'One of West Ham's most turgid performances'

West Ham fans have witnessed some dross over the years at the London Stadium but that defeat against Crystal Palace has to be up there with one of the most turgid performances from their side.

It shows you just how big a job Graham Potter has on his hands to revitalise the club and how much they are missing Jarrod Bowen's creativity.

West Ham offered diddly-squat going forward - for the second time this season, failing to record a shot on target in a Premier League home game - with Lukasz Fabianski and the back three experiment not doing them any favours either.

Yes, they've got some breathing space to the relegation zone but back to back away trips to Aston Villa and Potter's old stomping ground Stamford Bridge could ramp up the heat, with the three points they were gifted by Fulham perhaps papering over some serious cracks in East London.
