Moyes on Kudus starting a game
|
|
BBC Sport after Newcastle game asked Moyes what Kudus has to do to get a Premier League start for the Hammers.
Moyes answered
“He (Kudus) will be in the team for years to come so we are not in a huge hurry,” Moyes said matter-of-factly.
“The team is getting good results (so there’s no need to change at the moment).
“But he can play a big role in the future.”

So he, that is Moyes, is unable to admit he is wrong.
But I agree, Kudus is the future while Moyes is certainly not.

Personally I would love to see Paqueta, JWP in midfield with Kudus in a No 10 role but we know Moyes will play Soucek, who to be fair seems to have found his goal scoring touch again since Rice left as it allows Soucek to get forward. Only way you can get Kudus in if he persists with Tomas is on the left, unless you play Lucas there but that would be a waste.

Given Sunday's performance Kudus replaces Antonio, not rocket science

Kudus came on as a ten, he changed the game.
If he starts it should be there, an extra attacking outlet not replacing another. Let him link the play get Antonio more involved, don't have him up front alone.

I'm not going to get worked up over these comments yet. He's hardly going to say "Yes, he started next game". Anything can happen in the next 2 week.
But if he doesn't start then there will be question marks.

“We’re really pleased with him,” said Moyes. “We’ve brought substitutes on in the past who haven’t been able to have much of an impact. But today Kudus was able to provide that for us.
That's Kudus in the super sub role now then...

Yeah, it's alright him starting, but what's he like at defensive headers?

Another let's have a pop at Moyes thread?
Moyes is bang on at the mo. Make him work for it. We're not struggling as a team and getting good results. Won't be long before Kudus is in the team and, hopefully, irreplaceable.
Think a forward three of Paq, Kudus and Bowen behind Antonio is very exciting. And Paq has shown he doesn't get lost out wide too. Beautiful crosser of the ball, and is able to drift and heavily influence the game whilst Emerson has the left side locked down.
Good time to be a West Ham fan.

It is frustrating and IMO he should be starting, but Moyes also has a point in that he will be a starter here for years, it's 100% inevitable, just hope it's sooner rather than later.

Moyes out etc etc
He did the same with Paqueta and he turned out alright.
I trust Moyes more than I trust the FIFA playing twats who post on here.

Given we never play an out and out centre forward (Antonio naturally drifts to the wing), I think a fluid forward line/false 9 interchanging mostly with Bowen makes most sense.
People wanting him and Paqueta playing in the midfield 3 is never going to happen. Alvarez is an absolute guaranteed starter for the job he does, JWP is never being left out and nor should he given what he brings in goal contributing moments. It’s therefore one of Kudus or Paqueta on the assumption you leave out Soucek, with the other on the left.
Paqueta has actually been very effective from the left and has a fairly free role rather than playing as a winger. As good as he is centrally, his link up with Emerson down the left is a real positive recently.

He'll be in the starting line-up when Paqueta is flogged off in Jan.

Twoleftfeet calling people twats and making a cunt of himself
Paqueta signed on August 29 made his debut Tottenham as a sub 2 days later, then 3 days later started against Chelsea and was a regular from then.
Yeah that's exactly the same as what has happened with Kudus.

The whole world and its dog knows Villa will be delighted if Kudus doesn’t start next game.
It’s getting to the stage Moyes is beginning to look like a fool.

There's only 1 person on this planet that thinks soucek should start over kudus.
Soucek big improvement over last season, but for me there's no comparison. Especially as soucek playing shunts paqueta out left.

Soucek is playing well and scoring - but i think we know Kudus would offer more going forward.
Ok ease him in dont burn him out, were just fans in a hurry for some excitement.
(i'll accept that if he'd been on earlier on Sunday we could have won the game, also Paquete should be central not shunted out wide.)
BUT
you know what, i'll trust Moyes on this, its a long season and keeping his powder dry for when we need something different is maybe a good idea. you want to be playing your best at the business end of the season (Fergie said so)

Ridiculous Matthew. You think Antonio can perform consistently well until say March? Always assuming he's uninjured of course.
Soucek may be scoring a bit more, but he certainly isn't performing at any sort of level that we need right now in that midfield role.
