[prophet:marginal]

QUIZ

Arrange correctly this sequence, in terms of our victories, draws, losses against this lot:

25, 27, 24.

Quite the split, really, 76 matches in total.

Anyway, I would select the following, fitness permitting

------------------------Areola

Johnson - Zouma - Ogbonna - Emerson

-------------Downes ----------Manu

Benrahma --------Fornals ---------Scarles

----------------Ings










Only kidding

-----------------Scam

[mumbles87]

Zouma and kehrer for me, ogbonna needs resting for the league

[West Ham Matt]

Biggest game of our season.

Must win

Let's put them to the sword...

[prophet:marginal]

Ings

[El brooko79]

Ings must be cup tied unless the rules have changed.

[Paolopaul]

Areola
Johnson Kehrer Aguerd Cresswell
Soucek Downes
Bowen Fornals Benrahma
Antonio

Strong team but plenty protected for the upcoming league games.

[Bubbles Fortuna]

How many people are going to put Ings in their starting 11s?

I'm going for a conservative 19.

9 of them being Hammerman.

[Burnley Hammer]

A bit of rotation is OK so long as they're still our seasoned pro's - ie Cresswell, Fornals, Downes, Soucek, Lanzini, etc. We need a win to keep the momentum going and confidence high so I don't think this is the time to be throwing the kids in. Ings should play I think to get him up to speed quickly.

[Shabu]

Antonio Ings

Attack! Attack! Attack!

So if no Ings I'll have to change my whole system...

I'll get back to you after some meditation.

[Hammer1972]

Huge game, good thing we have 2 months to prepare for it.

[Shabu]

Huge game, good thing we have 2 months to prepare for it.

F*ck Me, this match thread is f*cked :lol:

Cup-tied players, date wrong by months. All we need now is for a formation containing 12 players and we're sorted.

[HammerMan2004]

Play the team that won today with Areola in for Fabianski. Get some consistency. No real sense changing it all again when they need to be in good form for Newcastle in two weeks.

You know they build the Rolls Royce engines at Derby?

[Bond Holder 59]

You know they build the Rolls Royce engines at Derby?

Yeah, but they mostly took off from the south east side of London, and had loads of success over Wembley and the London docks. Sound familiar?

[funky chicken]

Same team that started against Everton, please. Let’s keep the momentum going. There’s enough of a break until our next league game.

If Antonio is sold before then, I’d shove Bowen up front and bring Fornals in.

[Puff Daddy]

We'll be fine for this one. My claret underpants will be freshly washed and aired in good time for kick off
