No point in changing a winning team, IMO. If Kova is not fully fit, Gundo comes in.
The break gives those still missing a chance to get upto full speed.

I'd probably take out Silva for Gundo, didn't have his best game last time out

We need to start fast & aggressively,control the ball and be utterly ruthless in taking our chances.

The All Black's of football...

'Ruthless..Relentless..Remorseless..& beautiful !!

This is going to be harder than we think, West Ham have got some decent players and Lopetegui has got them playing some good football. It's got a draw written all over it

Our recent record against them is exceptional. They didn’t offer much against Villa and were better than they are.

I think we’ll win.

Get down on the canal mate. Theres a great away pub about half a mile away from the ground.

Any idea of the name of the pub mate?

Could be wrong, but I don’t think Lopetegui has ever managed against us nor even against Guardiola.

Wonder what's up with Phil, usually players get over stuff within a few days, but he's still missing. Covid?

He has when he managed Wolves
