    Perplexed to have Redmond over both Adams and Broja - assume it must be a fatigue thing due to internationals ?

    Pace, I'd guess. And yes, post international fatigue will probably play a part.

    Lol. It's called player management. He's resting players who have played a lot over the international break. After last season he's managing workloads.

    Glad Redmond is in, but should have been for Djenepo. Strange that KWP is dropped after such a good performance but I’m happy enough with Perraud.

    Hope Tella gets a decent chance.

    This. West Ham's weakness at the back is definitely pace.

    And I guess energy in the front press from the very start ?

    Can we all remember that West Ham are a very decent side and much better than us so it won't be a surprise if we lose? No need for meltdowns if that happens.


    Though if you disagree can we at least make it entertaining.

    Did we get the same sage advice before the Everton and MU games?

    They are, but I think we'll give them a game. Would love to get all 3, but I guess a point wouldn't be awful!

    Every time he names a team someone asks that.

    He probably has, but hopefully in a good way. Let’s wait and see

    That would require me to sign up to Facebook and I'd rather drink a gallon of petrol.

    Sorry mate you're on your own!

    I agree and think we can definitely get something. Just saying it won't be a surprise if we don't.

    I’m fine with that team.
    Yes it’s to do with resting those who were on internationals, but also playing those who’ve had two weeks training for this game all together.

    Having the Saints band blaring out of the speakers is a great way of drowning out the away fans. :)
