"I‚Äôd sooner he‚Äôd have just been sacked and fucked off. He‚Äôs not going to do anything different to what he‚Äôs always done, it would mean him admitting he‚Äôd got it wrong. Clap the cսnt? He should be put in the stocks and everyone chuck rotten food at him. Win is what I do prick."

[David L]

"Well said boleyn. After all the shit he's covered us in and blatantly disrespected the fans, he can fuck off. No tears to hide from me."

[scott_d]

"This is a really odd game. Absolutely nothing to get excited about and I can't imagine Moyes gives a flying fuck what happens with the result. We know what team he's going to play. We know he's going to bring on Cresswell, Johnson and probably JWP and leave any youngsters plus Cornet on the bench. We know it's going to be a bore-fest. Am I the only one just wanting to get this season over and done with so we can move on?"

[aldgate]

Surely even Moyes can see Zouma/Ogbonna is a joke pairing....

[Lee Trundle]

We'll have more possession than them. The away game was one of the very few times we had more of the ball than the opposition.

[boleyn8420]

"You only have to look at his last excuse, or all of them, which always exonerates him from any blame. The reason we let in 5 against a dire Chelsea side was we lost Rice a season ago. So expect him sulking big time and as someone said 25% possessions against Luton and 2 shots (if were lucky) all game. Good send off my arse."

[Fauxstralian]

The u21's next playoff game is away at Sunderland on Monday night so no reason why the likes of Orford and Earthy couldnt have some substantial game time v Luton ..... apart from the fact that D Moyes is still manager

[percyd]

"Some are speculating that DM will 'let us offf the leash"" and go for all out attack. I'm more inclined towards this being his chance to give the supporters the fingers, and play the most defensive side possible and drearily concede 75%-80% possession to Luton."

[Queens Fish Bar]

Humiliation incoming. PS My predictions are usually incorrect.

[arsene york-hunt]

Earthy to come on when we are losing so he get the experience he missed out on in the Fulham game ie.being booed off the pitch with the useless fucks that earned it. What a fucking experience that would have been on his PL debut?

[BillyJenningsBoots]

"Lato Some muppet on fb was saying that the success of the youth teams is down to Moyes's work ""behind the scenes with the youth structure"" I feel some West Ham fans are not paying attention... havent we got the fewest minutes for under 18s playing first team football or something?"

[Sir Alf]

Moyes is nothing if not predictable Same starting team as for Chelsea which was the same as started against Liverpool. Tge exception might be Dinos coming in for old Oggy Cresswell and Johnson and posdibly ings come on from 60-70th min if we are 1 or 2 down or 85th min if we are drawing or ahead. Earthy comes on only if we are winning in the 3rd minute of added time

[pdbis]

They will do well to get 10m for Phillips as he has done fuck all at Man City.

[terry-h]

The Athletic states Phillips has an ‚Äòunspecified‚Äô injury which prevents his appearance on Saturday. ( Man City want to sell the cսnt for 30 mill in the summer window apparently‚Äî-hahahaha)

[Rossal]

Areola Coufal Dinos Zouma Emerson Alvarez Orford Bowen Earthy Kudus Antonio

[daveyg]

It's a relegation 6 pointer.

[Jasnik]

I bet he plays Phillips.

[Lato]

"They only reason Moyes fails to play youngsters is because his plan A, the only plan he has is totally alien to the way they have been coached since they joined the club!"

[Lee Trundle]

"It's criminal (in footballing terms) how ignorant Moyes is with our youth players. I really hope we haven't missed the boat with some of their development and a few of them can attempt to be integrated into the first team squad,"

[Fauxstralian]

Most / all of his bench places for youngsters are token and he has no interest in relying on them Mentioned that George Earthy played in the u21 quarter final on Saturday so was never going to be used on the Sunday at Chelsea

[Roeder-nowhere]

"I inagine DM will give 3 new youngsters their debuts in the last 2 minutes of the game so he can say he blooded them if they come good. As he keeps harping in about with Rooney. Interesting to see his mindset on this. Points only relevant for the Board and the money a place higher up the table would bring. Can atill go down a notch. So does he change things around and tru and entertain and go for a good win against a team we should be beating prior to the Man City loss we wouod expect, or does he do what he haa always done… I think we all know the outcome. A moment of applause for winning us the trophy is what he deserves just to show we aren’t the C**S the media is making us out to be then off he goes and we can move forward"

[Manuel]

"It's good Luton are fighting still to make this half interesting. What I can see is a sunny afternoon, we play quite well, beat Luton, and big smiles all round as Moyes gets a big send off. Urgh."

[factory seconds]

"will be an odd game. one team with far more quality treating it like a testimonial, the other fighting tooth and nail for their lives. genuinely couldn't give all that much of a toss what happens. nice to see bowen notch up a few in the hope that southgate's generous beak gets a whiff of just how good he actually is."

[Fauxstralian]

"You’d hope there would be enough pride to show something v Luton If Man City need to win to clinch the title they will. If they need a cricket score to win on GD ….. it’s worth a bet. 6-0, 7-0, 8-0"
