Terrible game.
Hughes to blame though, the team selection was inviting that kind of performance.

Poor selection from the off, we needed pace and to move the ball quickly

Arnautovic doesn't do much to confound his critics. That free kick, at 1 down with minutes left was abysmal. It really was truly shite. Then he tracked back and gave away a stupid foul. For such a talented player he really does make it hard for anyone to actually like him

Fucking disgraceful display that, Adam, Whelan, N Zonzi, Crouch, Walters were ALL WANK ALL GAME, how can they pick up their wages after that, so so bad embarrassed.

2 shots on target all game, not good enough at all!
Bitter, bitter taste in my mouth but we were awful and deserved nothing else today unfortunately. Not the end of the world but disappointing none the less!
A response needed

Poor game but as expected when the team was announced, lacked pace, no point starting Adam unless he has pace in front of him. Shawcross was understandably rusty and sadly Moses went missing as did Nzonzi.

If masterminded means scored early doors and shut up shop against a shit performing side then yes he masterminded it.

Puts how good we've been since December into perspective for me.
Bad performance but they happen.

Collective off day, any cohesion we had banjaxed by more bloody injuries. I'd have taken a point beforehand, we can't just keep running on an almost empty squad. Particularly galling given the opponents and their manager, but at least West Ham got stuffed by more than us, and no-one got sent off. Any other positives? Can't think of any right now. Still Vis Unita Fortior and all that.

Crikey glad I only caught the last 20 minutes of that. Barely strung 3 passes together and must have conceded a dozen free kicks in that time.
Oh well write it off and wait for us to do the double on the bastards when normal service resumes next year.

Seems like some of the players might have been a bit scared of facing Pulis and his team.
If anyone was going to end our recent streak, it was going to be him. Let's face it, we know what he and his teams are capable of and we should have been better prepared.
Never mind.

Walters being subbed took the impetus out of our only good spell Dunno, think we've been shit all game whether he was on or off the pitch. Didn't you see the 5 minutes leading up to his injury? Our only good spell, where we were building up some momentum..

We did this to better sides for nearly a decade, is anyone really surprised that TP is capable of reducing the opposition to scraps ?
On to Palace...

There are lots of people saying Hughes has got this one wrong from the off, but what do you feel he should have done differently? Our problem was giving a Tony Pulis team a goal to defend quite early on; a terrible mistake from Bardsley. Surely we know better than most how difficult it is to break them down in these situations. WBA team sat deep, so suggesting we should not have had our two best headers of the ball in Walters and Crouch on the pitch seems weird. Diouf starting would have been even worse than the decision to bring him on. As for Moses, he needs to understand he should use his pace to go down the line WAY more and to cut in FAR less - Arnie made us a slightly better attacking team today. WBA only sat deep 2nd half, you're rewriting history. 1st half they were on the front foot almost the whole 45 mins. Having "our two best headers of the ball on the pitch" was ideal for Pulis, we needed pace and look to get in behind them. My view at 2 o'clock was our front four should have been Diouf, Moses, Walters, Arnie. But Arnie hasn't been great this season so understandable he didn't start

False position What a cock. Glad I'm not the only one, would love to know how it's false. Simple really. Before today's result, they've huffed and puffed their way to four wins and one draw in their last seven P L games, playing piss poor teams.

Well he is clueless then. Looked a penalty to me. But what do I know, I'm pissed I am not really arguing that it wasnt a penalty. i wouldnt have given it but i accept there was contact and many refs would have given it. i am just having a dig at those commentators spouting hyperbole. Suggestions that Cameron took him out or that it was the most obvious, blatant penalty ever seen are over the top.

For a TP team i thought they were rather adventurous.Better than us in every way today.These things happen. As someone mentioned earlier,wehave been punching above our weight for a while now. This was a correction. Take it on the chin and move on.
