West Ham (A) Pre Match

Recommended Posts

Posted

My punt would be west ham to score at least one from second ball on corners. We never have any body inbetween the penalty spot and the edge of the box.

For some reason I still blindly expect us to get something on Saturday, even though our record in London is v poor.

Time for the reintroduction of Dean Hammond.

It amazes me that everyone fears Carroll (who can be a one trick pony at times) yes he is big and good in the air, a good target man, but Valencia and Sakho can be far more destructive than Carroll.

I fully expect you to face all 3 of them Saturday with Downing pushed up high behind them, we can score goals from anywhere this season which we really missed last year :xmasbiggrin:

 

You don't realise quite how bad we are at set pieces. You will have an absolute field day against us in that regard.

We should get this going at West Ham

 

If that happens I'm off home.

As you've pointed out Carroll is good in the air - we're woeful at defending crosses and set pieces, the exact sort of service Carroll thrives off. If he plays and doesn't score I'd be shocked.

Our only hope is like the Man City game,frustrate them,do that and the home fans will soon start getting agitated.

Even though we are bottom nobody has gave us a hammering,so hopefully we don't get hammered by the hammers(sorry couldn't resist)

Also don't want to lose this,a lot of my relatives are from Ilford.

Am I nuts for thinking we can get something out of this? I was really encouraged by the performance against Man City and I just hope we stick with the same or similar starting XI. Look, I know we're bottom, I know we can't concentrate for the full 90 minutes and I know we never win at West Ham.

Yeah, ok, we're going to lose :(
