womblemaster Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 oh comon get a grip, it was nailed on that smith was gonna captian the cup runs this year. As long as it keeps him out of the premiership sides, then am happy enuff. AM excited by this game, as will be missing sundays viewing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Five o Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Hope we play something like this, but probably someone like Smith will be included http://www.footballuser.com/Formations/2011/08/200628_Newcastle_United.jpg I might be lost, but is Abaid DM/CM? Always struck me as a winger/am type. Change him and Gosling maybe? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Think Tiote should play in this one honestly! seemed off-pace in the last couple of games and this one will help him get back to full match fitness. Also Vuckic, Ba, Marveaux, Gosling need to be involved..as for Smith i almost forgot we had him..almost. Hell no! Tiote shouldn't play, and neither should he be brought on. Smith will be fine as he will nto be partnered with Nolan this time around. Smith and Gosling will be okay, or triple up with Guthrie in there too.

Shak Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Gosling and Vuckic in the middle though surely? No reason to play Smith at all, he's a disgrace. Obertan and Marv on the wings, Ba and Best up front. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he'll look to bring them on later. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 nolan was holding smith back i've f***ing heard it all now Nolan's lack of contribution in midfield made an already hellish player, far worse. YES!!! A West Ham man says ... Not much mention of Nolan on this thread. He is our captain, our main man and he should of led by example tonight. When in fact he was constantly moaning and played a terrible game. He really was sh*t and to be quite honest I wouldn't give him more than 5/10 in most of our games this season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troll Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Speaking of which, I couldn't help but notice Nolan repeated last year's trick at Stevenage, last night against Aldershot. West Ham fans already wondering why their midfield keeps getting overun. http://www.kumb.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=134242&st=0&sk=t&sd=a The change in their opinions on him in just four pages is brilliant.

ToonImms Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 If Tiote plays that will just be another yellow card. We cannot afford for him to get a needless booking tonight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Won't be disappointed if we are knocked out. Can't believe anyone has this attitude tbf. We haven't won anything in how long? Should be going for it. Nah, I agree with Colocho. Think we need to put all our efforts into our depressing league campaign - it takes effort and commitment to finish 15th you know! fuck the trophy, we've had plenty of those in the last 40 years...

Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 3 or 4 changes did Pards say? Reckon Gosling and Smith in for Tiote and Cabaye. Williamson in for Colo. Marveaux for Jonas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That last page is hilarious. They've just given the guy a five year deal, and he is getting outrun by Aldershot players. If Sam doesn't get in a really dynamic midfielder to play in there alongside him, thay are dead meat. They will turn on Noaln quite badly, soon enough. Can almost guarantee it.

Ginola Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Even though I've already said what team I'd like us to play, here's what I think we'll go with: Harper Simpson - Willo - Saylor - Ferguson Smith/Abeid - Gosling Obertan - Vuckic - Marveaux Ba/Best Wouldn't be too bothered with that as long as it's Abeid and not Smith that starts.

There is no way Vukic and Abeid should be responsible for the middle of the park against the likes of Scunny. It could knock their development if anything.
