“I think it’s the first penalty he’s ever taken, certainly in England, he never took them at Tottenham, but this is going to add to his tally”.

West Ham’s poor run of form this season equates to the club’s worst start to a Premier League season since they were relegated in 2010/11.
“I am the manager and have to do everything to turn this around and solve that problem”.

Careering from one calamity to another, amid security issues at the London Stadium and increasingly desperate form on the pitch, this was not how the future was envisaged when they left Upton Park last season. Instead pressure builds on his opposite number, Slaven Bilic, who admitted feeling embarrassed at half-time, and said: “We are weak and we have a problem”. I don’t want to be the one that hides behind unluckiness or individual mistakes. I don’t think you can say that anyone in a Tony Pulis team doesn’t work his socks off, week in and week out. We have a problem. It is no time to panic but we have to act. I don’t want us to react, I want us to act.
“We need to be aware of the situation and I don’t want to sound pessimistic, but I am and I have to live with this 24/7”. It was not a chance but the ball was put across our goal, very dangerously.
“You have to praise the opponent, of course, for what they are doing with the ball, and we could talk about Rondon’s quality, or whoever, but it was also down to my players and at the moment we are not doing the basic things that were at the cornerstone of what we did past year”. West Ham then contrived to leak a goal from their own corner kick, as the home side raced upfield on the counter with no West Ham defenders in sight and Chadli scored his fourth.
West Ham made the scoreline slightly more respectable on goals from Michail Antonio and Manuel Lanzini, whose penalty looked to have given the Hammers a glimpse at an unlikely point, but West Brom was able to hold firm to pick up the win.
Seven days on, a rousing ovation greeted the final whistle of a remarkable game in which West Brom were 4-0 up inside 55 minutes.
Kemp then went on to praise club-record signing Chadli following his two goals and two assists.

“He’s a terrific talent and when you’ve got people like Chadli around him, hopefully you’ll get the reward from that”. “You mustn’t get too carried away with a win and you can’t get too despondent if you lose”.
