West Ham (a) pre-match thread

[lionheart]

Why is Otamendi not being selected by punters on here? He was rightly rested at home to a weak side but his experience may be needed down London. He, Walker, Sane and Dinho should definitely start.

They may will start. Maybe Pep is alternating a few players

Don't they still need a result of some kind to be safe?

Might be tougher than we think - although same could have been said yesterday.

Moyes parked the bus at our place and tried to catch us on the break, let's hope he hasn't learned.

That boy Declan Rice is a gonna be a star. Fantastic talent.

Can tell you first hand that Declan is a proper nice lad, going all the way to the top, give it 2/3 seasons he will be at a top 4 club

0/4 city

Gunners gave them a hiding, can’t see Moyes letting that happen again. They don’t have the defensive capability to keep us from creating a plethora of chances. More of the same intensity from the Swansea game, we can certainly put 3 or 4 past them if we keep the ball down on the deck. Would be nice to see Foden get more minutes. Bernardo should definitely keep his slot after last performance.
Keep it tight, make them chase the ball and stick our chances away.
3-0 City.

I think Pep is keeping the side motivated by taking into account their personal motivations. Laporte wants a run of games to push for WC selection. Otamendi is certain of his place and has had a long hard season.

West Ham played ok in their last couple of games despite only getting a point, should have beaten Stoke if not for a Hart howler and only fell apart last 10 mins vs Arsenal. As said Rice looks like he could be a very good player but with him + Zabaleta I can see us targeting the left side again. Otamendi back in to combat Arnautovic and possibly Carroll. 3-1

 

[Blu KB]

Gundogan deserves to play

 

[brummie blue]

West Ham look like they will always concede, which suits us nicely, they will attack as they still need a couple of points to ensure survival, should be an open game.
