West Ham (h) pre-match thread

[ninjamonkey]

I don't think West Ham have it in them to defend like Southampton or Huddersfield have done in the last two games. Heavy rotation here, give some players a few days holiday and a week long rest before the derby, we're seeing all the other big sides rotate and still win well but we're still using the same 14 or so players. It will hurt us sooner rather than later if we don't start using the squad.

Ederson

Danilo Otamendi Mangala Delph

Gundogan Yaya Silva

Sterling Jesus Bernardo

More than good enough to beat a West Ham side all over the place right now.

No rotation please, strongest 11.

 

[bluwes]

He was lucky not to get a Red with a two footed tackle he made, the cynic in me thinks he doesn't want to play against us

That exactly how I saw it, it was a stupid tackle and he'd only just been booked

Yep strongest team then spend spend spend in january !:))

No rotation please, strongest 11.

Absolutely! Win the game by half time, couple of ogs from Agent Zab, hat tricks for Sergio and Jesus, one each for the others and some fluid, fast, one touch passing instead of the semaphore stuff we've seen over the last couple of games.

I wonder what tactical revolution Moyes will be planning ?

I can't imagine.

Lol, expect to see Tim Cahill in the starting XI

 

[BerkshireBlue]

Yes, you’re both quite right it seems! I’d left Kompany out anyway, but think Sane could start instead of Sterling in that case (assuming he’s recovered from whatever kept him out tonight).

Sane is on 4 bookings

Hart can’t play can he or was that rule changed.

 

[BerkshireBlue]

Sane for Bernado, Fern for Gundogan, Managala for Kompany, Jesus up top on his own and thats all the changes necessary

 

[Manchester_lalala]

I thought Walker had a pretty bad game tonight, so I’d like to see Danilo come in. Kompany to stay at the back to gain more fitness.

Ederson
Danilo
Kompany
Otamendi
Delph
Gundogan
De Bruyne
David
Bernardo
Sane
Jesus

Any win will do,just keep applying the pressure to the teams chasing and 1by1 they'll start to buckle.

 

[mancity1]

May well be 11 points clear of two teams if we win this one.

Chelsea and Arsenal have a good run of games in Dec /Jan so we need to keep the pressure on by getting results against Manure and Spurs.

Feel sorry for Joe and Zabba - going to be on the end of a bloody good hiding

Hart can't play. Which is a shame for us, if we are being honest.

 

[BongoCityzen]

Ederson
Danilo Kompany Otamendy Delph
KDB Gundogan Silva
Bernardo Jesus Sane

Oh..... good point.... Adrian or Adriana or whatever his name is a good keeper too

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

2 people have said a draw..... does Mark aka BlueHammer have 2 accounts?

 

[citymad]

Be great if we can rest Kev. He maybe near that zone where players are at risk of injury. He took a couple of knocks tonight, saw one of them just after he passed to Raz for the winner. Looked nasty.

 

[adelaideblue]

yes I think we need a fresh KDB. can imagine the slating Pep would get if he got injured against WH
