I think all pitches suit our football. I take nothing for granted, but we usually do alright against The Hammers.

Hammer the Hammers
Sorry couldn't resist

Play Foden.
Win handsomely but don't embarrass Zabaleta.
Sing his song for him.

How many days till this?

Considering Pellegrini loves an offside trap, it would be interesting to see how Jesus does in a game like this if he were to play

No place for sentiment. If we need to embarrass Zab to ensure we keep our foot fully down (and on the scousers’ throats), then so be it.
No time too to fuck about with team selection. Same as the derby. Destroy them.

I like West Ham but hoping for an easy win here. Aren't we a bit of a bogie team for them? 3 losses to them in the past 12 years or something?

Team will depend on how many minutes the lads get in the Internationals.

With respect to West Ham we really should have enough to beat them.

Even though I hate suggesting to break up the Stones-LaPorte partnership I’d like to see Otamendi start. Maybe with Stones at RB.

Up front it’d be nice to see Sané start. He needs to get into a rhythm.

Not sure about Jesus or Gundogan. I prefer both as subs.

Whats the best way from euston to the ground??

 

[hjm1962]

Much rather Zab gives it a miss...for some reason..

Tube. End up at Stratford. One change 20/25 mins and a 15 minute walk to the stadium. Not many pubs around Stratford though, so have your ale around Euston or an en-route tube station

The underground

The underground

To be serious a quick flip to st Pancras then a short ride to Stratford international is about half the time of a full underground trip

I'd go over to Hackney Wick and go to crate - https://cratebrewery.com/

Nice pub and does pizza - its about 5 mins walk to the away end from there but can get abit busy on match day. I went there last season

Definitely the right answer. A lot more pleasant as well.Its only 10 mins walk (max) to St Pancras then upstairs to platform 12 and jump on a nice air conditioned Javelin. Takes all of 7 mins to Stratford.

Pretty sure David , Fern and Aguero will start as none of them have any international (yawn) football for the next couple of weeks.
