Think Tobido has been carrying an injury for a few games now and was being rushed in before he’d recovered properly. If this is so, and is the context for the reported bust-up with Lotepegui, we can but shake out heads in disbelief at the incompetence.

Sounds like Todibo not playing tonight. As of Friday he was not training with the first team.  Either relegated to train with U21s or injured? 

Stavros and Kilman versus the fleet footed Cunha.  

*** shudders ***

Just as well because I strongly expect us not to win it such is the disarray at the club and low morale.  Suppose Antonio’s plight might invigorate a few but dont bank on it.

And yes, losing tonight and Loopy staying on is a plausible scenario in crazy world and head of David Sullivan a pint sized egomaniac with a desire to be a Russian dictator complete with tranny wife.

Hair of the dog and a dirty burger, Fraser should sort you out. Is taters though so I might ask to borrow 1 of Steidtens fuck off scarfs for good measure!

Hopefully the carthorse can score another 2 goals like last week, cause we fucking can't

You say exactly the same thing for every home game, fuck only knows why you have an ST. As for Dawson, I reckon he raped somebody you know, such is your hatred of the man

Back the team no matter what

Frankly couldn't care about the result. Although I hate to see West Hamm lose at least I will be compensated in the fact Lopetegui will be sacked. If we win it's nice but maybe is postponing the inevitable. I just hope Sully's alreay decided to get rid and it just stalling for time to get the new guy in.

Don't we wish. 

Looking forward to going, reckon it's going to be a night full of drama one way or another. Here's to an entertaining win and possibly the start of better things to come. The signs are positive if we can just tighten up at the back.

You either go, or you don't.

We seem to have acquired so many delicate fairies nowadays.

i am debating whether to go, most ST holders i know are going home and watching it on the box..... if we win you get the ump the manager is staying and if we fail to win you get the ump for trekking over there! 

Least from the sofa they either win and fine or they dont win and glad I aint marching round stratford 10pm on a monday eve 

Think it’ll click tonight.

3-0

I wouldnt even play Kudus as a false 9.  Just stick him up top.  Summerville Bowen and Kudus running at a back line that just shipped 4 at Everton should be the play. Go at them, Kudus against Dawson will be a complete mismatch get the ball into Soler/Paqueta and then get the 3 mentioned running into the space behind. Alvarez and both full backs can play a bit deeper. Let those 3 cause the damage. 

Decent team suggestion Rossal. Kudus as a false 9 may well be another failed experiment but he’s got strength, pace and can turn and run with it. Nearest to Antonio in his best days.  

But Loppy like so much at West Ham will go for the conservative, cautious approach and is so commited to this high line.  

He will pick Soucek, put Paqueta in an advanced position again where he has been dreadful and play Bowen as the false 9 or central striker nullifying him.

I can imagine Stavros starting again too.  Alvarez and Soucez will struggle with transitions ( counters ) in midfield and Stavros and Kilman are too slow to play the high line too.   I can see Cunha racing thru onto a ball behind the back 3 or thru the middle as so many teams have done this season. Alternatively they will exploit the space down the flanks as our advanced wing backs are stranded up field when someone like Paqueta turns the ball over.

Its gonna get worse I suspect before things get better.  

Defeat or at best a draw.  Only consolation is Loppy goes but who trusts Sullivan to appoint anyone that can improve things? Only appointment he ever got right by chance was Moyes. And then that went south after 2 seasons and he waited for 2 more to act.  

This season is over other than staying in the Prem.  

Happy Monday

Fwiw, I can't see the German starting yet or Kudus as a false 9, so fancy Bowen will start there, but who really cares, they just need to go out there and take the game to Wolves, and it will look after itself.

This is going to be a draw, isn't it?
