West Ham v Wolves comms thread.

[Jack Russell]

Proper football is back! A very intriguing fixture this one, with both teams desperately needing a win. I think that both teams are fairly evenly matched and it will be down to who puts in the most skill, grit and determination. We are more than capable of winning this so, COYW make our day!

Team to follow

 

[hambaps]

Proper football? Have you seen the lineup?

 

[Skrilla]

Jonny at CB. That'll be interesting... have a feeling we're going to get torn apart.

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

That's not a team sheet, it's a suicide note.

 

[A wanderer from Bristol]

Is Tote injured? Not on bench i dont think

 

[Skyscraper]

Deep deep down I want us and Bruno to be amazing today win 10-0 but it will be the normal bore. Playing people out of position. With a lack of goals and at the end of it Bruno will be sacked.

 

[hollo]

Lack of height in the side will be exploited.

 

[Boss Hogg]

We’ve seen signings on the pitch before a game. I’d like to see Lage sacked on the pitch for naming that side.

 

[WKFWolf]

I don't know if I can even be *****

 

[Matt]

Same ****, different day. Bruno's last game hopefully.

 

[hollo]

Is Totti injured? Not on bench

Ptobably kicked off as wasting his time.

 

[thommo1984]

Is Tote injured? Not on bench i dont think

Yes he is

 

[sheffwolf]

West Ham have a manager who has a clue. The big difference.

 

[binners]

Is Tote injured? Not on bench i dont think

He is on the bench.....Gomez

 

[Jack Russell]

Proper football? Have you seen the lineup?

Yes, but I can't get it to post!

 

[Hanbury_Wolf]

Can't figure out this line up. Maybe semedo is CB? Maybe neves will sit in with jonny and max. God knows.

Not going to condem it until we see it unfold though

 

[A wanderer from Bristol]

Is Tote injured? Not on bench i dont think

Correcting myself. He is on the bench. Don't understand why he's not playing

 

[Ian C]

Everton winning and Coady scored. We’re a ****ing comedy.

 

[Starsky]

You've got to laugh really. He's bonkers.

 

[clivewolves]

Just win. I don't care how. A scrappy one-nil will do today.

I've got to say though if it's a back three of Otto, Neves, and Kilman it poses more questions than answers. I hope it works.

 

[Spellbinder]

Sa, Semedo, Jonny, Kilman, RAN, Neves, Nunes, Moutinho, Neto, Podence, Guedes

Sarkic, Bueno, Mosquera, Gomes, Traore, Ronan, Campbell, Adama, Costa.

 

[steve vena]

Don't know what to think....**** it!

Referee Paul Tierney

 

[Bugsy911]

An abomination of a lineup which was called out earlier and hoped it was a wrong (but suspected it wasn't).

They've made a huge mistake not sacking him a few weeks ago as its another game thrown today with that lineup.

 

[Elvis Wolf]

Where's the team sheet please and thanks?

 

[Skrilla]

If we get thumped, surely he's got to go? He's so critical of the squad that's been constructed for him, yet we can all see it's an excellent squad he isn't getting anywhere near enough out of. Tired of his excuses. Out of his depth.

 

[Eastyorksyeltz]

Correcting myself. He is on the bench. Don't understand why he's not playing

Bet he is pretty mystified as well. How can he or Mosquera ever get playing time?

 

[Tring Wolf]

If we don’t have faith in Mosquera and Toti, loaning out Coady is madness.

 

[CelebrityWolf]

Just win. I don't care how. A scrappy one-nil will do today.

I've got to say though if it's a back three of Otto, Neves, and Kilman it poses more questions than answers. I hope it works.

Poses more questions if it is that set up?

I would say it would be the daftest line up we have ever put out if that happens.

 

[Fenrir_]

Correcting myself. He is on the bench. Don't understand why he's not playing

 

[Oldgold Wolfcub]

West Ham have a manager who has a clue. The big difference.

If he cant beat the team we have announced then surely he must be gone. If he does beat us hopefully that will be it from Lage.

 

[JamesWolves]

No win here then Mr Bruno should be staying in London ready for his flight back to Lisbon

 

[Willywolf]

Really feel for Toti tbh. He was good enough to start in the premier league last season, but can’t get a game at cb over a diminutive full back. As good as Johnny can be, I feel more nervous about him playing cb than I would a young lad coming in who has always played cb.
Must be terribly frustrating for both Gomes and Yerson to know that even when a suspension or injury comes, you’re not the next in line to replace them, despite being on every match day bench.
Can see it being either an inspired master stroke, or complete disaster. Soon find out I guess.

 

[Steampunk Rules OK]

Is Tote injured? Not on bench i dont think

No he’s there.

 

[Royal wolf]

What’s the definition of insanity? Trying the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Moutinho shouldn’t be starting. Podence shouldn’t be false 9 (assuming he is)

 

[Hoganstolemywife]

Suppose that's alright as a line up tbh. Jonny has an awful stint at CB last season but he's a quality player.

Bruno probably puts Neves there though.

Despairing that he's still in charge.

 

[Bacon Sandwich]

"What would you like me to do, Davey?"
"Go back to 343, Bruno. A system you haven't played all season. And someone short at CB would help us."
"Fair enough."
"Could you play Moutinho? Everyone knows he's past it but help us out will you?"
"Sure thing, Davey"
"Any chance you could play your best midfielder as a sweeper?"
"I was thinking of it."
"And this is too much to ask - but our CBs fancy an afternoon off. Podence as a false 9 would help us no end. But I'm taking the **** now. Sorry..."

 

[woop woop barmy army]

I would say it would be the daftest line up we have ever put out if that happens.

I thought that was west ham away last season. But this year he’s trumpet himself

Now I would say that he does make his look alike Trigger look intelligent.
