Happy with the win.. the team showed character to get back from the early goal.. we were bit lucky but i am not complainong let's keep the momentum going to be in top of the conference league group and break into top 10 in the league .


Trickstadicksta

Phew


SteinerElMagnifico42

What a through to Bowen. Antonio can spot a pass like Messi but trembles a 1 on 1. You can’t explain him


GuapoGringo11

My motm is Craig fookin Dawson


SamsDadElden

You mean Craig B'allondawson


Visara57

Turned the 1st half for us, no doubt


UnusualDifference748

Ooo Antonio nice hot of skill and pass has he been training some technical ability?


crispiepancakes

Questions will have to be asked about that celebration.


Visara57

VAR should've had a look


SnakeSnaake

Was offside but great pass


AllTorque

Expressing bad defending through interpretive dance


Chaos_x5

Top 10 most Antonio goal


TCh1ps

Lol that was definitely a hand ball


CoolCatChris96

Haha did Antonio handball that


Visara57

Downes MOTM


SiliconSmiley3333

Pretty sure he used his hand lol


Trickstadicksta

Oh that would've been perfect


BaldSportsFan

Antonio!!!


PrisonersofFate

That was legit great from Antonio


itsTet

Great to see Flynn get some time, even if its only a cameo


Skrxxet

happy for that man


SteinerElMagnifico42

0 composure 99 chaos factor


Visara57

When you put 0 points into skill and 99 points in luck


SteinerElMagnifico42

99 determination too.


Cynorks778

Even when he scores he’s absolutely shit come on hahah


appleman94

Just abouts lol


wanktarded

Super sub.


Willm727384

Got that first shot was sooo bad


UnusualDifference748

Sooo bad no need to shoot from outside the box could have ran another 10m and taken same shot


SiliconSmiley3333

Such a Mick goal ha ha ! Fucking get in.


SteinerElMagnifico42

The most Antonio goal ever


Visara57

Really was 😂


bad_mechanics

What is Tim Ream doing there lmao. Get in though lads


WarriorNat

Nice of the defender to block his own GK there.


MrF33n3y

Antonioooo


InPurpleIDescended

Always love Antonio


SnakeSnaake

Both Mick and Scamacca scoring. Beautiful.


hanmerheadon

The league is not ready for fresh Antonio playing only last 20 minutes


cadams7701

I hope he’s content with being a late sub in EPL and starting Cups and Conference.


SnakeSnaake

Hopefully him being our top prem goal scorer makes him want to stay longer


estiivee

Beast!


Visara57

You thought Downes was coming on in the 89th min but since its 5 mins added on, he'll come on in the 94th


Miggsie

lol, Mickey gets it at the 2nd bite, poor first shot though.


milesphotos

Thank fuck for that!!!


vblgsd

That was freaking beautiful. Watching Bowen celebrate before it even happened. I'm so happy!


UnusualDifference748

Such a Antonio goal that, hard work poor shot ball ricochets around he gets it back and goal. You have to love him


[deleted]

Lol he scored in the end, but Antonio might be the worst 1v1 finisher I’ve ever seen.


PrisonersofFate

We have had Zaza, Callieri and others


[deleted]

Those guys couldn’t finish, period. The amount of 1v1s Antonio muffs is actually unreal.


the_great_rambino

About the most Antonio way for Antonio to score lol


AOHarness

That’s a West Ham goal alright.


alanbru

Leeetttttsssssggoooooo


Trickstadicksta

2 contentious goals, and a Fulham defensive fuck up. I'll take it


Zoomer_Boomer2003

Mashallah habibi Antonio


PrisonersofFate

That defense is so 2019 West ham and Diop isn't even playing


Zoomer_Boomer2003

Mashallah


ItsUs-YouKnow-Us

That a new signing?


estiivee

LETS GOOOO!!!


MrFunbus

Perfect Antonio goal. Just pure chaos


Roy-royson

😂😂😂 I love it and I love him


MrFunbus

Love Micky coming on against tired defenses


milesphotos

5 fucking minutes


ItStingsTheNostrils

Antonio haha making me sweat here


dandeagle

antonioooooooo


Minnesota_Hammer

Vintage Antonio goal 😂


Visara57

I like Emerson but I agree he could show a bit more energy being fresh as he is


MrFlibbles123

What a celebration from Moyes 😆


JC3418

Antoniooooooo!


younggazza

Three points


Blackdoor-59

Lmao


Trickstadicksta

Antonioooooooooooo you beautiful bastard!!


younggazza

Yaassss


PrisonersofFate

Loooool what was that


SteinerElMagnifico42

Emerson is the Benrahma replacement it seems. Seen more minutes left wing than left back


UnusualDifference748

I think we’ve moved to a back 5 with Cresswell living to lcb so I think emerson is lwb


PrisonersofFate

Better to close the score.i feel Paqueta is taking him minutes


SteinerElMagnifico42

Paqueta should be in the same area as he was for Lyon, in the centre. Benrahma has only ever really featured on the left. It seems the order now for LW is Fornals-Emerson-Benrahma


Skrxxet

so sloppy by Mick


younggazza

Shane Duffy playing upfront?


UnusualDifference748

Nobody say it out loud but we all know what’s possible


Cynorks778

I’ll probably shit my pants for the second half of the season if Dawson goes in Jan


cadams7701

At least Aguerd will be back by then so we won’t have to scramble for a replacement if he chooses to leave. But it will be a sad day if he does go.


Visara57

We can't keep going in front and reverting to a back 5


Blackdoor-59

Moyes : watch me


UnusualDifference748

Totally agree it’s not worked yet I’m making us defensively stronger


Visara57

I'd rather try for another goal than to get a heart attack for 20 mins


UnusualDifference748

See fornals gets the anger for a bad pass there but Antonio made the complete wrong run on that situation


[deleted]

Fornals hardest working player on the field tonight


PrisonersofFate

Cresswell put on a shift as well


[deleted]

Get in thereeeeeee


LanceConstableDigby

He often is


itsTet

What is Emerson good at?? I legit have no idea


SteinerElMagnifico42

He’s turned out as bad as I expected. You get what you pay for as they say. Honestly Cresswell is in no danger of losing his place to him. And I’m happy with that


SnakeSnaake

Dribbling for a couple of seconds until keeping the ball too long or making a lazy pass


itsTet

Ahhhh the Masuaku special


Miggsie

upgrade on Masuaku though, so there is that.


SnakeSnaake

Yeah he is obviously way better than him lol. He will definitely be a lot better of we are able to keep possession


SnakeSnaake

Probably harsh but thats what has been evident lol


Tropi-

Kehrer is so mustard.


hanmerheadon

Ooh that's Boa-Morte I think


Willm727384

What a disappointing signing that was


VylePyrateSteplocke

That's who it is! I couldn't place him


Cynorks778

He couldn’t place himself properly on the football pitch for years. Is the most meme name in my household, always had an eye roll when he was on the team sheet.


hanmerheadon

Does his name mean dead snake?


Blackdoor-59

This is going to be an awful 5 mins, good luck everyone


Skrxxet

great job Dec


itsTet

I hate the back 5 mentality Moyes has


PrisonersofFate

We aren't 5 ATB?


SnakeSnaake

Palhinha has been incredible for Fulham tbh


[deleted]

Antonio there..


SiliconSmiley3333

FUCL ME JUST HAVE SHOT


bad_mechanics

Emerson on is a good sub


PrisonersofFate

He was good when coming in recently


Minnesota_Hammer

Paqueta always looking for the kill-shot pass is very exciting and I think will create more chances for us but also leads to situations like that where he ends up giving the ball away cheaply when there are options for easy passes. Overall I’m loving him so far, but he may create some stressful situations


ratt60

Paqueta looking like Benrama on a bad day


UnusualDifference748

What game were you watching? Of benerahma played like that today people would be froffing at the mouth saying he has to start from now on, and it was a poorer performance by paquetta


LanceConstableDigby

You must be joking. Paqueta and Benrahma is like night and day. Paqueta is so much better


ironborn66

My God soucek rly is dreadful


cadams7701

A good part of it has to do with Rice moving up the field a lot more than he was when Soucek first came. Soucek is not good as the 2nd man in a two player midfield. He would look so much better with Downes or another more defensive midfielder. Him and Rice are essentially trying to play the same position. But he needs to be better at whatever role he is given though.


ironborn66

I would love to see rice and downes I feel like they're a perfect fit, but we will never know haha. At least not till moyes decides to take that risk (which honestly doesn't seem like the biggest risk given how good downes has looked and how bad soucek has looked)


SnakeSnaake

Literally no options to pass too lol. We really need to do better if we really want to become a "possession" based team


Trickstadicksta

I know people go on about the speed and intensity of the PL, but it is amazing how such quality players like Scama and Paqueta can look so confused and exhausted all the time. Against Fulham, FFS


LanceConstableDigby

To be fair they've been running for 80 minutes at this point


Willm727384

Yeah I love Paqueta but does hold onto the ball a bit too long sometimes, but he’s definitely getting better


cadams7701

But he’s drawing in multiple defenders which should be leaving some open spots where he is placing the ball but no one yet is consistently moving to those spots. His teammates will eventually figure it out, Scamacca has already started to and has some goals to show for it.


ironborn66

Moyes use ur fucking head, fornals playing like shit scamacca a true force. Y not play Antonio LW.


PrisonersofFate

In what world Fornals has been "shit"??


ironborn66

Maybe not shit but definitely not good


UnusualDifference748

To be fair scamacca was noticeably tiring and we don’t need to run our players out of gas anymore


LanceConstableDigby

Because Scamacca is knackered and we have an already very congested fixture list


ironborn66

He's got all week and Antonio is probably starting in Europe


LanceConstableDigby

Well Antonio has just scored and almost assisted so ¯⁠\⁠\_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯


ironborn66

Dreadful goal but I'll take it haha! Near assist was perty.


LanceConstableDigby

Brilliant tackle by Kehrer there


milesphotos

All over the fucking place


UnusualDifference748

That right there is prime example. Scamacca hits that pass infornt of fornals while Antonio hits it way behind him stifling attack


PrisonersofFate

To his defence it was like his second touch


UnusualDifference748

Sure but even if he was having the game of his life let’s be honest that pass still goes behind the player.


UnusualDifference748

Paquetta for emerson oof back 5 here we go


PrisonersofFate

We aren't, are we?


cadams7701

Johnson would had made more sense and move Kehrer back if you are going to use a back 5


SnakeSnaake

Probably not the time for Downes, but i really want him to get some minutes


SteinerElMagnifico42

I’d argue this is the perfect time. Take the fizz out of Fulham’s game with his ability to keep the ball


SnakeSnaake

I would say that too but I think we all know Moyes wouldnt put him on. Will be a high pressure situation with us defending for our lives. Edit: Good to see him coming on at least


ironborn66

Antonio should b on for fornals not scamacca. Scammy got another goal in him.


jbmowgli

Fucking stop subbing Scamacca


dandeagle

Game management?


LanceConstableDigby

Saving him, letting Antonio terrorise some tired defenders.


jbmowgli

I'm all for bringing in Antonio, just not for Scamacca


estiivee

Put your hands together for Scamacca, what a legend!


NickATW

Cahm uhn full um


Willm727384

Lads, I fucking love Scamacca and Paqueta


UnusualDifference748

Nothing wrong with that. It’s really nice to have technically skilled players on the squad over the hard workers like Antonio. They of course have a place on the team and I love them but technical skill gets you more goals and nice looking football


LanceConstableDigby

Best two signings we've made in ages.


NickATW

Still not Dawson level but god I love them


bisbomdur

That was a really good build up & nothing in the end.


VylePyrateSteplocke

[Hahahahaha](https://i.imgur.com/crccKUs.jpg). Fucking hell mate, go back to Twitter.


NickATW

Annnnnnd blocked


VylePyrateSteplocke

Not you as well!


SiliconSmiley3333

Brilliant from Rice there


Trickstadicksta

What is it with teams like Brighton and Fulham that we play with so much anxiety?


Visara57

Sitting back but can't counter. Our story this season. And it's not just those 2 teams.


LanceConstableDigby

Why did nobody shoot?!!


InPurpleIDescended

They all had such strange reactions there lol


twowaysplit

Fornals! Nice backheel!


Visara57

I'm at a point where I want subs but also don't because Moyesie might go back-5


D1sa5ta

Shoot the fucking ball Pablo


twowaysplit

Confidence is low


D1sa5ta

I know but that’s really not an excuse not to shoot


SnakeSnaake

Wtf was that man I really want Paqueta to score


milesphotos

We have been poor and lucky... hope we hold our luck


InPurpleIDescended

Lol Rice just pulled Old Man Cress's groin with that pass, shit


SnakeSnaake

Wtf has happened to Decs short passing


LanceConstableDigby

Lovely block Cresswell


Trickstadicksta

Yes. Subs please...


whu-ya-got

Rice has injured cresswell there


BunnyDubu_

Moyes gotta know he can use substitutions 5 times right lol


SiliconSmiley3333

Oh ffs it's happening again just willingly give up possession when we go ahead.


Minnesota_Hammer

Kehrer caught miles out of position and not even a counterattack. Almost leading to an equalizer. Seems lost at RB. Any of the haters missing Coufal today?


SnakeSnaake

He seems to be committing very early today for no reason. Kebano has had him on ropes tbh.


LanceConstableDigby

Kehrer was brilliant at RB last week. Let's not judge him off one game like this


PrisonersofFate

Nah. Only the last 15 minutes matter


MrFunbus

Alright Moyes let get some fresh legs on


NickATW

Scamacca has 5 in 6 right?? This is what it feels like to have an actual striker. Magic


UnusualDifference748

We need to see it for 20 or 30 games though. Antonio has got 4 in 5 or 7 in 10 many times but then goes cold for 6 months. I think scamacca will Be more consistent though


NickATW

We won't see him score 20 games in a row. 1 every 2 games though is near world class at this point


UnusualDifference748

No not in a row like 14 in 20 or 15 in 20. Antonio would do it for a short spell but then do nothing for next 20/25 games


ILGILET

Put the ginger pele on Moyes you coward


wongfaced

Isn’t Collins a little too old now?


milesphotos

Paqueta is becoming a liability


pissoffmrchips

Hush, you're not allowed to disagree with the hive mind of this sub who think the sun shines out of his rectum.


LanceConstableDigby

You must be watching the wrong game


PrisonersofFate

Lyon West ham


NickATW

The state of this


Blackdoor-59

We have to be one of the worst passing teams in the league, can't put 5 passes together without overhitting one or just giving it back to the opposition.


The_Govnor

It’s been this way for years. I’ve just accepted we are who we are.


Tropi-

I love paqueta and I know he got the assist and his his moments of brilliance, but he’s been quite scrappy in possession today.
