Well after the disaster of Monday at Brentford, the thought of more West Ham in the same week is enough to put anyone in a bad mood.  The 'pros' always talk about wanting to get bad games out of their system quickly, and this gives them that opportunity, but also sets up a horrible start to the weekend for the rest of us!

Teamwise, Mavro is out with what looked a nasty hamstring injury.  Fullkrug is still broken, and Earthy remains unfit.  Otherwise the rest of the squad are fit from a health perspective....maybe less so from a 'wear the shirt' angle.

Nuno's logic for his inverted fullbacks it's been revealed was to try and counter Brentford's inverted wing thread, by showing them onto the defender's strong foot...the less said about the success of that the better.  And it struggles to explain Irving and Soucek in the pivot, beyond maybe 'they're both tall'.

Anyway, hopefully that's the last of the experimentation and we can revert to what at least appears a bit less shit.  Wouldn't surprise me to see him go with a back 5 in this game though (and what I'll assume for my predicted XI).

Predicted lineup:Subs: Hermansen, KWP, Todibo, Scarles, Potts, Irving, Guilherme, Wilson, Marshall

The squad is now a real quandary.  We don't have a good CB pairing...Todibo looks hopeless, Kilman and Igor both left footed, with one an unknown and the other weak as the senior CB.  Mavro was signed to be 3rd choice, but he's suddenly the most important man in the back line...a problem in itself.

Summerville is a must have...the only true pace in the side so leaving him out can't be compromised.  If 3 at the back and 3-4-3 was viable, not a problem....but once again we don't have a midfield with a logical two-man pairing.  Add in that Bwoen and Soucek are the only goals, and Paqueta is the only real 'vision' and we are in a bad place with a squad that don't work in combination.

So will he gamble on a bad back two, an untried midfield pair, or leave out one of the 'key' players in Soucek, Bowen, Paqueta, and Summerville.

And as for playing a real striker....

Predicted Score: Leeds 2 : 0 West Ham.

Hoping for the best, but expecting the worst.

COYI!

Get Fernandes off set pieces ffs!

This ref is a fucking joke. That's so petty

Potts works it well to Fernandes and he kicks it right out of play!

Potts has already touched the ball half as much as Soucek did

Amazing sub, fuck off Nuno

Did Paqueta refuse to come off?

If so, GOOD.

I’m not sure what’s more embarrassing, our defending or our attacking.

Criminal that Fernandes wasn't on from the start. 

Ultra negative Spanish Moyes couldn't not go with 7 defenders 

Taking off Mr No end product for yet another Defender when chasing a game 2-0 down. Shambles United.

Paqueta, Potts and Fernandes our best players.
And the latter two have played 5 min.....

Leeds fans must be cracking up that we started with that XI to gift them three points.

We could have won this game with Potts and Fernandes in there rather than bringing them on when it was already too late.

We could play all year & not score.

absolutely no idea how to create chances 

A new low this match is seeing Aaronsen shine. He works hard and doesn't switch off but he's not even a starter for the US team let alone premier League standard and we're having trouble dealing with him.

We have had 2 shots on target in nearly 4 1/2 hours of football.
