Portsmouth 0 West Ham United 1 (14/01/12)

[TheAlmightyAmmer]

My first one of these so hopefully I can start off with a win

-------------------Green------------------
O'Brien—Tomkins—Reid—McCartney
Faubert—Nolan——Noble—Collison
——————Cole—Baldock————

Very little width but not many other options

0-1 West Ham

[stubbsy07]

No chance the fat one will go with a 4-4-2. That will mean our best finisher will be playing in from the left again.

Last game v Coventry, Baldock played up top with Cole in a 4-4-2 diamond. Unfortunately in that game both players looked a little rusty, Cole fatigued from the start and Baldock just coming back from injury. With Taylor still out Sam will probably deploy the same formation as it worked well v Coventry.



Subs: Boffin, Diop, Hall, Lansbury, Carew

I agree with the diamond, but this is an away game & there is very little chance of us seeing it.

I reckon we've got more chance of seeing Frank out left instead of Baldock with Faubert at RB pushing forward and providing our " width " in place of JOB

[NorthBankAlliance]

Whoever we play we'll set up negatively and play dreadful football.

[RyanWHUFC]

Going to this one, don't want to see 4-5-1, I would like to see 4-4-2 with the diamond but I reckon Big Sam will go 4-5-1 anyway.

Ding ding ding, we have a winner!

[HammerMan2004]

Whoever we play we'll set up negatively and play dreadful football and still win 2-1 and still be joint top.

Ding ding ding, we have a winner!

Updated it for you.

[fmgod]

They have a decent first eleven and with all the cloud over their team and finances, a lot of their players will be trying to impress this month to get a move, this should be a good game.

[kthammer]

A win for Pompey sadly.

Quite possibly. They have a better home record than we do. A draw will be ok, a win will be difficult. With our current difficulties in front of goal I think 1-1 is likely.

[Puff Daddy]

If Rhodes starts, I think we'lll win this by at least 3 clear goals.

I did think that after i posted. I'm not sure we'll see Frank, i can't help but think his 25 min cameo against SW was last chance saloon. I can see Collison out on the left with Diop coming in midfield. Suss Pompey out a bit, then bring Hall/Baldy on second half to have a run at them.

:lol:

[prophet:marginal]

Mullins to win the midfield battle, but we will nick this 2-1, with a goal each half.

Nolan and Baldock.

Having just thrown the FA Cup and rested our key players for a fortnight, I expect nothing less now than a comfy win. If not, yesterday was a complete and utter waste of time and money.
