Most points lost from winning positions

If I’m being honest, this stat alone should worry the board. It is a clear indication that the winning mentality is not there and goals are being leaked.

Twenty points. That’s ridiculous. Given a quick crude analysis, as in not taking into account who those dropped points benefitted, just taking 10 of those points would put us a point behind 8th placed West Brom. Ironically, West Brom were one of the sides who did benefit from us throwing away a winning position.

This should show everyone that the team capable of winning matches is there. However it really isn’t being gelled and structured correctly. It’s a similar phenomenon to what is happening at Arsenal, where all the skills seem to be there but the mentality is not.

This is deep rooted within the Hammers’ psyche and with Slaven Bilic at the helm it’s hard to shake that off. The easiest way to change this mindset is to get a new manager in.
