West Ham Utd 0-0 Chelsea (23/09/18)
Another TV game
1.30pm kick off at the LS
————- Fabianski ————-
Zaba balbuena diop Masuaku
— obiang rice wilshere———
Yarmalenko Arnie Anderson
50/50 for me between noble and Wilshere, I think Wilshere is the better player and noble was poor today but loathed to change a winning team.

Funny you say that, Carragher was regularly lauding the quality of our midfield 3 today.My_Sobriquet wrote: 50/50 for me between noble and Wilshere, I think Wilshere is the better player and noble was poor today but loathed to change a winning team.
I agree though that it should be a case of Noble or Wilshere as they are too similar to play together. Today was the first time Pellers has started a balanced team and it showed, if we are to play a flat back 4 we need to continue to play at least two defensive mids.
I'd pick the same team as today but might give Zaba a rest as I don't think he'll be able to cope with the pace of Hazard, Willian or Pedro if they target him.

I think Anderson has the attributes to play the noble role excellently as does lanzini.

Re: ⚽ West Ham Utd v Chelsea: match thread (23/9)
I don’t think Noble had a bad game at all. I think Wilshere is the better footballer of the two but the midfield remains unchanged for me.
I’d agree with changing Zaba for Fredericks. I don’t think he’s got the legs for Alonso/Hazard. A monumental test for Fredericks too, though. His pace will be required however, which is a trait Zaba doesn’t have. Shame we can’t mould the two together.
Chelsea look good, we look like we will still concede easily. Defence was static against full backs crosses a few times today and tried to step up when Niasse was left on his own 8 yards out and really should’ve scored. That falls to Giroud it hits the back of the net.
I’ll take a draw all day long but think we will lose by two or three.

Noble has earned his start against their lot. Wilshere is yet to have a decent 45 for us.Yea Why Not wrote:Wilshere in for Noble and hope that Hazard has an off day. Thats all really
Re: ⚽ West Ham Utd v Chelsea: match thread (23/9)
I think the team without Wilshere looked like a pipe that had had a blockage cleared. We just moved the ball quickly and easily through midfield with obiang and Noble alternating positions. Balanced midfield, don't change it!

Re: ⚽ West Ham Utd v Chelsea: match thread (23/9)
Anyone know what happened to Ryan Fredericks this weekend? Was he injured or dropped?
Hazard/Pedro/Willian latching on to Zabaleta with Alonso overlapping is my only concern ahead of this one. Potentialyl Fredericks for Zabaleta but otherwise stick with the same team as yesterday.

That´s a good point. Think we have the vice-versa situation:Knighter10WHU wrote:Anyone know what happened to Ryan Fredericks this weekend? Was he injured or dropped?

Fredericks has pace and offers a lot in the offensive, but has been awful in defensive duties so far.
Zabaleta is his counterpart.
Difficult to decide, who should play.
A Zabaletricks or Fredereta would be fine
Re: ⚽ West Ham Utd v Chelsea: match thread (23/9)
Ogbonna for Balbuena and Chicha for Noble. We can get something from this!
