Shearer calls West Ham embarrassing, hopeless, pathetic
Speaking as a pundit on BBC Sport’s Match of the Day, Shearer laid into the Hammers and their apparent lack of effort when it came to attacking or defended their newly-promoted opponents.
“You would think, coming into this game on the back of three defeats, at home, in front of your fans, you’d think a bit of fight, roll your sleeves up, show the fans you mean business,Whatever you want to say, whether it was embarrassing, hopeless, pathetic – use any of those words, you can pick any of them, and that would describe West Ham’s performance.
“How on earth are you going to score goals with no one in the middle? Have a look at the body language of West Ham.
“Walking. Jogging. No intensity, whatsoever. If you perform like this, you’re going to get nowhere.”
