I reckon the Hammers goal machine (Papa Bouba Diop), a.k.a. The Wardrobe will score for them. The ball will go in off of his Chest(of Drawers), and when he goes off injured later in the match and is rushed to hospital, Big Sam will sit by his Bedside(Cabinet), and will give him a Dressing(Table) down. Well, after all, at 6' 5", he is a Tall Boy. Come on, "furniture related" jokes are all the rage at the moment.......
Well if he is rushed to hospital he wont be in a position to come out of the closet in the changing rooms after the game Let's just hope he isn't in the chair, buying celebratory drinks on Saturday evening. He will be helped into his kit by Taffy the Butler - his Welsh Dresser
