Re: West Ham v Middlesborough Match Thread
We are gona smash 'em. We've turned the corner. We're gona play the West Ham way. We've got our West Ham back.
(or possibly a frustrating 1-0 defeat)
Either way.....West Ham Till I Die.

Something feels a whole lot fresher and plain more honest...
There'll be a feel good factor due just to that for a while, enough to make a difference at somewhere like Boro, I think we'll do em by the odd goal.

Hopefully we can pinch this but they are very solid defensively, Ramirez can produce some moments and Traore is dangerous as he doesn't seem to know what his doing himself

Re: West Ham v Middlesborough Match Thread
I really hope we play the same 442 as the second half v palace. We didn't struggle defensively and attacked excellently.Carroll, Antonio, Feghouli and Lanzini are enough to scare the crap out of any defence.
Re: West Ham v Middlesborough Match Thread
Looking forward to this trip and confident we can bring the points home.
As others have said, 442 please Slav.

I'm after two tickets, posted in the Match Tickets forum but getting pretty desperate now so thought I'd throw it in here too.

Re: West Ham v Middlesborough Match Thread
can not wait for this... 8 of us heading up, 2-0, carroll brace, followed by large amounts of beer in Newcastle.
Any more being spouted about the potential warm welcome we're going to receive?

My daughter is a copper stationed at Boro and is on duty next Saturday. I mentioned about the warm reception us Hammers might receive to her but it all seems a bit quiet at the moment but I would be careful on Saturday lads!

Stay happy lads....but manage the expectations! After all, one swallow doesn't make a great BJ.
Lets hope our boys stay focused and can stay in FU Payet mode!

They have the 4th best defensive record in the league but have only managed 17 goals.
2-0 to us, Lanzini brace.

I know my West Ham.
An utterly inept performance with a frustratingly narrow loss thrown in.

Re: West Ham v Middlesborough Match Thread
This has got 1-0 written all over it. To whom though i'm not sure. Feck it i'll stick my neck out and say us. Noble penalty.
I like Negredo by the way. Mad how he's ended up at Boro. I'd have him at West Ham all day long.

Re: West Ham v Middlesborough Match Thread
I'll take a point away from home against these. Bigger teams than us haven't scored many if any against these.
I got a baaaaaaddddd feeling on this one.
0-0, 1-1 or an unfortunate 1-0 win to boro

Re: West Ham v Middlesborough Match Thread
I'm not sure it was a flat 4-4-2 that we played in the second half on Sat, I thought it was more of a fluid 4-2-3-1 with Antonio joining Carroll from the left hand side. Feghouli on the right and Lanzini just behind dictating play
There was a lot of lovely interchanges of positions in that second half, which was highlighted with the delightful third goal.
The same 4-2-3-1 to start at Boro that finished the Palace game please
