Jimmy Walker has slammed the tactics of David Moyes and says West Ham star Jarrod Bowen is being wasted as a striker.
Forget being bored to tears, West Ham fans were bored to jeers as they watched another drab performance in the 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace.
Over 60,000 supporters packed out the London Stadium despite the poor weather and yet more rail strikes.
And many left David Moyes in no doubt how much they value entertainment by booing the Hammers off at full-time.

But it’s not just supporters who are bored of what they’re watching from West Ham.
One Hammers cult hero was not biting his tongue on social media either.
Jimmy Walker has slammed Moyes’ tactics and says West Ham star Jarrod Bowen is being wasted as a striker.
Taking to X, Walker used some colourful language to criticise West Ham’s slow play.
And he was baffled by Moyes persisting with Bowen up front when he is one of the best players in the Premier League off the right.
Cult hero says Bowen wasted as striker
“Not sure if it’s the beers or the TV but everything is so f——g slow,” Walker said on X
“Raise it and move the ball 10% quicker it’s a comfy win.
“Bowen is a shadow of the player down the middle, one of the best on the right, the boy Kudus can play anywhere – you do the math.”
Walker’s assessment will strike a chord with any West Ham fans who sat through another torturously tepid display.
There are no clear patterns of play going forward. The tactics at the moment seem to be ‘give it to Mohammed Kudus or Lucas Paqueta and hope for the best’.
West Ham are also developing a maddening habit of going long when they have the diminutive Bowen up front.
And don’t even get West Ham fans started on Moyes’ substitutions – or lack of them.
Things will have to improve markedly when West Ham travel to bitter rivals Spurs in midweek.
