We obviously don’t want to risk triggering Kral’s obligation.

Hope Vlasic isn’t playing on the left again. I really don’t believe that’s his strongest position. Nor is it helping him settle in.

Moyes sure is taking his time with Kral isn’t he!?

Strong team on paper. Hopefully we can get the job done and 1-2 of the youngsters come off the bench. :hamm:

We have to take calculated risks
You're right, we can't, for me though this is the one that I'd have gone full strength in. Win the group.

We don't have much going forward on the bench. We will need a good first half.

Brave move from Moyes tonight. He clearly feels that the starting 11 has enough and if not Bowen, Fornals and deccers from the bench.

Regardless of the result I'm happy with this 11. It's a calculated risk.

I do personally think Moyes takes away following in to consideration in terms of not taking the piss with under strength first teams. I think no fans tonight made it easier to put out a weaker 11.

Not sure I’m a fan of that side…largely down to Masuaku at left back

Hope I’m wrong - lot will be down to attitude I’m sure.

My sources just confirmed to me that Vlasic is scoring his first goal for West Ham tonight.

No questions about my source at this time.
