Don't know if you saw any of tonight's cup game, but Snodgrass was excellent again, and Perez invisible.

OK. Although in the overall scheme of things this may not be must win game, for many reasons, to say nothing of to boost morale and give us a good bit of confidence and get our season going, I think it is

Fabianski
Fredericks - Diop - Ogbonna - Arthur
Sanchez - Wilshere
Yarmolenko - Anderson - Snodgrass
Arnautovic

*BEFORE THE ABUSE FOR CHOOSING ARTHUR*

Toss up with Arthur and Cress for me, cannot drop Snodgrass and Anderson should play through the middle for me, just in that first half we lacked pace down that left side which is why I would choose Arthur over Cress, because Snoddy did put some venomous crosses in from the left.

Rice unfortunate to miss out and would rather him than Ogbonna and Balbuena but would leave a very inexperienced defence, Ogbonna was at fault for the goal tonight but Wolves don't have a Hanson type player up top who they will just lump it too, and Balbuena hasn't looked great either for me, especially on the floor, and doesn't really have the pace to cope with Wolves.

I’ve got a feeling Arnautovic won’t pass his late fitness test.

3-1 West Ham.

Absolute must win. Not that it’ll be easy. Wolves are a decent side. But we have to beat some decent sides eventually and that has to start on Saturday.

If Arnie isn’t fit i’d prefer us to start Antonio up front

That is all

not sure, if he hasn't played since January, Yarmolenko will make 2 games in a short week...

Obiang and Perez don't deserve a start......

Diop and Balbuena at CB's..other than the goal, Oggie was not very good.....

Sanchez and Wilshere back in CM/DM

Antonio will be back I think..............................Snodders and Anderson....don't think there's a choice over playing Chicharito ..didn't have the best of nights but kept plugging away and scored....

Oggy rather than The General and Arnie up front then I'll be more optimistic. Wolves are a good side

thought Oggie was dreadful tonight and the kid looked more accomplished..

Arnie won't be fit I reckon if we are reading things right.....Yarmolenko might not be fit enough for 2 games in a short week either......

reckon Antonio will be back too........

last weeks team with Chicharito in for Arnie..

I think this game has lots of goals in it.

A thoroughly entertaining 3-3.

why ? wolves gave city a few scares and got a good draw. they will fancy this as much as we do. they will attack us for sure. hopefully arnie is fit

fabianski

sanchez wilshere
Snodgrass Anderson masuaka

subs Adrian zabaleta Balbuena rice Hernandez perez Antonio

I reckon we will be well up for it both on and off the pitch and put in a decent performance. 2-0 hammers win and the start of an unbeaten run ?

Massive game, that everyone has to be up for, including the fans.

Fabianski....................
Fredericks....Diop...Rice...Cresswell
.................Sanchez....Wilshere...........
Yarmolenko.....Anderson......Antonio
.......................... Arnautovic

If Arnautovic fails his fitness test, I would go with Antonio up top and Snodgrass on the left.

2-1 to the cockney boys!!! ⚒

I don't have any faith in the team to beat anyone at the OS - you just have to look at the majority of games we have won since being there and there's only a handful where we really put teams to the sword.

The above is more a reflection upon the stadium than the team itself.
