Be interesting to see where Pep will play Foden if/when everyone is fit.
Provided that Rodri and KDB are certs in midfield, Foden can play centrally if Bernie plays on the right or if all of Bernie/Gundo/Kova are on the bench. Obviously, Foden is much more of a goal threat than Gundo, but he can't control games like him.
Alternatively, Foden can play on the wings, even though he's not a pure winger like Savinho and Doku. A nice problem to have.
Guess that in big games Pep's likely to go with Bernie, Foden and Haaland in attack plus Rodri, Gundo and Kevin in midfield. Basically, Foden will replace Grealish from the Treble starting XI. Savinho and Doku to come on against tired legs with 20-30 minutes to go.

Going be tough but would be brilliant to win it for Sven given the sad news today and the fact his first game in charge was at West Ham. What a game and performance that was so hopefully we can replicate that on Saturday.

As per when it comes to playing WHU - take nothing for granted.
Decent squad with a good manager at the helm in Lopetegui.
I think we'll win, but we have to be at it from the off.

Yes walking around the shops is clearly on the same level as PL football ;)He can’t be that bad because my daughter and her boyfriend have just seen him shopping in selfridges near the arndale.
(Actually if you play for Trafford maybe it is lol)
Should be a crackin away game again a crackin club West Ham. I’m expecting a tough game but think we’ll come away with a 0-2 win against our cockney mates. Hope to see Rodri play and also think Rico deserves another game.
Erhaps give Jack a go too. Good luck to West Ham after this match.
