League Cup vs Wolves. An alternative setup
West Ham United - Wolves (Alternative Lineup)Formation: 0-0-10 (A Wall of Men)
Manager: Graham Potter.His cluelessness about football will lead to a wonderfully chaotic and unpredictable pre-match preparation. His tactics will consist of a few vague instructions and a shrug.
Goalkeeper: A large, stable bench.Since Hermansen can't jump or dive, and Paqueta is too good at it, we might as well put a bench in goal. At least it's solid and will block most low shots.
Defense: Zero.We don't have wingers, so we don't need fullbacks. We're going all-in on offense and will let the potential bench-keeper handle whatever comes from behind.
Midfield: Empty.With Soucek unable to run, there's no point in having him in midfield. It would just be sad to watch him try to keep up. We'll save him for the forward line.
Attack: * 10 players (all the other players, including an injured Soucek, a Paqueta who dives around on the ground to distract opponents, and a match-ready Füllkrug).
* Closest to the Wolves goal: Füllkrug. He's ready to fight, so he'll scare off the opponent's defenders and clear a path for the rest of the attackers.
* In the middle of the pitch: Paqueta (in an attacking position, lying on the ground and flinging himself around). His acrobatic skills will confuse the opponents and maybe even make them laugh so much they forget to defend.
* Around Paqueta: The remaining players will cling to him since they have no specific position.
Tactic: "Fight and Flail"This tactic involves Füllkrug entering the box and scaring opponents, while Paqueta dives around, creating chaos. The rest of the team follows. Should a ball come near the goal, there's a chance it might hit the bench.

I don't think many tickets have been sold for the El Shitio tonight.

An alternative to the crab style? Interesting
perhaps Potter will surprise us with some sidewinding or the hummingbird?

Both Teams not in any form or have their shooting boots on yet, so going for a nervy 0-0 - Wolves to go through on Pens (The West Ham Way)
Would be lovely to see a bit of fucking passion and fight though at the very least!
