I don't think anyone is even slightly interested in West Ham defending deep against a Cypriot pub team. That cunt Moyes will hail getting into a quarter final of a two bob Intertoto lookalike as something special though. It's not.

Nice one, Charley!

Let's hope we can put this to bed early on, then try and score as many as possible...

Don't care about this shit tonight, but look forward to the draw tomorrow when our path to the final will be known. I'm hoping we have the second legs at home.

Moyes stating yesterday that our new players are getting accustom to the PL a bit too late they need to train for the Championship

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Larnaca AEK - Official Match Thread

I care.

These Thursday nights afford me an easy and accessible access to watch my team from a decent lower tier seat and the atmosphere has been excellent.

We take tonights result for granted out our peril in order to WIN this outright we have to approach every game as if it is a Final.

The attendance has been affected by the 1st leg result, our performances in general this Season and the transport strikes but I am hopeful that we can get an atmosphere going and see this out in a way that builds confidence for the next round and the league too.

Still Moyes out though.

Oh and Twolefts team is perfect.

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Larnaca AEK - Official Match Thread

Should be an utter formality. No game for a few weeks so no need to really rest players. Won;t make for any great atmosphere or spectacle but the tie really is (or should be) done and dusted.

maybe protect anyone in danger of a suspension regarding yellow cards or anyone with any sort of minor injury or niggle.

Give Scamacca at least 30-45 mins, and anyone else coming back into the team. This is a really useful run out.

Or hey (laughing as I type this) use this game to experiment with a 'better' gameplan which will be more suited to winning games in the premier league. Sadly he'll probably have them relentlessly practicing up and unders to Cornet and Bowen for 90 minutes. Perfect it and southampton won't have a clue, lads.....

Be nice to see some of our young starlets tonight....

I wonder if Moyes has even told them there's a game on?

Bar the Downes suspension

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Larnaca AEK - Official Match Thread

Field a strong side as we haven’t got another game for a few weeks but I think we should experiment on a few things.

Play Kehrer in midfield alongside Rice and see how does.

Go 442 and play Scamacca & Ings up front together.

Areola

Johnson Zouma Ogbonna. Cresswell

Kehrer Rice

Bowen. Cornet


Scamacca Ings

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Larnaca AEK - Official Match Thread

As others have said, no games for a while after this, so go full strength and take the opportunity to work on the attacking side of the game, which has been sadly lacking. Yes, by all means give a few squad players and youngsters a run-out later on if/when we're secure.

Areola

Kehrer Zouma Aguerd Emerson

Soucek Rice Lanzini

Bowen Ings Cornet

Moyes on Scamacca

“We want him to be physically working hard for the team, getting in the right goalscoring positions, playing like a 6’4 centre-forward and covering all the ground – all the things we’d want from him,” he continued.

“I’ve got to say in the early part of the season, we saw that, we really did, but I don’t think we’ve seen it since his injury in a friendly at Fulham around World Cup time. He’s not come back from that level that he was at when he first arrived, really, and we want him to get back to that.

“Do I think he’s going to come back soon [to his best form]? I hope so.”

Must a night to see Ings and Scamacca together

Scmacca Ings


Dont want Fornals or Soucek in the squad..... Ings is incredibly lucky to get a start after sundays showing.

Fill the bench with 18s and 23s who deserve it and give them a chance to show what they can do

Downes would play for Cornet if he wasnt suspended

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Larnaca AEK - Official Match Thread

Be interesting to see how the imbecile who allegedly manages our team sets about defending a two goal lead at home against what is essentially a nationwide side. Like others I would like to see Scamacca start in an attacking team, it would also be good to see some kids get a shout and Lanzini get more time. The latter still offers much more than some off our expensive signings!

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Larnaca AEK - Official Match Thread

I'd love to know on what basis Moyes "knows" for certain that Scamacca's form has dropped off given how many games he has played since his return from injury... what data tells him this .. is it his running about ability in training his scoring in training or what????

Surely you can't know for certain unless you actually play the poor bugger.. why have him on the bench if his data is so bad...
