West Ham United's 2013/2014 season has been a mix of good and bad, but unfortunately for us, more of the later. We started the season well, a surprising solid defence but as one might have expected, with Andy Carroll out injured, we struggled to score. After 10 games we had only conceded 8, this was less than Arsenal, Manchester City & Liverpool at the time, the only problem was city had scored 28 goals, 20 more than West Ham.In fact there was only 4 teams with less goals than us. The bottom four teams in the Premier League.
Our season has only become gloomier since then. we have only won 2 games since. We suffered a string of several heavy losses, the worst of which cam against Manchester City in the Semi-Final of the Capital One Cup. A highlight of our season has been our success in the league cup but something tells me we wont progress into the final. The deficit seems just a tad too large to over come but who knows..? We do Have the home advantage. Our run in the F.A cup was not so fruitful. We were defeated 5-0 to the high-flying Championship team Nottingham Forest.
Ravel Morrison has been one of the few high points in our season. The young English central midfielder took the Premier League by storm after a possible goal of the season against our rivals Tottenham. Winston Reid has also had an amazing season. he was a the rock in our defence and led to our lack of goals conceded. Unfortunately he suffered a bad injury and hasn't played since.
After a huge win against Cardiff City our season is looking up again and with the return of big Andy Carroll hopefully we will start scoring once again. A win against Newcastle United on the weekend could bring us up to fourteenth or fifteenth!

He's Back!
