They did less threatening than us all game.Formation against West Ham was definitely baffling. Rose, Walker and Dembele all nullified by our own tactic and those three are some of our most important players.
What helped us was the fact that Bilic decided to go defensive and play 5 at the back when he went ahead and then decided to take Payet off. That cost them the game.
Lloris was a spectator. Playing 2 up front didn't help. Dembele played far too deep too, force of habit.
We needed someone to stretch their back 3 Janssen, Kane, Dembele or Eriksen were not doing that. We also needed to play quick, one two touch. We are tending to hold the ball too long.
When you looked at us you saw Reid behind Kane and Ogbonna behind Janssen. Both ready to receive the ball back to goal.
WBA have done what they did, very rarely did they have less than 9 behind the ball.
