That's more like it, isn't it!?

After weeks of talk surrounding David Moyes' negative style of play, which had stopped getting results, West Ham turned up at London Stadium on Monday night and put on a bit of a show. It wasn't perfect, not by any stretch, but we scored four goals and overall looked like we wanted to have a go at playing football for the first time in 2024. Every time we got the ball we looked like we wanted to make something happen, while out of possession we pressed well and put Brentford under pressure. That's the approach we've been crying out for!

It was a much-needed victory and it puts us back in contention for a top-eight finish and potentially a fourth consecutive European qualification. If we play like we did against Brentford for the remainder of the season, we've got a huge chance of achieving what we were hoping for in the first-half of the campaign.

Obviously, it appears that will likely rest on the fitness of Lucas Paqueta, who makes things tick in this team. It's no surprise we've failed to win a single game this season in which he hasn't featured.

This week, we discuss the overall performance on Monday night, react to comments from listeners on the socials and then look ahead to the trip to Everton on Sunday.

Also, we mentioned in the podcast that we both completed the London Winter Run 10k in support of Cancer Research last weekend.
