they are the form team in the league and it sounds like we will be missing a couple of players.
anything from this game is a bonus.
a win would just change everything.

Detest this lot more than any other club.
The worst owners
that air of entitled arrogance
The media fawning ovet their every move.
Fernandes - whining over every decision
Unfortunately theyve stumbled across a likeable manager - signed some decent players - now have a goalkeeper that at least looks competent- and are having a good season because they are playing fewer games than any one (excpet us i think)
mbuemo is a mercurial handful - hopefully they play him through the middle where he isn't as effective.
Both sides weaknesses are at the back - could be a rip roaring 4-3............

the two new boys up top have breathed new life into the side, and we look comfortable on the front foot and willing to take teams on
Defensively still been a bit hit and miss, but hopefully the clean sheet at the weekend will be a huge boost for all
With a full strength XI i can see us casing them a lot of problems from the off
Fancy a soucek header to seal the deal tonight - COYI

Got a real feeling that Halamadrid will pop up with a late equaliser for us tonight.
1-1

Both Sutton and Poulter back us to lose at home tonight, could be a good sign.
I just hope that Manc supporter can’t get his hair cut tomorrow.

If Bowen and Summerville start I think we can give them a decent run for their money.
Maguire could be vulnerable especially if dragged out wide but then he is also likely to pop up and score from a set piece.
Fernandes could be the key man tonight if he is able to get on the ball and dictate.
I'm going for a 3.2 win with goals from Fernandes Soucek and Bowen.

The nerds are of the view that we actually have a decent chance in this game, and that a low possession approach is not a bad thing...just that Hermansen is a bit of a risk given his weakness (and their predeliction) for shots from distance:

Need to stop their midfield and especially Roland Rat who orchestrates everything for them. Dont think Fernandes and Soucek alone as the defensive duo is enough so expect we think we need Potts to start especially if Pablo is crocked. Trouble is we have looked better with 2 pressing up top and that would be sacrificed so will it mean us sinking too deep again?
Other area of concern that pops up is Amad out wide for them. I still think Diouf can be suspect to pacy wingers defensively at times and the Mancs get a lot of chances via Amad like we do with Summerville nowadays
Roland Rat!

Ex suggesting the tales of injuries are being blown out of proportion:
West Ham have a couple of injury concerns going into the match against in form Manchester United.Social media has made the situation seem much worse than it is and the starting eleven could be quite similar to the one that started against Burnley.The manager will need to decide whether to keep with Hermansen in goal following his clean sheet or recall Areola. Another dilemma is can Wilson play two games in a row in quick succession, Pablo is obvious replacement was seen limping at the end of the game and is a doubt for today’s game.Jean-Clair Todibo is suspended for the match and serves the second of his three match ban.Keiber Lamadrid and Ezra Mayers are also in the squad but one could miss out if fitness tests are passed.Other fitness tests will be conducted on a couple of other players and this could mean that the team is hard to contain early today due to this.-Ex’s early team news off Patreon

Looking forward to this. Hoping Lamadrid is being brought into.the squad on merit.
Again saw very little of the Burnley game, only had commentary so not sure how Wilson was as a starter? Im minded to think he is more effective coming on late when we're looking for a goal?
Win. But I think the added time at the end will be a hide behind the sofa job.
And then a well earned rest on saturday for bowen, summerville, mateus.

Tempting fate I know, but Fernandes has just two assists and no goals in 12 league games against the Hammers.
And he won't even be the best Fernandes on the pitch

Didn't see us against Burnley so I don't know how well Wilson played and how it worked with him and Taty, if Pablo is out we will miss him tonight.
Agree about Man Utd, Fernandes dictates the game for them and he can pick a pass, Cunha was anonymous last time we played them but is in much better form and well capable of winning a game on his own.

The other team will need to score two or more goals against us. We just need to defend better.

I watched their game at the weekend against Spurs. They didn’t impress for much of the game. Mbeumo doesn’t look effective as a central striker. Their strength is the three behind him - Cunha, Diallo and Fernandes. Behind that they looked close to average. Need to compete in midfield and keep it tight defensively down the wings. We should be able to exploit weaknesses in their defence if we approach the game with the right attitude. Go for it, I say, and take the game to them.

Good post and they needed a late goal to beat Fulham, so they certainly aren't impregnable and we shouldn't give them too much respect. What worries me is they have some individuals who can turn a game in a heartbeat, not sure that we really have that.

One of those games where we’re weaker in most positions, even though they’ve only started playing well recently. Love these games where we’ve got the chance to halt the MU momentum. We’ve more than rattled them a few times over the years, loved the “obscene effort “ over that Ferguson team.

In our current sorry shit state there's no point resting anyone. Chuck the kitchen sink at it and hope it works, then deal with resting some in the Cup game against Burton. Plenty of time to recover before the next League game after tonight.
