Fantastic football and energy.

Jones, Gomez and Elliott were standout performers, thought Kostas was also very good (really don't get the people criticising him at half time)

The only negative thing you could have said about Tsimikas first half was he mis controlled a couple of balls, but that's the only thing he did wrong.

Brilliant result. Dominated the game, and hopefully a good confidence booster for Arsenal at the weekend.

Gravenberch is very talented but right now he isn't in sync with the rest of the team especially out of possession.

Yeah I like him but he's not fitting into the system for whatever reason. He'll get there and can make a big impact in games off the bench in the interim.

Great performance but West Ham were poor. The key thing was that we scored and then relaxed (in a good way).

Jones and Elliott played well. Quansah was a bit unlucky with the goal but he should be stronger……..it’s a good reminder that small mistakes can lead to goals.

When you see Mo sprinting through the middle bearing down on the keeper then you know he will score. Absolute class.

Loved seeing that group of Academy lads (plus Harvey!) finish that game, like a step ladder of experience, from Connor, to Quansah, to Harvey, to Jones, to Trent. A lot of quality in that group.

Really enjoyable performance, encouraging ahead of a big game.

Virgil and Quansah are a lovely pairing. Kelleher with a really assured display. Elliott - he's unfortunate that he's got Salah and Szobo playing in his positions because he was excellent again.

True. They happened early on and I noticed that and feared this was going to be the norm, but he steadied himself and made some vital interceptions and did well afterwards.

Coulda done with it on the weekend though, Rushie.
Oh definitely - credit to those twats though - they came for a point and setup like prime Stoke then stuck it out and got some luck too.
I'm still convinced that if we scored 1 we would have opened the floodgates.
Ah well, hopefully this is a good rehearsal for the game against Arsenal

Some of the defending from West Ham was atrocious, countless times we just waltzed through centrally into shooting positions.

Will take that, another semi and a nice way to get the confidence up prior to the big game on Saturday.
