OK I have had nearly 24 hours to calm down and I can't The physical effort particularly in the first half was abysmal I put this down to the Goalkeeper we were nervous to start a day then he gives away a Penalty confidence dives and we lose our head note that although Hart saved it he pushed it straight back into play

GOAL 2 was just as bad as the cross was missed by all of the defenders except 1 who deflected albeit slightly into the path of a galvanised Rooney who simply ran past the midfield and put into the net with Hart as usual rooted to his line

GOAL 3 was a pure farce because Hart eventually came off his line and instead of hoofing into the stand gave it straight to Rooney who scores his first hat trick for 6 years If I had been a neutral I would have laughed my he's off in fact I did laugh but more in frustration

GOAL 4 by now I a tally felt sorry for Rice and Antonio because well because I just did

I have posted all season that Hart is the main problem 30 goals let in and I am sure no confidence in him from the defence

If I have a criticism of Moyes it's that he didn't give Adrian a start last night especially as Hart can't play Sunday City being his home club.

So with all the tine and analysis bearing in mind where we are is not based on one game, what's your assessment and who is to blame without war and piece?

Hi Zippy thanks for your comments to my post.

I have had doubts about Hart all season but that's not the only problem injuries haven't helped Collins Reed and Fonte have all been out for various periods of time this Season I was at Wycombe Tuesday for the U23 game and Collins started but sadly only lasted 20 mins so would guess he's going to be out for a bit longer

We definitely look better with a back 3 but have hardly played that way all season Bilics lack of faith in the younger players over the years Oxford Rice Samuelson etc means the team is getting older and slower Noble Kouauyte and Obiang seem to be lacking in pace and ideas and without Carroll on form and Antonio being injured - Palace game apart - he does make a difference inconsistency of Ayew who was starting to look better and Chicarrito when he is able to poach a goal has made a difference

I am trying to remember what the difference was with the team when we beat Spurs but there have been so many disappointments since I'm having trouble

That's my feelings what do you think.

i'm not trying to say i'm always right ( because i ain't ) but i said hart is finished as a prem keeper his confidence was shattered when pep said bye bye ( what a judge ) and once again i was slaughtered same as arnautovic and snodgrass last year our buys have been laughable lanzini apart who's confidence is spent cresswell ( england do me a favour) we need a complete overhaul and i'm sorry to say but that's in the championship because we need a miracle to stay up and what player in their right mind would come to west ham in this present state ( unless money talks probably end up with washed up players like zabaletta, arbeloa, hart, fonte, etc, etc, etc i really really fear for the future of west ham under current owners unless they walk away which they won't
