West Ham sold fewer than 10,000 tickets for their second-round League Cup clash against Southampton 😅 Nuno Espírito Santo has reportedly told his players to "come on, give a response." When they were playing in the Champions League, West Ham fans snapped up tickets quickly—so why is there so little interest now? What do you think is behind this? Do you reckon the "response" Nuno’s after from his players could change the outcome? Share your thoughts! ⚽🔥

Exactly, I was talking to a West Ham friend yesterday and he said the same thing. It’s not some forgotten fact that Champions League tickets sell out within an hour, and Southampton is kind of one of those “forgotten” clubs anyway. The team’s recent ups and downs—feeling worn out both in Europe and the Premier League—could have really knocked the fans’ morale.
Nuno telling the players to “react” isn’t for nothing; after beating Son and then going through a rough patch, it’s more about keeping the morale up than just the result. Let’s see if the “reaction” comes, or if indifference just takes over—West Ham has turned into one of the most unstable teams this season, after all.
