Re: ⚽ West Ham United v Arsenal :Match thread (9/12)
looking on the club website there are loads of tickets available for this in every part of the ground. I think the bowl will be half empty but of course will show a sold out figure. time for fans to vote with their feet. I will watch from my sofa and fear the worst for our great club . no wins in 10 for arsenal you say ? no problem the charity will help.
we have no home advantage as we play at a neutral athletics stadium. atmosphere will be poor and arsenal will win the important home matches that pelle goes on about. now that he has given up on away matches what will he say to the strollers for Southampton away ? hopefully he will be sacked Tuesday morning.
new manager please - eddie howe or scotty parker
Antonio should not be risked as we know it will end badly. save him for the new manager.

going to end badly but pelle doesn't care and nor do half the players. time for a change

IF Antonio is fit and starts I fancy us to beat these. They suit us more. In fact it's only their forwards I fear. But we will lose to Southampton IMO. I guess you could argue it's classic West Ham!
I'd go with:
--------------------------------Martin-------------------------------
-Fredericks-----------Diop----------Ogbonna-------------Cresswell-
------------------------Rice----------Noble---------------------------
-----------------------------Fornals-----------------------------------
-Antonio-------------------Haller------------------------Masuaku-
Subs: Anang, Johnson, Balbuena, Snodgrass, Anderson, Yarmolenko, Haller.

No. And certainly compared to the rest of the team he was no worse.
I just thought the players I chose to be on the bench 'may' be more effective. That's really all it boiled down to. But IF Antonio isn't fit, then i would absolutely put Holland at the bench, with Anderson then coming into the starting 11.
I still think it was personally a msktake to loan at Diangana as for me he'd comfortably walk into our starting 11. We are lacking in pace and he'd give us just that. And as I've said before, I thought he even looked good in pre-season, let alone while he has been at West Brom. But that debate is more for the Diangana thread and not this one.

I'm pretty confident of a good win

I hope Antonio is fit. He'd be too much for Arsenal CB's. It would be nice to see Cressy and Masuaku together and pinging balls in to Antonio and Haller. Should be some goals in this one!

Get the feeling the atmosphere could well turn toxic and volatile should we go in at half time losing.

Does anyone else think that could be a sign? or just a coincidence?

You really must stop thinking the same as me TommyHammer, it's no good for your health. Before you know it you'll have high blood pressure and a grey receding hairlineTommyHammer wrote: ↑Sun Dec 08, 2019 5:37 pm Does anyone else think that could be a sign? or just a coincidence?
