    Do it now, time is of no importance, as long as it is before kick off.

    It won't; he hasn't been that good so far, I for one am dying to get a look at Maiga / Yossi
    Hard to pick a winner, either defense could just implode and throw away the game, both sides have done it before.

    The only player to kick the keeper in the head whilst the keeper is on the floor, and injure himself more than the keeper-what a twat

    That "@solent Been at #Saintsfc training. Bizarre to see @rchap04 biting Morgan Schneiderlin for most of the practise game. #jaws" quote was a joke.

    Someone said that they saw Ramirez in asda and that he was walking without crutches but with a bit of a limp. Hopefully back sooner than reported.

    Gazzaniga
    Clyne Fonte Yoshida Fox
    Davis Schneiderlin JWP
    Puncheon Lambert Lallana
    Subs: Davis, Richardson, Hooiveld, Chaplow, Mayuka, Guly, Rodriguez.

    Prediction: 1-1, Lallana to open the scoring and Collins to equalise towards the end. They're solid at the back so we won't score many but I don't think they'll pose us with a huge attacking threat. My worry is Jarvis on the right and Fox giving him space to send balls into the box for the likes of Carroll, etc. I would personally take a draw because it looks like West Ham are going to establish themselves really well this season.

    Not as much as a missing Ramirez methinks.

    Unlike the Everton game, I think having a real go could be the answer in this one. West Ham's defence might not be our sort of standard, but neither is it rock-solid, water-tight. And besides, why pack the midfield when West Ham are more than capable of just by-passing it.

    I think we'll lose 3-1, simply because I can't see us handling Carroll. If he's not peppering our goal, he'll be knocking the ball down for the likes of Nolan to run onto. But at least us setting up to have a go will, I think, have the greatest chance of proving me wrong. I'm struggling to see a way we can set up against them with the aim of getting a point, and then ultimately get that point.

    Gazzaniga
    Clyne Fonte Yoshida Fox
    Morgan Davis
    Puncheon Lambert Rodriguez Lallana

    (Though more 4-2-2-2 than 4-2-4.)

    2-2 or west ham 1-2 Southampton (they score early and then we spend the first half chasing but score two goals past 70 minutes)

    Team Line Up:
    Gazzaniga
    Clyne Fonte Yoshida Fox
    Davis Schneiderlin JWP
    Puncheon Lambert Lallana

    Agree we should start quick and have a right go. Wigan tore their defence apart so no reason why we can't score at least a couple..

Wigan tore their defence of kids and reserve players who were on trial apart, in a cup where West Ham lost against Aldershot and Sheff W last year due to BFS not giving a damn about cup competitions, so no reason why we can't score at least a couple..



    Bzzz. Touchy aren't we! We will see on Saturday.

    Found this on an article on KUMB:


    Last season West Ham were forced to play the majority of the corresponding fixture with only ten men after Southampton striker Billy Sharp feigned injury in order to get Matt Taylor sent off. The game finished in a 1-1 draw

    It would be so so so sweet - I don't think I'd be able to bear it if we lost

    Hi SF4L! Yes I'm working with a couple of Hammers and they will be giving it large if we lose! Just hope Nigel is at his most inspiring.
