Match Day Thread West Ham United vs Southampton 25/09/2016 4pm Kick-off

I think it's going to be a close, open game. Whichever way you choose in a 3-2 win.

 

I want to say that Cuco has filled in at LB for a match at some point. Can't remember who against, but probably cup game (one of the EL qualifiers last year maybe?).

And it would allow him to cut in from the left flank, and hit a rocket into the top corner from his right peg.

 

Wouldn't work as it needs to be the outside of his right foot.

 

Please, Noble is the mouthiest ****er on a football pitch.

 

You'll Obviously See Him In Defence Against West Ham!

 

Going to be a tough game for Saints, feels like we're not only up against the 11 men in claret on the pitch, but also the entire media this afternoon.

Listening on 5live, they've not mentioned Saints yet in 40 minutes of build up.

 

My only available build-up to the match is this forum - and it's 50% talk about West Ham getting all the build-up!

 

On the flip side though, I think most neutrals will be on our side. So many fans out there who are against West Ham getting this new stadium for basically nothing. I'm desperate to win this.

 

pleased with that line up. Stoked. Clean sheet 0-2

 

yeah, all stirred up by the BBC, yet not a word about the 40m gift boris gave spurs for their stadium just after they got 100m from Bale, and no one seems to complain Leicester went bankrupt instead of paying for the King Power.

Tell me, what would happen to the OS if we hadn't had it? At the end of the day we were the only viable option

 

Just realised, aside from Martina I've got the starting 11 spot on.

 

Jamie Rednapp wheeling out the same old crap about us, sold all their best players...blah blah. Lazy
Sky not picked up that Antonia played for us in their item. Bertrand going to be petrified by Antonio! Really? Rednapp must think he has turned into Messi.......as clueless as his idiot father

 

Cheese? Never tried Blue Leicester.

 

Looks like there's hardly anyone there from the tv pictures!

 

I don't understand why Charlie Austin's tattoos look like they were done in the 80s. It's like a faded old skinhead sleeve.

 

That's a fair point. Not sure why West Ham seemed to be being blamed for the situation. You've merely taken advantage of it/got a bit lucky.

 

I take his point that he's a massive threat coming in on the far post.

 

He also says it's interesting a lot. Which, when he says it, it doesn't sound as though it is.

 

Oh you can have it. But pay for it.

 

I don't get the vitriol about the OS....WHU didn't hold a gun to anyone's head. It was built for the Olympics and had to be used for something. Happens to be in London...can't honestly seeing us moan if we got a stadium for relative chicken feed because it was built in Southampton.
