Jack Elderton and Cal Goodall are back to break down a massive Friday night win that has finally lifted the Hammers out of the relegation zone while forcing Spurs into deeper waters. The episode explores how Nuno’s side weathered a tricky opening 30 minutes where Wolves' aggressive press and before half-time tactical adaptations neutralised Wolves' central overload and sparked the counter-attacks that led to a dominant display. They also discuss the return of West Ham’s aerial threat, with Konstantinos Mavropanos causing chaos in the box from set-pieces. Jack and Cal also talk the new striking partnership of Taty Castellanos and Pablo Felipe, their tireless defensive recovery runs and high-energy pressing allowing creative players like Jarrod Bowen more freedom to exploit 1v1 situations.
