Friday Night Round Up

Once again Talking Hammers will dissolve the weeks West Ham related activities in our regular feature – ‘ The Friday Night Round Up’.  It’s been another disappointing week to be a Hammer’s fan, but chin up, it’s been a lot worse than this.

We start our seven day round up with the highly entertaining game against Liverpool last Saturday.  Throughout the aftermath of the match many a West Ham fan were predicting a season of doom and gloom.  We wonder if these negative fans were the same fans who campaigned against the Alan Curbishley regime.  During which, although sometimes boring, we did seem to win this type of game.  We asked for attacking, attractive football and that is what Zola is giving us.

The least said about the Bolton game the better.  We started really well and looked like we had the beating of them, but it wasn’t to be.  Teams simply can’t give Bolton that many set pieces and expect to keep a clean sheet.  Our fitness does seem to be an issue as we look very tired in the last quarter of games, this needs to be improved.

With no game this weekend we could find ourselves in the bottom three come sunday night.  How much can we really expect from monday nights trip to the City of Manchester ?.  It would need a special performance to take home three points.  Do we have it in our locker ?

Comments please.
