Adam Daber 🐝☮️🇺🇦 🇾🇪

Worth noting too that the whole squad is adjusting to a change of tactics and demands under Fletcher and now Carrick, very different to Amorin's plans.

Rest in terms of starting on the bench because he's not hitting previous highs rather than total rest but remember that a lot of the guys play international football too - and Amad and Mbeumo came off the back of a month at AFCON.

He could make a big impact coming on from around the hour mark.

My own opinion and that of those who have responded is that Amad should be the one to drop to the bench, not having hit the heights of his Pre-AFCON form but I'd agree that Mbeumo's minutes need to be carefully monitored.

Cunha and Sesko have both started on the bench under Carrick so far so I'm sure that rotation is part of his plans, freshening things up when needed and to suit the opposition. Maybe now is the time to give Amad a rest - and carefully monitor Mbeumo's minutes.

Agreed, nice to have a positive to play around with but Amad might benefit from a rest on the bench for a game or two, coming on to make an impact. Obviously it will depend on opposition and availability.

That's what I'd do.

😆

Yes, I'd agree with that, not quite hit the levels of the pre-AFCON Amad.

Steady, that might be stretching it a little. I'm not that generous! 🤣

I think that's the most likely at the moment, not quite captured his pre-AFCON form.

Football is a game of opinions. I think you're being a little harsh, you think I'm being a little generous. We'll respectfully agree to differ.

Now I'm off to find a fish in need of a bicycle! 🤣

Quite a few posts saying that Sesko deserves to start the next game. I'm not disagreeing, just asking whom he should replace?

I feared a little for his future when he was benched for Carrick's first couple of games after scoring 3 in 2 under Fletcher. Pleased that's not the case.

Add the stadium fiasco to that too thanks to Boris and the Sullivan - Gold ownership.

Had some good players and managers over the decades.

Yes, thought it could be tricky so to rescue a point at the death was good. We deserved something from the game.

The Inter-city gang was one of the worst, then there's the Tevez - Mascherano(?) affair to dodge relegation, di Canio's(?) questionable antics and political views etc.

Hit a bit of form at the wrong time from our perspective.

I loathe the Hammers from way back when so I'm disappointed not to have nabbed all 3 points tonight. Spoiling tactics nearly paid off big time for them.

I don't think he's useless and neither did I see him as the troublemaker Ruben labelled him as. He had some reasonable games but suffered a few injuries too so never had a lengthy run.

I'd probably put him in the same bracket as someone like Wan Bissaka.

I obviously rate him a little higher than you do. 😆

There are sayings here:
about as useful as a chocolate fireguard
about as welcome as a f*rt in a spacesuit

Thise analogies would be a bit harsh imo! 😂

Headers on the brain!!! 😱🤣

You'd think I should know the difference between a head and a foot by now.

It ends all square. 1 - 1

Mbeumo cross and Sesko buries the header deep into added time. 1 - 1

Zirkzee header just wide from a Bruno cross.

Zirkzee on for Dalot.

Yoro for Maguire, Sesko for Cunha.

VAR disallow it for offside. Bastards!!!

Casemiro nods it in for the equaliser.

That's not the start to the 2nd half that I had in mind. 1 - 0

Oh no!!!

Stalemate at the break.
