missing that sitter and wondering why Ogbonna and Reid were so often in the box -- EVERYONE wanted to be on the score sheet and no one wanted to defend. Not sure how sorry I feel for Antonio. On the one hand he should be played in an attacking role, on the other hand -- he was our right back and he wasn't up to it. Slaven has to take a lot of the blame for this one, too; but I guess we have to allow for some learning. There is, as you say, a LONG way to go.

How the Fuxx he put Holy Mosses on is beyond me, Tomkins should have been on with Antonio further up field. Hope the Manu game is different and he realises the reason Chelsea keep loaning Mosses out is cause he is shit.

Antonio should be further up the pitch. Carroll should probably have given way instead of kouyate and lanzini. We missed some fabulous chances, but we miss COLLINS in centre half --for me Reid hasn't been great this season.

Ogbonna and Reid dont seem to be a great pairing - for some reason Reid doesnt gel like Tomka and Ginge do with Oggy. Used to think Reid was our vest defender, now im not so sure?

Well that was comprehensive, we were awful - I think that the season has finally caught up with us.
Spare a thought for me though I live and work in Swansea for anyone that doesn't know...We have to take this on the chin, Swansea took full advantage of our back four shambles plus our midfield was non existent today.
Massive error in starting Moses plus Barrow on their left made Antonio look exactly what he isn't...A full back.
Far too easy for the opposition....

Our defence hasn't looked as good since Collins and Tonka were injured big mick should be on the wing why doesn't bilic change this back to when we werent conceding so many!

Agreed Red, Antonio was shown up big time today so it is puzzling of why Bilic persists with him playing there. Match was made for Collins today looking at it as well.
Looking at us today though there was a lethargy in our build up play and a complete lack of urgency up front.

Well, otherwise it's not our West Ham if this does not happen! We have always been a roller coaster since I can remember but I'm absolutely satisfied with what we have achieved this season.

Heh that's true.
Definite progress made, I wonder if we've got it in us for two last big performances starting Tuesday night??

We got a wake up call. Still a lot of work to do if both Wh. and Slav to be the real deal despite our hopes. Too many games have been dug out from an earlier mess in the game. Whether it's defence, certain players or bilic not getting it right or persisting with players like Moses or Antonio at right back. So now instead of players like lacazette or baty we will have to make do with a lesser player on our list benteke or bony maybe. Slav said we had too passengers but when did he change them? Bit stubborn or naive? Not a good trait as a manager.

especially about the effects this will have on the quality of our signings. Let's just hope we don't have to fight a relegation battle in the OS. The EPL is so even that this could happen -- Sunderland played like world beaters yesterday, and came from behind twice to beat chelsea.
