It would be harsh to judge them on the back of this game but they never really seem to get it right. Liverpool have absolutely dominated them but you sense that'll happen to a few teams this season.

Think its mainly tactically naive to play a high line against Liverpool purely due to the way they play. But, like you said, difficult to judge based on a game against one of the best teams 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AjcW Posted 12 August 2018 Share Posted 12 August 2018 Switching to 4 at the back when already 2-0 down... could be a second half blood bath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the high line defending on the edge of penalty area that plays into their hands that I don’t get.

Mickyblueeyes Posted 12 August 2018 Share Posted 12 August 2018 West Ham with all this spending, new philosophy and management look as bad as they did last year. Appreciate Liverpool look awesome but they’ve shown nothing at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've tried to play a 4231, and it's just becoming a 451 with way too much space between the CM and ST. And a high line against Liverpool is tactical suicide unless the offside trap is perfect 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Burnleys earlier start to the season in the Europa has them on it from the off. Edited 12 August 2018 by Max Wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted 12 August 2018 Share Posted 12 August 2018 We need VAR. Without it the "big" teams get all the calls. Refs need the check on them. The media will simply ignore this again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UniFox21 Posted 12 August 2018 Share Posted 12 August 2018 Once again, doesn't matter how you play, the officials can swing a game entirely with 1 or 2 bad decisions. Yet no punishment for them, and for the small teams its completely ignored Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
