Against nine men, possession alone was hardly the point. Tomáš Souček said West Ham's half-time message was to stay patient and active, then turn the ball into more goals.
Speaking to Sky Sports after the 6–0 win at Lincoln City, as quoted by The West Ham Way, Souček said the players had talked about scoring the second and third goals. West Ham led 1–0 at the break and scored five times in the second half.
