West Ham (a) pre-match thread

[Dax777]

My only concern is the shit Zlatan peeling off Otamendi on the back left post and Delph being outjumped in process.

Need to avoid silly free-kicks anywhere near our goal.

Would also like to see Ederson remain totally concentrated.

Get Leroy and Raz stretching their full-backs.

That is such a narrow concern that I won't worry too much about it.

Ota' sharpness, our chemistry post international break, the absence of Bernado e.t.c. Are way more important points to worry about.

Inho of course :)

COME ON BLUEBOYS

The selective memory here is sometimes amusing :)

When we do drop points/have lost, however, he is part of the midfield.

Which, considering Gundo isn't a regular starter, suggests our midfield is a couple of gears down.

Hence, it being my only concern!

To be fair to Gundogan, he delivered big time in the derby only two weeks ago.

Agreed, but there have been a number of occasions where he has not shown up. Selective memories indeed. Weakens our midfield and think Bernardo will be a big loss today. Hopefully he has a great game. But Pep knows what he is doing.

Hope we are at it as we’ve not had a competitive game for two and half weeks.

Shame to split Stones and Laporte, I like watching them and think they are getting better with every game. Understand it's a team game though.

 

[halfmist]

Just hope Gundogan puts a shift in. To be honest I worry when he is in the team

TSN have just shown the 44 pass goal. It’s get better every time I see it. More of the same today please.
