PSF: Wycombe 1-5 West Ham Utd/Ipswich 1-4 West Ham Utd (25/08/20)

[funky chicken]

Apologies if there is already a thread and didn't know whether it was better so split the 2. But apparently it will be an even split of 1st team players. Moyes will be at Ipswich and Irvine will be at Wycombe.

A few players will be missing. Presumably the likes of Fredericks, Rice, Ogbonna, Anderson who were abroad during the summer.

A chance to see some of the youngsters in action. Will be interesting to see if Moyes plays different formations in either games, like reverting to his 5 at the back formation again.

14:00 Kick off. Wycombe fixture will be live on the official website, plus the YouTube and Facebook channels.

Ipswich Town will stream the visit of the Hammers through their website. However you have to pay £10. Supporters should note the live streaming is not available to those living in Sweden, Norway, Slovenia, Croatia, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, Albania, Bosnia, Brazil, Israel, Mexico, Panama, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Dominican Republic, El Salvador and Honduras as the game is apparently being shown live in these countries on TV.

£10 to live stream a friendly is an absolute piss take by Ipswich.

[w6hammer]

Heavy winds and rain in suffolk so not sure if the game will go ahead this afternoon.

Totally agree. I hope they endure another crap season.

[vaz te's bonnet]

It may be a pisstake but they need all the money they can get down there. Clubs are seriously struggling

they may well need the money but nobody is going to pay that.

Maybe a more reasonable price would have seen many more purchase and more of a return.

Its on Bein 4 for those who have access to that.

Especially those who have the option to watch another West Ham game at the same time free of charge.

Trying to work out where everyone will play...

Coventry’s a midfielder isn’t he? I only see three defenders there (assuming Alese is one), so I suppose it’s three at the back? But there are three central midfielders there (Coventry, Wilshere and Soucek), three attacking wingers and a striker. No idea what’s going on.

I really hope Diangana isn’t being forced to play wing back.

I'm guessing it will be something like:

GK Randolph
RB Alese (is he a RB? I have no idea)
LB Cresswell
CB Balbuena
CB Coventry?
CM Soucek
CM Wilshere
RW Yarmo
LW Grady
AM Felipe
ST Haller

[S-H]

Seems odd to not play Cardoso.

Also, where is Diop and Rice

[bubbles1966]

Alese is a centre back - and he's being picked ahead of Cardozo.

I have a feeling that Coventry is filling in at RB.

[dodger]

Seems odd to not play Cardoso.

Also, where is Diop and Rice

Apparently Rice is self-isolating. Not sure about Diop.

[EastleighHammer16]

Rice and Fredericks are in quarantine. No clue where Diop is. Maybe he is as well?

[honkytonk]

I would guess 3 5 2

Alese
Balbuena
Cresswell

Diangana
Soucek
Whilshire
Coventry
Yammie

Anderson
Haller
