They can put 10 at the back if they want... We'll be two up before half time, and three more after it.

Come on City!

Think with weet ham playing a back5 doku starting makes perfect sense

Will be tough to break them down but once we do we will get a couple. 3 0 win

5 at the back for the first time this season for West Ham. Fuck off

Whats the fucking point even ?

WH lose they finish 9th, draw they finish 9th, win they finish 9th.

This game means less than fuck all for them except the fear of a good old fashioned bumming.

Meanwhile at cult central....

The DJ at Anfield is setting the tone for this emotional occasion today with his song choices.

We’ve had "nothing compares 2 U," "don’t you forget about me" and "while my guitar gently weeps."

Hahhahahahahahahhhahhahahhahahahahhhahaahhhahahahahah fucking hell

 

[sir baconface]

Have we won yet?

Surprised Kovacic doesn't start. We've looked more solid with him next to Rodri. Hopefully Doku can have a blinder, though I would have kept him as an impact sub to come on 2nd half.

Anyway, whatever the 11, we've just got to get it done.

Looks like they have gone 5 at the back-Doku starting then makes sense-someone to get behind them otherwise too much playing in front of them.

I keep on thinking of the possibilities and I keep coming back to a couple of early goals and stroll of an afternoon. God I hope I'm right

A formation they haven't played all season. So 'practice makes perfect' doesn't apply. Attack, attack, attack.
