West Ham United (A) - Sat 16th Sept, 15:00 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

[JRockBlues]

2 European champions go head-to-head after an international break but the game is not deemed appropriate for a TV match. Poor decision making from Sky/TNT.

Foden behind Haaland for this one. Alvarez can start against Newcastle and Forest.

 

[Heath Park]

Yep. It's a thing I have to do as I genuinely believe we only win trophies when I post it......been doing it a few years now. Some posters remember and give me a pass/ignore and others think it's a genuine post.

Keep up the posting malg!
It's working a treat so far... :-)

Tricky game. Keep set pieces to a minimum!

On both sides. Without KDB and after losing Gundo, Mahrez... Possibly our only weakness is that we have no set piece specialist

Foden can cross some

 

[Academica]

Can see west spam winning this not bad odds 5/1 bet 365 for an inform home team

How much you putting on it?

 

[Zenmanc]

All I know is we had Bobb, Garcia on the field and we looked dynamic. I am saying that I think this year's version of the boys in blue is going to be a horror show for the opposition... it may take a few "underwhelming 5-1 wins" but we will get to a point where the opposing side is shitting their pants.

It's going to take a very good team to get anything out of us this season....that's the 11 direct opponents or the PiGMOL bunch....

 

[MadchesterCity]

Les hope we don’t pick up any injuries over international break

Team for me is

————————Haaland
—Doku—Alvarez—Foden—Bernardo
——————-Kovacic——Rodri
Ake(Gvardiol)—Ederson—Dias—-Walker

They have several players that pose a real threat and I’d suggest are suited to work against our style of play in Antonio and Bowen. JWP and Paqueta are also class players and if things had been different could have been playing in sky blue. I like Areola I’m goals for them, we need to get off to a quick start and scoring first is essential

I would prefer it if none of our games were ever selected for TV, meaning 3pm Saturday kick offs for eternity.

I always think for some reason there's more chance of us winning at 3pm ( I know it's nonsense) but for example I'd rather play Palace away at 3pm on a Saturday than 8pm Monday night

Doubt Alvarez will start due to being in South America this week. Ederson should be fine.

 

[LongsightM13]

Doku at RB?

Don’t feed the troll, he’s not even subtle
