Odd playing Coufal & Cresswell with Mavrapanos available.

Back to two keepers on the bench again? Good job we’ve done some business today……… oh

[Keep dreaming]

Django, I'm sure you are mixing moaning and disappointment...

[fraser]

Shouldn’t be playing Cresswell at all
and Scarles is better than Emerson

its not moaning for the sake of it, it’s moaning cos it’s bloody obvious 

 

Is he, I don't think he is, he's bringing him through gradually which is good.

As it's Irving for Paqueta some should be happy as been calling for him to replace him most of the season. 

[Django]

Sod’s law that paqueta has his best game all season then gets injured. Oh well, hopefully we can pull something out the fire. Coyi

[fraser]

Yeah I wouldn't start Scarles at CB... 

[Django]

Looks like Cresswell and Coufal are back in the team to stay while Scarles gets overlooked again 



 

 

 

He’s hardly gonna play scarles at right or left centre back, I’m sure he’ll get on, like he has a lot recently. Fuck me people like a moan…

[Alfs]

What's happened to Summerville?  I expected him to be back after a week or so with his injury, which seemed mild.

[stubbo-admin]

Is Paqueta on yellow card suspension? and is Mavropanos a 3 match ban for the two yellows? I thought that was just 1.

 

 

 

Paqueta did his groin in the last 10 mins of the last game. Mavropanos is a selection decision.

[Metroplex]

The absolute state of this pitifully small squad. I can only hope we get away with that woeful back 3 again. 
At least Bowen is back.

Hey Mex,

I think you have Irving and Guido flipped. Official post looks to have Irving starting.

Also looks like Mav is on the bench.

[Tomsdad]

2-0 defeat I'm afraid.

West Ham United: Areola, Wan-Bissaka, Coufal, Kilman, Cresswell, Emerson, Rodríguez, Souček, Soler, Kudus, Bowen ©


Subs: Fabiański (GK), Foderingham (GK), Scarles, Casey, Orford, Irving, Luis Guilherme, Ings

 

 

Sorry about that copied from whufc.com bottom of same page as Stubbo. A mistake I guess. I’ll be interested to see how Irving does. Hope Bowen comes back with a goal or 2!

[Keep dreaming]

Kilman the only CD, and Cresswell/Coufal entering to keep it tight. Gonna be a long night I'm afraid.

Let's just hope Bowen and Kudus can score more than we let in...

[Takashi Miike]

four FBs again, and no striker. I don't like it, but with Bowen back we can beat these absolute cunts. let's fuck up their top four ambitions

[stubbo-admin]

Is Alvarez injured or leaving? 

Reportedly injured in training.

[fraser]

Is Alvarez injured or leaving? 

[stubbo-admin]

1 step forward, 2 steps back. That line up is on Sullivan. No one else.  Had the whole of January to deal with this, and look where we've ended up.

Big chance for Irving.

Interesting line up.

[violator]

Gonna be a long night

Suggestion is Bowen starts, Irving starts....no Summerville, Paqueta or Alvarez!
