Let's be honest though. Unless you're Spurs Liverpool, Chavs or for some reason Southampton there's little to no hope of making a comeback against City."Once City had seen off West Ham's early efforts they dominated possession and won with so much to spare that there were thousands of empty seats in London Stadium long before the final whistle". BBC.
FFS. They were losing by 2 goals, not 3 or 4. But still thousands fucked off well before the end.
I'm feeling a wave of nostalgia wash over me, so just for old times sake I'm gonna post the greatest, most insightful article ever written on West Ham by a genius football "Journalist", he's been ahead of the curve with his analytical outlook on the game, not surpassed by anyone.
May I present to you Mr Adrian Durham...............
West Ham have the players, the fan base and a new stadium... they can be England's best team for the next 10 years | Daily Mail Online
"I’m going to make a bold prediction. West Ham will be the top team of the next decade. In England, and across Europe".
"James Tomkins may not be a stopper like Pepe, but he’s one of the most cultured ball-playing central defenders in the Premier League".
To be fair to him, West Ham are a lot better than they were and two seasons on the bounce for European football is very good going for them.Article dated Dec 2014.......... There's 2 years left..... It can still happen.
Amirite?

Sure, they aren't world beaters and aren't likely to be any time soon but they seem to be in much better shape than Man United at present.
