Last season at the six game point, we had a goal difference of plus six after scoring 13 goals and conceding just seven, four of them on one game against Bournemouth.
This season is a complete reverse scoring seven goals but conceded 13 leaving us on a goal difference of minus six. Today is West Ham’s sixth game of the Premier League season, a win today could take us as high as 14th leap-frogging opponents Southampton who sit on five points after five games conceding six goals but scoring just four.
There is no need for panic just yet, it is not a cup final as the board has suggested and it is not a ‘save our season’ match that the owners like to call them but we do need to kick start our season soon to start gaining some momentum.
