Biggest game we've been involved in for quite some time

Sunderland and Boro aren't showing much but right now we're the worst team in the league while all the others down there are showing something. A relegation in that stadium would be the disaster of all disasters

lose this and bilic will be sacked as week before sunderland away.

Adrain
byram kouyate fonte masuaka
antonio noble fernandez lanzini
carroll ayew

Subs randolph collins nordsvelt fegouli quinna fletcher callerei

no place for snodgrass as he has been son poor, even worse than fegouli.


Think we will struggle against sigurdsson and carroll so fernandez in there to add some bite and drive from midfield. Time to show some fight and desire west ham. lose this and I fear relegation.

next two are sunderland away - draw at best everton at home - lukako hat trick !




head says 1-1 heart 1-0 hammers

Crowd to be up for it and we need to start on front foot. concede early and I fear the worse.

Bin the ****ing manager it's simple really
He lacks the mentality to inspire this squad,

He looks beat in any interviews and he let's his personal reasons get ahead of his team selections

Randolph has been dross all year, yet bilic continues to pick him

We need to play masuaku LB and cresswell LW with both helping each other put, neither can do one job correctly so get both of them tag teaming up,

2-1 loss. We are incapable of defending.

Bilic intimated in post match interview that it will be an ugly game. Don't know what that means but if its 'do not lose' mentality than we will lose. I have absolutely no faith in him being in any position to utilise our players capabilities to tactically 'control' a game for the majority of the 90 mins.

Clement will probably say 'target Byram and their slow centre halves and they will panic, make mistakes, the fans will boo them, their heads will go down and we will win' .

The depressing thing is I have no idea what Bilic will say in a winning or losing position. All I do know is we lose when we are in front and that the players generally play poorly after the half-time interval.

Are we allowed to boo Randolph if his name is read out in the starting line up?

GK-Adrian
DC-Collins
DC-Fonte
DC-Kouyate
WBL-Masuaku
WBR-Byram
CM-Noble
CM-Fernandes
W-Antonio
W/IF-Lanzini
ST-Carroll

We need to have a proper go at them, go hard or go home, time to throw caution to the wind, play direct and get the ball forward, now is not the time for tika-taka football.

Referring more to the walkouts when its level and there's something to play for. It's a Saturday, 3pm and the biggest game of the season. Also it's gonna be nice weather. Not sure what people are playing at if they're leaving on 70 mins at the weekend (if it's tight)

The only thing I am sure of in this game is that there will be goals. I reckon anywhere between 4 and 10. It's going to be insane. 2 teams that can't defend and 2 teams that collapse the minute a goal goes in.

West Ham 4 - 3 Swansea
Carroll(21,56) Sigurdsson(4,48)
Lanzini(77) Jordan Ayew(66)
Noble pen(88)
