Match Thread West Ham v Leicester

[Micky]

I am looking forward to this. With 9 changes the game is a free hit. If we'd played the first team and lost we'd have been searching for confidence and form. This allows the main men to get a rest whilst also gives some others the opportunity to make an impression.

Mendy was one of best players in Pre-season. I think he is a Premiership player but it is just unfortunate that he is behind Ndidi and Choudhury.

Yeah he’d do alright in Scotland to be fair.

There is some value in the scoring market today.

BNs tip of the day is James Justin anytime scorer at 16/1.

At least that rules 1 player out

Penalty to City

Gray MISSES!!!!!!!!!

Horrific pen.

 

[TommyK]

Gray gray!!!! Why the **** are you taking a pen!

 

[City Fan]

That was so inevitable. I’d have literally put my house on him missing that.

What the **** was Rodgers thinking giving it to him to take?

 

[Jimmy Lad]

Why not Fuchs?!

 

[Miles Away]

Why the **** is the keeper on and why the **** did gray take it

 

[TommyK]

Why not Fuchs?!

Definitely should be Fuchs

Gray scored a pen in the shoot-out at Everton, at least.

 

[Volpone]

Why does he take it? He's never scored one AFAIK.

 

[bocadillo]

So VAR can't spot a goalie off his line!

 

[TommyK]

He is literally the last person I would want taking a penalty

 

[pork pie fox]

Apart from as per above.

He's the only player on the pitch that took one and scored at Everton in the shootout.

So him taking it made sense. However, I had absolutely no faith in him scoring. He is the flakiest of flaky players at the best of times.

New double jeopardy rule this season. You can't be punished twice for one offence, i.e. penalty and red card.

It works if you score the penalty. If you miss, it's double get-away-with-murder.

A very contradictory post.

 

[Volpone]

Has he ever scored from one in normal time? I'd fancy myself to save it.
