Sorry the post is late up.

After what feels like an age since we limped past Burnley, we're off to the seaside to take on many peoples favourite second team, Bournemouth.

All hussle, bustle and high intensity, Iraola's mob are the modern watch word for modern style, and there is plenty to be concerned about with talented forwards and great energy in the side.  But they've lost the last two, comprehensively against Villa, and if there is a good time to play them....maybe it's now.

After the last international break, Nuno went full Looney Tunes....let's hope for a modcum of sense this time around.

Predicted Lineup:

Hard to see beyond a team similar to the last few games, but with Paquéta suspended, all eyes will be on who replaces him from a squad devoid of any real creative influence.

No doubt the temptation will be to shoehorn Soucek into the side, but against the high energy Cherries, it surely has to be Magassa, with Fernandes pushing forwards.

Areola

Wan Bisaka  Todibo  Kilman  Diouf

Magassa Potts

Bowen         Fernandes            Summerville

Wilson

Subs: Hermansen, Mavropanos, Igor, KWP, Soucek, Irving, Kante, Guilherme, Earthy

Predicted Score:  A desmond.....2-2  (Willson, Soucek)

wilson for soucek and KWP is on for Guilerme

[stubbo-admin]

Early Soucek here.

[Alfs]

Last time we won 3 on the bounce was when we beat the Royal Engineers 2-0.

[Nutsin]

Forest one up at Liverpool and a second denied for a non existent hand ball. Var doing its "Job" 

Having said that probably should be hoping for Liverpool to win tho......

 

 

Outrageous decision

[stubbo-admin]

Walker Peters on for Guilherme. Shame.

[stubbo-admin]

Feel like we'll need to score first...can't see them getting one and not getting a second, and a swirling wind towards our goal doesn't sound like something we're well equipped to deal with. 

Hope he keeps Guilherme out there, but tells him to stick his chest out and try and win the shirt off of Summerville instead of playing timid. In fairness to him about the 3rd game he's played from the start in about 2 years, so he's entitled to feel his way into it....only 19 too.

They should had had another penalty too as Sangare was tripped in the box when player trod on his ankle.

[Sweep]

Keeper was a bif iffy for Wilson's first, but the second was a cracking finish.

Areola, Todibo, Fernandes and Wilson all excellent so far. Guilherme looks a bit lightweight.

Knowing us it'll be back to 2-2 within ten minutes of the restart.

[Mex Martillo]

Lovely

[Massive Attack]

Clinical is the difference when you have a genuine Premier League quality Striker that gets up and running when fit. Excellent finishing by someone who aint afraid to work a Keeper. Be lovely if he could round it off with a perfect hat trick with a diving header in the driving rain now..

[Bowener]

5 points off a Europa league place. Crisis what crisis? Top man Callum

[Mike Oxsaw]

2nd half is going to demand some serious game management.

Nailed on they'll be out of the stocks like a perv on Viagra at the restart.

[nychammer]

Not sure you could say we dominated that and the score line maybe flatters us a little but you'd take it all day long. Long tough second half to come with that wind against us and our defence having to cope with it. Hopfully we can catch them on the break and put it to bed before they can get back into it.

[zico]

Bit deep at the end there but a decent first half.  Makes such a difference with legs in the middle.  Going to be tough against the wind though.

[kylay]

Another quality half from the hammers. Nuno looking like a proper manager

[Far Cough UKunt]

That Brooks should have seen a red.

[goose]

Need to get to half time.

[smartypants]

What a difference a striker makes… only been waiting about 20 years. 

[Takashi Miike]

just imagine, what you can achieve picking an actual striker

[nychammer]

not getting too excited. Long way to go in this

Proper striker tho isnt he

[Keep dreaming]

Deadly effective tonight

[zico]

That's a quality finish.  COYI

[Maverick180180]

Absolute class finish 

[stubbo-admin]

Now just need the wind to change direction seconds half
