"""Kudus..might be in contention after his Afcon appearances"". Jordan Ayew played for.Palace tonight so why not. ?"

[zebthecat]

We have set up to beat Bournemouth. Do that and we are are looking good for the rest of the season given tonight's results.

[Sydney_Iron]

"We should bag 3 points here, COYI Not sure i will be getting too upset about who Moyes picks, Pointless getting all hot and bothered about something that hasn't happened yet? Will be interesting to see if Soucek does start over Alverez assuming Philips is starting, Alverez has been i injured, so may not even be in the bench, also considering the cunting Moyes got for allegedly rushing Paqueta back will seem a tad hypocritical if the venting of spleens does occur. Personally, i will wait for a few games before getting annoyed as i would like it to be Soucek who makes room for Philips, he and Alverez could be mustard IMO."

[Dr Matt]

Aguerd will be back for the next match too now. Having him and Kudus back earlier than planned is a bonus.

[Takashi Miike]

"soucek cannot be dropped. he put our best player out in the LW/LM graveyard position to accommodate his favourite through the middle. the jock twat may shoehorn alvarez in to a back 4/5, but potato salad is his first name on the team sheet"

[Iron Duke]

"Team News‚Ķ England midfielder Kalvin Phillips could be in line for his first appearance in Claret and Blue, following his arrival on loan until the end of the 2023/24 season from Manchester City. Edson ?Ålvarez, Lucas Paquet?° and Michail Antonio continue to be assessed after being absent from West Ham United‚Äôs squad for the draw away at Sheffield United, while Mohammed Kudus might be in consideration following Ghana‚Äôs elimination from the 2023 CAF Africa Cup of Nations."

[fraser]

"No way does Moyes leave one of his big players on the bench if they've declared themselves fit, unless it enables him to keep the passenger Soucek on the pitch."

[Hammer and Pickle]

"Seems to be declaring himself ready for Thursday’s game. All rather odd this, wouldn’t you say?"

[Iron Duke]

Look it up if you’re that bothered.

[Hammer and Pickle]

OK. What‚Äôs the ?Ålvarez injury?

[Hammer and Pickle]

OK. What‚Äôs the ?Ålvarez injury?

[Iron Duke]

"A reminder that Alvarez has missed the last two matches through injury. So if he doesn’t start on Thursday, he isn’t being dropped."

[Hammer and Pickle]

I think Moyes is actually mad enough to drop Alvarez rather than Soucek and play Philips for this game at least. He wants to prove a point and will believe he has nothing to lose. The bloke is also a total cսnt.

[BillyJenningsBoots]

Moyes is mad but he's not completely stupid. Even I can't believe that he'd drop possibly our best performing central midfielder because he gets afew yellow cards... lets face it he is stretched by the fact that Soucek is a passenger and is making up for his lack of performance. You bring Philips in for Soucek and it will improve Alvarez's performance... thats they way Moyes needs to go... The more i say it the more i think Moyes might just do the opposite... ffs... if he does can we all agree on MOYES OUT - Yeah?

[Sir Alf]

Wonder if Moyez will drop Alvarez for Phillips as suggested by that journo at the Mirror? This journo allegedly has good contacts at the club and was first with the news on Phillips?

[onsideman]

"Lol at 'melt', Russ. Great use of the word Was here not there as was a (failed) safeguarding jibe rather than snide. Saw plenty over there calling her a hopeless, unfunny box-ticker - with which it's hard to argue - however not so many comparing her to cancer and calling her a spastic. Each to their own"

[Russ of the BML]

Manuel 2:52 Mon Jan 29 How do you know! LOL

[Manuel]

"Russ of the BML is a model father and husband, don't worry about that, he isn't allowed to post on here at weekends."

[El Scorchio]

"So, Kudus, Phillips and Rosie Jones all available to play in this one then? Good news if true."

[Russ of the BML]

Nagel 6:55 Sun Jan 28 He didn't because if you go on that thread there's lots of posts all basically the same so he realised he'd be picking up numerous posters. So he's come on this thread to do it like a snide.

[Russ of the BML]

onsideman 6:31 Sun Jan 28 Turn it in you big tart. Don't worry about my parenting. WHO is like the pub. Fucking melt.

[Kaiser Zoso]

onsideman’s obviously got tickets to see Rosie live soon.

[Alfs]

"Onsideman - you realise this is WHO, the West Ham site that makes Bernard Manning seem woke? Perhaps you should scuttle off to KUMB."

[Nagel]

Ooooh! Get her.

[onsideman]

"Erm... go fuck yourself, Nagel?"
