Unbeaten Run Comes To An End
In Liverpool the Hammers‘ run of five games in which they have been unbeaten by their opponents (Wolves 2:0, Anderlecht 1:0, Fulham 3:1, Anderlecht 2:1 and Southampton 1:1) came to an end against the Reds.
The Irons missed a penalty through Jarrod Bowen at the end of the first half, and eventually lost 0-1 against Liverpool FC.
Although they didn’t play bad, the Hammers couldn’t find the back of the net and missed some good chances including a penalty which was saved by the Liverpool keeper. Scoring goals seems to be one of the main problems which David Moyes‘s team faces this season. In 11 Premier League games West Ham have only hit the target nine times, and they have already missed two out of three penalties in these games. We are missing Mark Noble who was a reliable penalty taker!
Next game is Bournemouth at home on Monday evening. Let’s hope that this match will see West Ham returning to winning ways in front of their home crowd at London Stadium. The following Thursday Silkeborg will visit London and West Ham could make sure that they will win their Conference League group if they remain unbeaten in this game.
nother couple of important games ahead! West Ham will play every three or four days until mid-November. From the 14th of November until December 26th the Premier League will pause for six weeks because of the World Cup in Qatar.
Scamacca finds target again
Having had to bide his time following his £32m move from Sassuolo in the summer, Scamacca now has six goals in 12 games for West Ham.
After netting against Wolves last weekend and the winner against Anderlecht on Thursday, the Italian was the Hammers’ main man once again against Fulham on Sunday scoring West Ham‘s 2-1. He showed his growing composure in front of goal with an audacious chip over Bernd Leno.
He could – perhaps should – have scored several more. Michail Antonio then got a third, and the Hammers won 3-1 and sealed an important win, their third victory in a row.

Home win lifts WHU out of relegation zone
West Ham arrived without a win in six home league matches, their worst run for more than 19 years, and Moyes was under pressure for the first time in his second spell at the club. Part of that has been down to his continued loyalty to players who previously served him well but have not been performing this season.
David Moyes’s side ground out only their second league win of the season with a gritty performance thanks to a brilliant goal from Gianluca Scamacca, who lifted the ball into the air and struck it into the corner.
Jarrod Bowen squeezed in a second before emerging from his celebrations with what appeared to be a dislocated finger. Moyes had handed Scamacca only a second league start just days after Roberto Mancini, the Italy manager, complained that his strikers were not playing. Scamacca played for 63 minutes and then was replaced by Antonio.
West Ham moved out of the relegation zone and will face Anderlecht away on the Thursday before Fulham will visit London Stadium next Sunday.

In Christ Alone My Hope Is Found
In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My comforter, my all in all
Here in the love of Christ I stand
In Christ alone who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
Till on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live
There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
No guilt in life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
Till He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand.

Football Postponed
All English and Northern Irish football and all professional Scottish football has been postponed this weekend as a mark of respect following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
More sporting events called off following death of Queen Elizabeth II
Psalm 90
1 Lord, you have been our dwelling place
throughout all generations.
2 Before the mountains were born
or you brought forth the whole world,
from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
3 You turn people back to dust,
saying, “Return to dust, you mortals.”
4 A thousand years in your sight
are like a day that has just gone by,
or like a watch in the night.
5 Yet you sweep people away in the sleep of death
they are like the new grass of the morning:
6 In the morning it springs up new,
but by evening it is dry and withered.
Jesus Christ was Her Anchor
Stephen Cottrell, Archbishop of York, in The Telegraph:
Queen Elizabeth II made no secret of the fact that the Christian faith and a disciplined life of duty and devotion were the source of her guidance and a constant solace. “For me,” she said, “the life of Jesus Christ, the prince of peace, is an inspiration and an anchor in my life. A role model of reconciliation and forgiveness, he stretched out his hands in love, acceptance and healing.”
It was Christ’s servant leadership which shaped her sovereignty.
Indeed, right until the end, when she invited the new Prime Minister to form a government, she was doing her duty. She broke into her summer holiday at Balmoral to give an audience, first with Boris Johnson as the outgoing prime minister, and then with Liz Truss, the 15th premier of her reign. We will treasure the photograph published then, which showed her at the age of 96, looking frail but beaming with warmth and kindness.
Queen Elizabeth II wore her faith in her heart, not on her sleeve. It is the best place for faith. From there it can shape everything.
Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury:
As deep as our grief runs, even deeper is our gratitude for Her Late Majesty’s extraordinary dedication to the United Kingdom, her realms and the Commonwealth. The late Queen leaves behind a truly extraordinary legacy: one that is found in almost every corner of our national life, as well as the lives of so many nations around the world, and especially in the Commonwealth.
In the darkest days of the Coronavirus pandemic, The Late Queen spoke powerfully of the light that no darkness can overcome. As she had done before, she reminded us of a deep truth about ourselves – we are a people of hope who care for one another. Even as The Late Queen mourned the loss of her beloved husband, Prince Philip, we saw once again evidence of her courage, resilience and instinct for putting the needs of others first – all signs of a deeply rooted Christian faith.
Pope Francis:
I willingly join all who mourn her loss in praying for the late Queen’s eternal rest, and in paying tribute to her life of unstinting service to the good of the Nation and the Commonwealth. I invoke an abundance of divine blessings as a pledge of comfort and strength in the Lord.
