Gotta say it the things I've been pissed off with the most have been team selections. The style of football has been generally good. So I didn't agree with Franco starting at Sunderland - he scores. I didn't agree with Hines replacing Cole as I thought Diamanti would have been the more solid substitution - Hines wins a penalty and scores a goal. I think Zola knows this game a lot better than we do - time to get behind him and hope now we start propelling ourselves up the table.

Amazing what a win does for perspective. I agree Dave

How much better is it when we win?

Sorry but ill still be the negative one - ONE game doesnt make him the MESSIAH again.Well done for this result now you have to follow it up with more good managing without Cole and Illunga.

Wish Curbs had the same backing..................... ;-)

You, me and the Board!

We were more anti Curbs style of play. There is no doubt we are trying to play a more free flowing style of football which is great to watch when it works, but can often backfire when a team lacks confidence, which I think has been the missing ingredient over the last month or so.

Hopefully this win will do the trick, but I agree we need to start winning consistently before we heap parise on GZ.

Not heaping praise just saying the negativity of the fans is not doing our cause any good and that every west ham fan (including myself) thinks they know best. Still would like to see more of Diamanti though ;) :lol:
