English Premier League: West Ham season review – The Hammers got knocked around
There are too many to count. It should be the whole team hitting this list but some were far worse than others.
Both Adrian and the much-heralded Joe Hart have largely disappointed in-goal, and have made too many costly mistakes. Cheikhou Kouyate spent much of the season running around aimlessly, and was a shadow of his imperious 2015/16 self.
Michail Antonio, Winston Reid and Andy Carroll were largely anonymous on the pitch, which was only when they weren’t injured for large parts of the season. Jordan Hugill was a perplexing January signing that played a measly 23 ineffective minutes and cut a lonely figure on the bench.
Patrice Evra arrived shortly thereafter, and the fact that all his starts were marked by 4-1 losses says it all.

Verdict
A hugely disappointing season – at best a 4 or 5 out of 10.
