It depends on who starts. If we go with a Leon or Carroll midfield then we can win the game because we will control it. If we go with a Shelvey midfield, we're going to have a tough time of it.
Leon starts. This going to be a very strong line-up. No Routledge on the bench. I'm confident of a good performance and result today.
Well you was correct, afterall you did say that Routs wasn't on the bench Glad it's Leon and Ki together. Looks like Monk has realise that is should either be Leon/Carroll/Ki in these positions now.
Two predictions .First prediction , a 2 - 1 away win for us. Second prediction , a red card for Andy Carroll following a vicious elbow on Bartley
Draw game for me. west ham are a good side and are rightly favourites and will be a tough nut to crack and the same could equally describe us. both teams will have to be at their best because if one is not then the other could easily break away and gain the upper hand and go on to win....this is not a fixture that i would bet on as i cant see a winner...
WTF is going on ? This is terrible so far. Are we hoping that they won't score if we let them attack for 90 mins. We are sitting back and there is no pressure from us in their half of the field.
getting f**ing hamered at the moment. Hope they pick it up and put a bit of effort in. Piss poor, I am sure we are scared of them ffs. That goal changes this post doesnt it.
