What do you expect in the modern game from your team Tim.
Virtually every manager makes subs near the end of a match..... Especially away from home to 1- kill a bit of time 2- put fresh legs on
The special one is renowned for it,closing the game down.
As I've said ive been impressed by West Ham this season , obviously I don't follow them as closely as you,but I wouldn't want to go into a must win game against them..... And it's been a good few years since I've said that !
Look at Everton,playing footy the beautiful way..... And struggling for points. They'd swop league positions with your lot at the drop of a hat
