54 Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Looking at the training pics, either the players that played on Tuesday are having a recovery day, or Howe is really going to throw a curve ball for this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Seems like Maxi is first in line for a start to replace Bruno, based on Eddie's press conference. Probably the right call, for me, though I have just watched the Man City highlights back. Imagine if he performed like that even every other game, man, we'd be unstoppable.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Have to put a little faith in ASM I reckon, he's clearly been working hard and deserves a bit of reward for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnonel Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 We need to keep Willock and Joe in midfield now. Have enough depth on the wings Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERTOON Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Wouldn’t mind seeing ASM and Gordon start and give Miggy a rest. Bit of freshness to the side and gives West Ham something new to think about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-421 Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 (edited) Wasn't till I looked at the fixtures I realised we haven't played these yet this season. Guessing the match against them down there was postponed for a cup or the WC? Along with the Brigthon H game, it still has to have a date confirmed.

frankpingel Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Next three games going to be tense given the timescale to the cup final. No injuries or suspensions please and 3 points here would be great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it was more like a shot on target every 2minutes and a shot at goal every 90seconds. Their keeper looked knackered at the end.

Kanji Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Would be poor man management of Maxi to not start him at home on Saturday imo. He's been grafting his bollocks off it seems and now is the chance to do this. I suspect Maxi in for Bruno, with JL, Willock and Sean in midfield. Gordon off the bench.

Brought back a few memories too... Tino with his socks rolled all the way down...the terrible pitch...Ferdinands thumping headers and more And yes, thats Peter Shilton on the West Ham Bench.

Jonas Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Was a great response to the Man United game. Response of champions I dared wonder. Was surely inevitable but baring that Man U game in mind, it maybe took Tino's enigmatic genius to unlock a goal. A wild card. Don't know if cautionary tales but The first time I was knowingly nervous about not being nervous was this fixture in 93/94. Played indoor football with mates around noon but felt like I should have been paying some dues and worrying instead ahead of such a big game (they all were then) and that it might cost us. Bricking it ahead of time whilst playing there had worked okay against Man United. Worked out though. None of the events of the fixture in 89 if we don't win please. 'sack the board' pitch invasions and people setting fire to their scarves and shirts at the back of the Gallowgate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Boy..we've had some cracking games against these at home haven't we? Obviously that 3-0 win in 96 stands out for how incredible we were that night. But, I've always fondly remember the 4-0 win in 2022 too. It was our first game of the season but played on a Monday night on Sky. We battered them and think Hugo Viana made his debut and was a big reason why I have remembered that game so much. Also special mention of the one with Jonas scoring. Special that. Will settle for a 2-0 win tomorrow. Howay the Lads! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUFCDoog Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Was my first ever game at SJP that one, the 4 nil. Great memories, my dad had took me up a few weeks earlier for the Barcelona friendly, not expecting it to sell out he hadn't sorted tickets, we got there and there was none left. I was devastated, tears, tantrum the lot...and that was just my dad! We were just about to head back home then had the idea of checking if there was any tickets left for the first home game and thankfully got some in level 7 for the West Ham match. Turned out to be the perfect first home game, was 0-0 at half time as well! Repeat that tomorrow would be just fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
