Fuck Pellegrini looking cheesed off, just spend the next week introducing our defence to one another as they must sit at different tables at work and are only on nodding terms.
Then maybe introduce them to the concept of corners and how to defend them as they were obviously off school the day that got covered.
Maybe then go to the dwarf, wrestle his purse off of him and buy a division 2 left-back as he's bound to be better than the fucking headless chicken we've been playing there lately.

More to the point does anybody think Pellegrini's looking a bit cheesed off.
Yes, agreed. As I've said already earlier, the real danger here is not us 'sacking Pelle', it is him getting fucking fed up with the amateurish ways of the club, and orchestrating his escape.
Some of the players currently making the side out of necessity are surplus to requirements; they know that and are behaving badly. Arnie had no balls to face us fans at the LS again and you can bet he's out for the rest of the season one way or another. Another fine mess...
If we're making a mistake currently, it is continuing to try to play beautiful football when half of the starting eleven are 'hoof it chase it' merchants. Damage limitation is needed.
And Nasri injured? Nah... I wonder if he's been tapped up..?

Also Pellegrini gets a very smooth ride from the majority.....had the last 3 games happened under Moyes or Bilic there would be outrage.
His subs last night alone make me question his thinking......let alone the 2nd half showing

Very doom and gloom on here.....yes another shit result and performance and Liverpool will roll us over on monday but then we could go on another run of 2 wins out of 3 and things will be rosy again
Just keep Carroll and Arthur away from the side. Would like 1 or 2 loans in before the deadline and then we need to shift 5 or 6 in the summer with some more quality bought in

Wouldn't be surprised that he wanted Arnie out of the way and diddy Dave went over him to sanction his bonus.

I can this season completely tailing off now, and us finishing 15th/16th but without ever being in real danger (if that makes any sense?). Clubs with a lot more momentum and motivation are going to come past us.
Because of the ludicrous decision to just give up in the FA Cup, this is now yet another complete dead rubber of a season for West Ham United - and this happens far too often in our history.
People can carp on about how hard it is to break the oligopoly of the big clubs, but culturally speaking we aren't even trying - and yet we're spending a small fortune treading water.
We are still a very badly run football club which never appears to have a sense of co-ordination, planning or purpose.
Our transfer "policy", such that one exists, is all over the place and our training ground is now full of over-rated players with a proven history of being regular crocks.
We don't take major competitions, other than the Premier League, remotely seriously. Yet we are never fully in a position to make a run at the bigger clubs (even those competing on the fringes for European slots).
Our youth policy is still OK, but has nonetheless tailed off somewhat in recent years (admittedly from a very high point) as we have continued to lose out to the big recruiters. But there are things that well-run clubs are doing with their youth development that we hav barely touched on.
All in all, we're just a club drifting along without purpose, poise or performance.
The key thing about West Ham I remain proud of is our incredible fan base - who are still paying in their droves to see such abject nothing-ness. The fact that we're now the seventh biggest actively-supported club in Europe is incredible considering how poor we have been for a very many years.
And don't get me talking about that fucking stadium.
In the words of the great philosopher Daniel Dyer, it still freaks my nut.

Silva hasn’t been in the last two squads, can we presume he is injured?
With the seven listed above plus Nasri, Cresswell & now Arnautovic that would make 11
Which is frankly ridiculous
Add that to some players like Hernandez, Obiang & Perez who would prefer to be elsewhere some of our struggles make a bit more sense

It feels like we always have the worst set of injuries to key players out of all the clubs in the league.
Is that factually bollocks or is it really a thing?
Or is it because we can only find “fixer uppers” ? Maybe it’s the way we play.
I’m actually amazed that Anderson has been available for pretty much all the season! But I’ve also noticed who jumps out of a lot of tackles, he’s not interested in running into obvious danger like Wilshire has spent his whole career doing. Maybe our players need to protect themselves better?

When you buy players like Yarmolenko, Wilshere, Carroll - You can kind of see it a mile off that you will have injury issues.
We seem to have reverted to the team that started the season. How do you play two upfront, leaving 2 v 5 scenario in midfield ? It's quite frankly criminal. If I was the Wolves manager - I would've watched West Ham over the last few weeks and targeted Masuaka - which is exactly what they did.
How do you not change things when it's quite clear we're getting overrun in the middle of the park?
It's the same shit, different season. The hard work of the previous 12 weeks gone to pot - If we're not careful, we could properly slump here and get sucked in. We know how it goes - few more bad results - crowd go on the turn (rightly so) - nerves get into the players, they begin to hide (even more than they are now) and before you know it, we're sucked into to a relegation battle.
