What formation? Mon, 11 Jul 2011 17:46:49 +0000 http://www.westhamtillidie.com/2011/07/09/happy-birthday-paolo/#IDComment172357899 http://www.westhamtillidie.com/2011/07/09/happy-birthday-paolo/#IDComment172354900 I agree. We're not going to count on LBM to win matches, but he's got plenty of talent to contribute. He just needs a swift kick in whatever it is that drives him. Same with most of the other players. The "Grant Effect" is still working its way (hopefully) out of the squad. Mon, 11 Jul 2011 17:36:42 +0000 http://www.westhamtillidie.com/2011/07/09/happy-birthday-paolo/#IDComment172354900 http://www.westhamtillidie.com/2011/07/09/happy-birthday-paolo/#IDComment172352109 Here's what to read into that: Sam slaps the armband on LBM tonight with the youngsters and tells him either sink or swim. If he wants all the playing time he moans about not getting, he must earn it, and it starts today. LBM has to understand that he's a veteran player and is expected to provide some sort of leadership (that he hasn't ever shown). Sam is just sending that message. I think it's a brilliant piece of motivation.

If nothing else, I see us making a nice profit on him from one of the bigger clubs in the future.

We have no answer defensively at right back. We've been terrorized two weeks in a row by the likes of Mark Albrighton and Lee Chung Yong. Combine that with the fact that we couldn't hold the ball in our own half with an armored truck and you start to see why we look so pathetic.
