Stoke, West Ham finish 0-0 in EPL
I am not a player any more, so even if I’d had the operation after the game against Everton last weekend I would have been able to manage the team against Stoke tomorrow.
“I am pleased with the clean sheet”, Bilic said.
The Potters are chasing an unprecedented fourth successive top-10 finish in the Premier League and sit only one point and one place off that with four games left.
The visitors nearly came unstuck once more moments later when Marko Arnautovic found Xherdan Shaqiri free inside the area, leaving the Swiss worldwide to fire wide of the target without troubling Adrian. Some great reactions from their goalkeeper. Take advantage of your Football Faithful offer, you get a £20 free bet, when you bet £5. Apart from that we also came close many times with combinations in very risky areas.
That would change if we earn three points tomorrow and Swansea lose to Manchester United on Sunday as Paul Clement’s side could no longer catch us.
“There is a gap between us and mid-table, it is a small gap but with four games to go we are talking about 12 points and we have to concentrate on our next game”. “The big one was from [Marko] Arnautovic but offensively we played really good”.
And West Ham fans will be disappointed to see news of his disgruntlement, after becoming a fan favourite at the London Stadium this season.
“Last year we did something but we didn’t fill all the positions.We wanted to, but it’s not easy and it doesn’t depend on you”. All of Stoke’s last three wins have come at home against Hull, Boro and Palace respectively. “But we have no-one to blame that we didn’t score but ourselves”. We created four or five chances but the problem is that we didn’t score.
“We are not panicking, but none of the teams, until mathematically, are safe”. The Hammers are just a point behind Stoke, who need to pick up some points to ensure a trouble-free end to their campaign.
From there Stoke started to assert some dominance on the game, and Adrian was tested twice in quick succession, first tipping Xherdan Shaqiri’s dipping 30-yard effort over before springing to his right to turn Berahino’s fierce effort around the post. But we also know that we are playing Tottenham and Liverpool.
The injury sustianed against Leicester last month forced him to withdraw from England’s games against Germany and Lithuania, meaning he was denied his first cap.
“We still made chances”.
