Would love to get one over on this mob, especially the Nonce with the dopey Barnet! However, would take a draw…⚒

Be happy with a draw but suspect they might have too much for us especially if we have one or 2 of our better players out.

So do I... because the manager has told us that there are knocks that will keep some out of the starting line up

Soucek doing the donkey work battling for everything whilst Fernandes gets on more with dictating the play. We've missed Souceks battling qualities and experience. 

No coincidence since they've both been paired together last 4 games we've had a significant upturn in results and performances.
True Fernandes being the playmaker

Massive.
disagree there.  Potts and Fernandes were better.  Having Potrs in allows Fernandes more freedom. Soucek looks a little fatigued. Better to have him in a 3. Pablo git a knock,keep him fir Bournemouth as I feel they will be onnthe up and more threatening. MU lucky against Spurs who went down to 10 men early. A good point or even scrape a 2-0. Last minute Wilson goal again to seel it,after an own goal by Dalot.
Orford and Myers on the bench.

We wouldn't be resting players for a game which is a little under 2 weeks away. Not a chance

I am going with claypole on this one Traore will get a start, The Bournemouth match is more winnable so I reckon quite a few will get rested for this match an FA cup

Wouldn't surprise me if Bowen was out as I thought he looked like he was struggling Saturday. Might make sense to rest him tomorrow and the cup game. Get him firing for the remainder of the season.

Soucek has to start. Same as Chelsea would be fine, just the first half like Chelsea would obviously be dream world, then hopefully Nuno has learnt and brings on Wilson and a few out of Potts, Traoré, Magassa to keep the pressure on and we fight on for a well deserved win with the crowd getting behind the team for a rare good night at the OS.

Team 4-4-2
Areola
AWB   Mavropanos    Disasi   Diouf
Bowen  Soucek    Fernandes  Summerville
Pablo   Taty

I was at this game last season, 2-1 to the happy Hammers. Same again please.
West Ham caught fire at last. Home Win

I think we should all forget about what the teams around us are doing and concentrate on winning as many games as possible.....remember the spirit of 2007?  As much as Soucek has contributed in our recent good form, l fear we may get over run in midfield. Therefore Potts comes in! I cannot see us winning as we may run out of steam again ala Chelsea, If we are still in the game with 20 minutes to go it maybe an idea to unleash Traore.

Fingers crossesd a draw at least!

I’d chance Potts or Magassa to start instead of Tommy for their energy, get the ball forward and we’ve got a decent chance of coming away with something, would be lovely to put a spanner in their works again. Free hit.
I think it is harsh on Soucek. Actually think his passing (which tends to be a weakness of his) has improved since we have gone with him and Fernandes. Think not having that extra midfielder (at times two) is giving him more time and sensible options when it comes to passing the ball. Also one of the few leaders we have in the squad. We need his experience.

The annoying thing is with Forest playing Wolves on Weds it won't be the Wolves side that rolled us over
Why won't it?

If anything, they added to their squad with Angel Gomes. They did lose Larsen but he is useless anyway.
Yup. I think this is a game Wolves will be looking forward to. That 11 point thing will be bugging them and they wont have the tension or frustration of the home crowd. I fancy them to get something.

That said, I thought Brentford would beat Forest the other week and that Brighton would beat Palace so wtfdik

I fancy it. A rare good atmosphere under the lights and the boys are at it from the off. 

I think Dalot will be how they try to stop Summerville, but if Jimmy gets a few one-on-ones with Maguire, its game over.
