West Ham 2-1 Rovers
Our abysmal record at Upton Park continued, no thanks to some shocking defending.
It seems that the solid back-four we had at the start of the season, has not only lost its ability to perform as a unit, but has seen individuals become complacent.
Samba’s defending for Dean Ashton’s strike summed up his defending in the past couple of months, lacking in concentration and discipline. At the moment picking our best centre-half pairing is a difficult job, considering there are no candidates covering themselves in glory.
We can only be grateful that Santa Cruz has continued his fine goalscoring record, particuarly away from home. Intertoto hopes are fading fast, a win against Wigan is now a must.
