PolicyDrift'Same old story' - Hammers fans react to Burnley draw

[Getty Images] West Ham United let slip a 2-0 lead as they drew 2-2 at Burnley on their return to the Champoinship on Sunday. They conceded the equaliser in the 92nd minute, having led through.

[Getty Images] West Ham United let slip a 2-0 lead as they drew 2-2 at Burnley on their return to the Champoinship on Sunday. They conceded the equaliser in the 92nd minute, having led through goals from Max Kilman and Manor Solomon. Thank you to all the Hammers fans who sent us their views on the result and performance at Turf Moor - here is a selection of their thoughts: Roger - Same old, same old! This should have been in the bag with 15 minutes to go. Poor substitutions and there you go. Underwhelming. William - West Ham looked wide open to the counter attack and if we don't solve this weakness there will no promotion. When we took off attackers we sat back and gave Burnley the advantage. Martin - We looked like the side that got relegated. Nothing has changed for us. A lot of changes are needed - a new centre back is desperately required I would say or it will be a long season with no outcome. John - Nuno has obviously not learned anything from last season - 2-0 up and he tries as usual to defend. Doesn't he realise that we cannot defend? If this is what we have to look forward to this season then it's going to be a long, long, long season. Rod - We played a typical Nuno game against Burnley. We got relegated playing this brand of football, why can't Nuno see that sitting back inviting pressure does not work? Favs to win this league? Really? [Getty Images] Kai - We were poor in the second half, and I feel sorry for Scarles as he had a really good game up until he gave away the penalty. We have got to stop trying to defend leads, and just go and put teams away. Fair play to Burnley for coming back but it's going to be a long season. Mark - Same old West Ham, same old issues. Dropping too deep when trying to close out a game but we don't have the players capable of defending a lead. Poor substitutions and poor game management. We've learnt nothing since last season. Every other team will try and raise their game against us and we have to 'man up' . John C - Pathetic game mismanagement by Nuno who continues where he left off last season. Owners must start a replacement search now! Soon it will be too late. He does not have English Football acumen. Hazel - West Ham were great in the first half but appeared to lose their way in the latter stages of the second half. They failed to keep the pressure on Burnley by retreating back into their own half. Graham - Same old shaky defence. There won't be many clean sheets while Kilman is there. Let's face the fact that £40m was a huge mistake, write it off and move on. Feel sorry for him obviously but we will always need to score at least three goals to win a game while he is there.
