- Thu, 30 Mar 2023 23:01:06 +0000: Premier League: 10 things to look out for this weekend - West Ham United | The Guardian
Liverpool need to close gap on former title rivals, Jesus key for Arsenal and Hodgson returns for relegation six-pointer
Over four seasons, there was a total of one Premier League point between them. This season there are 19 points between Manchester City and Liverpool. City still don’t have things their own way: Erling Haaland’s presence remains a double-edged sword. Without Haaland’s goals, Arsenal would be on a title victory lap while with the Norwegian – an injury doubt for Saturday’s match – City have never quite hit the fluency shown when they were duking it out with Liverpool over those years. By contrast Jürgen Klopp’s problems run rather deeper than implanting a guaranteed goal machine. Virgil van Dijk was criticised this week by the Dutch legends Ruud Gullit and Marco van Basten for his leadership style. And even though Stefan Bajcetic is only 18, losing him for the season was a blow. Liverpool, though, retain significant danger, as Manchester United found out, and as Guardiola recognised after losing 1-0 at Anfield in October to a Mo Salah strike. John Brewin

While too much time is spent on 1966 and all that Matthew Lorenzo’s profile draws out a hitherto unseen vulnerable side to the striker turned insurance salesman
The current flood of football documentaries shows no sign of abating; the recognition certain teams and individuals enjoy means that it’s not likely to any time soon. Geoff Hurst, the hat-trick hero of the 1966 World Cup final, is no doubt a natural subject for the “legacy” strand of these things: along with the likes of Jack Charlton, Bobby Moore and Bobby Robson, Hurst stands for a misty-eyed idea of Proper Football, when men were gods on the pitch and ordinary semi-dwelling blokes off it.
Hurst was all this and more, even if this profile focuses, football-wise at least, on that three-goal game at the expense of almost everything else. (Though that title might need a bit of nudging since Kylian Mbappé pulled off the same feat in 2022.) A rollcall of greats line up to heap praise on his sterling work against West Germany, with Gary Lineker (his nearest equivalent) being particularly enlightening on how Hurst exemplified the striker’s art – it’s all about “percentages”.

- West Ham defeat AEK Larnaca 6-0 on aggregate after 4-0 win
- Teenager Divin Mubama scores first goal for club
Goals from Gianluca Scamacca, Jarrod Bowen and the teenager Divin Mubama made it a perfect 10 wins out of 10 for West Ham in the Europa Conference League. The Hammers put their domestic struggles to one side to sweep past the Cypriot side AEK Larnaca 4-0 at the London Stadium, and 6-0 on aggregate, to reach the quarter-finals.
Scamacca, West Ham’s £35m summer signing who has struggled in the Premier League, was handed his chance in attack with Michail Antonio out injured. The Italian’s scuffed effort squirmed through the grasp of the goalkeeper Kenan Piric to give West Ham the lead before the visitors were reduced to 10 men just before half-time.

Jadon Sancho struggles in new role, Amadou Onana impresses for Everton and West Ham unsure how to use Gianluca Scamacca
Fulham were meek against Arsenal: they looked timid and small from the opening moments, the surprise entirely minimal when their visitors put the outcome beyond doubt so quickly. Their tilt at Europe is fizzling out although that should not diminish the excellent work Marco Silva has done in ensuring they do not yo-yo down to the Championship yet again. They badly missed the suspended João Palhinha: he has missed four games in all competitions this season and Fulham have lost all four, conceding 12 goals. Fulham played a blinder in landing him from Sporting and their drop-off without him is a reminder it will take some time for them to amass the depth of quality that will mitigate such absences. On Sunday, they were unable to get any grip in midfield. At least their next four league games are against relegation contenders: if Palhinha returns with the influence he wielded previously, they can still lever themselves back into the top-six conversation.

West Ham did not look like a team who are about to embark on a triumphant march to safety. The boos at full‑time said it all. Nobody regarded inching out of the relegation zone as reason for celebration and, while this performance represented an improvement on the collapse against Brighton last weekend, it was not enough to quell the crowd’s rising discontent with David Moyes’s management.
For Moyes there were positives to be gleaned from his side recovering after falling behind to Ollie Watkins’s sixth goal in seven games for Aston Villa. West Ham summoned resilience, equalising through Saïd Benrahma’s penalty, and felt they had enough chances. Benrahma went close four times during a tight second half. Pablo Fornals shot over. Maxwel Cornet offered hope in his brief cameo, although the forward could do with reading up on the offside law before his next appearance.
