Good news that Behrami and Collison seem to be back - especially with Parker out. It could be a blessing in disguise parker not playing. His passing has been quite awful this season imo. Bhrami will get the team going today. He is the driving force we have missed this season. Plus if Parker played ...

His age has absolutly nothing to do with my comment. At this moment in time he is a bog standard prem player. Most fans that go watch him every week would agree imo. Mark Noble has not improved in the last 3 years. FACT I watch him every week and I don't agree. FACT What has he done in the last two...

And still other teams believe Mark Noble is a great player :lol: He has been a bog standard premiership at best. Has been a bog standard Premiership player at 22 years old after having captained England under 21s . Doesn't quite sit right with me. Think we need to look higher up to be honest. As fo...

Evening all! Best of luck after tomorrow (until we come to Upton Park). I'm expecting a different game to last season's encounter at the Brit, where we were a little over-confident. Whilst we've invested in new players over the summer, don't expect a vastly different line-up to last time... Quick q...

Dont think so mate. He is the first

Jiminez will get kicked off the pitch. We need battlers. As I said, I can tell by looking at Jiminez that he is going to be sh*t away from home this season 8-) So who are we going to play behind the two forwards? Noble? We need JImenez out there to make things happen. So we are assuming that Zola h...

You guys are wrong, we cant match Stoke and try to beat them, it wont work. Jimenez has to play. Although it doesn't matter because without Parker we wont win :lol: Green Faubert Upson Tomkins Illunga Behrami Kovac (he might be ok with Parker not next to him) Noble/Collison Jimenez Hines Cole Jimin...

Green
Costa - Upson - Tomkins -Ilunga
Faubert - Behrami - Noble - Collison
Hines - Cole

f*** the journeymen.

I agree. Not a game for jiminez for sure

To be honest I dont see why people are getting all worked up. There was police everywhere last year during match hours last year and I didnt see any trouble. And we went out in Stoke that night and was signing West Hams songs in the town center at 2.30 in the morning :crest: But then again. I'm a bi...

His Zola's love child though. I'd rather see Hines play, but Zola and Jimmys' cocks probably smell of each others sh*t.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I don't we are ready for Diamanti and Jimenez to start at the minute. We need to go back to basics, start defending properly from the front, work hard & battle to get some points. Tottally agree mate. I wouldnt play both in this game with Cole. Thing is we just havent really got the players for...

This is not a game for Jimmy imo.

To be honest, I can tell by looking at him that he is going to be **** away from home

Bhrami needs to start. If he does I reckon we will be coming away with a point atleast. Bhrami and Kovac will add a bit of height and strenght to our midfield

We will get atleast a point

Kovac has got to play for me. We need a bit of strenght and height in the middle as we all know Stoke are powerful. He could also be useful when defending set plays. If Collinson is fit Noble doesn't play imo. He has been quiet all season and simply not good enough. Bhrami is much needed and I think...
