Master vs Apprentice vibes this. Big game.

Can’t wait to watch Tim Cahill and Leon Osman analysing every channel punt and long throw on MOTD afterwards

Hope we show Rice what he’s missing.

 

[Riou]

...first thing you hear... "He's been stuck on 18 assists for a while now."

Mad he didn't break it that season, was brilliant.

Who wins the crossing battle between Cresswell and Tierney?

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Watch us giving them so many set pieces because that what they very good at. Our confidence is high but difficult to trust our team. I think Arteta will go with same line up that won against Sp**s

 

[Rex Stone]

Who wins the crossing battle between Cresswell and Tierney?

No one. We all lose.

 

[Red London]

This is going to be a really tight game probably. I feel like in games like this a player like Partey can be the difference. If he can play close to 100% of what he is capable of, he is going to resist the press or get past a player to open up space for us to create chances.

Play Chambers at RB for this. He'll give us some much needed height for defending set pieces.

 

[Red London]

Leno
Chambers Luiz Gabriel Tierney
Partey Xhaka
Pepe Ødegaard ESR
Auba/Laca

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Difficult to see mikel make changes after Sp**s game because i think our back 6 settle it for remaining of season Leno Cedric Luiz Gabriel Tierney Xhaka Partey all are automatic starters he'll only change front 4 depend on opponents.

 

[wolfkidultman]

Lacazette must start.

 

[boonthegoon]

west ham slightly dropping their levels last few weeks, will be a good time to play them. Should win this.

Elneny's been here for so long

Whatever happened to @Stannis...?

 

[krackpot]

what do you do with a win?

Useless to think about the league now.

 

[Hunta]

Assuming Saka and Willian are still out:

Leno
Cedric Luiz Gabriel Tierney
Partey Xhaka
Pepe Ødegaard ESR
Lacazette​

Hopefully get a lead and bring on Martinelli when they open up.

 

[billyf]

Theoritically speaking, the fifth place is the only target we can chase given the circumstances.

 

[Oxeki]

They won't make the same mistake Sp**s made. They're going come at us and press us from the very first minute.

 

[Riou]

Invincible Premier League winner Arsène Wenger's last trip away to West Ham... didn't win.

3 time Europa League winner Unai Emery's last trip away to West Ham... didn't win.

Bald Freddie Ljungberg's last trip to West Ham...




...impressive win ( his only ****ing win as a coach mind )

Over to you on Sunday Mikel!
