West Ham vs Swansea City Official Match Thread

[Ibbyham]

Hope West Ham bounce back from the disappointed match last week. Antonio, Lanzini, Fernandez and Collins won't feature but we have Obiang back. Question is how Bilic will use the squad? I reckon he will put 3-4-3 formation:

Hart

Reid
Ogbonna
Fonte

Zabaleta
Noble
Kouyate
Masuaku

Ayew
Chico
Arnautovic.

Carroll will come in 2nd half sub to replace Ayew. Hope for a good win we badly needed and good news that Antonio, Collins and maybe Lanzini will be back for the Burnley game with Lanzini on sub bench which I hope Argentina won't select him.

Predictions:

West Ham 2 - 0 Swansea.

Records against Swans at West Ham home:

West Ham won 19
Draw 5
Swansea won 2
West Ham scored: 66
Swansea scored: 25

Coming over for game from Belfast Law of averages for us as we got tanked heavily on my four visits last season.
Fancy a tight win for the Mighty Hammers⚒⚒

Brilliant stuff.

I'm expecting a 2-0 win for the Hammers but maybe a loss would be better as most want Bilic out.

You were supposed to reply immediately with the message "links will appear here" you dick

[IRON-MAN ⚒]

6 pointer in my eyes

Sorry mate, I just highlighted the "links will appear here" at the first post.

Hart,
Zabaleta, Fonte, Reid, Cresswell
Arnautovic, Noble, Kouyate, Masuaku
Ayew, Hernandez

Or Byram right midfield and Arnie on the left.
Although I'd quite like to see Masuaku have a go at left mid. I don't trust him defensively but he's good going forward.

Not Ayew's biggest fan but I reckon he could link up well with Hernandez.

Massive game, must win.

Be watching this in sunny Mexico


It's a biggy ( September against Swansea at home and it's a big 6 pointer ) how far we have come. Lol

[BCHammer]

I would actually start Andy in this one, we need balls in the box from every possible direction. Assuming Obiang is actually 100% fit

Hart
Zaba Fonte Reid Cress
Arnie Obiang Haksabanovic Masuaku
Hernandez Carroll

[palerider]

The ease with which Lascelles headed the winner virtually unchallenged against them suggests that if there's any game you play 'wor Andy, it's this. And at the moment, Arhur is a better bet supplying the ammo than Cresswell.

Hart

Fonte
Reid
Ogbonna

Zabaleta
Arnautovic
Obiang
Kouyate or Noble
Masuaku

Hernandez
Carroll
