Subs: Ward, Vestergaard, Thomas, Choudhury, Mendy, Albrighton, Lookman, Pérez, Iheanacho.

As good an on paper side as we have put out for some time.
Need to put in a performance. Desperately.

 

[homer]

Drop ‘em for one game, then bring ‘em straight back in, then

That’ll show em

The obvious risk is Soyuncu alongside Amartey. Could be painful

 

[Brown Nose]

My main issue is our complete lack of physicality. I make it that West Ham have four or maybe five starters who are stronger in the air than our best one.

I'm not suggesting that BR has many options but every set piece for them will be a genuine goal chance. I can't see how we possibly win on this problem alone.

We only have Vestergaard on the bench who has any physical presence, yet he doesn't have any physical presence if you get what I mean.

Zouma and Antonio will score so we need to score at least 3 to have any chance

It looks like Zouma is not playing, according to 5 Live. Apparently he pulled up in the warm up, had a word with Moyes and went down the tunnel.

 

[Blaarev]

Zouma is ‘’unwell’’. Must have been something the cat brought in.

I worry about us against Wham - feel like we've had some bad results and performances against them recently.

But, our second half of the season turn in form starts here - the opposite direction to the last 2 seasons!

 

[Graz]

I know neither have been back up to full fitness or form... But how good is it to see Ricardo and JJ back in the full back positions?!

It's been far too long!

 

[glyn]

No foul by Bowen there?

 

[glyn]

looking at the stat pre match about us having most shots against, shows Wilf and the midfield need to be shielding far better too

 

[glyn]

Is that West Ham fans doing all the singing?

Sounds like it

Or not.

0-1. Terrible back line. Far too easy

 

[Jeff]

****

 

[Polar Bear]

****ing hell.

 

[glyn]

Great start. Early goal and looking abysmal in midfield

 

[homer]

Just a shitty lump through the middle

****ing hopeless
