Gold: ‘Hammers will field a strong team to win!’

|

jelavic (1)West Ham Chairman David Gold has told West Ham fans that Slaven Bilic will field a strong team tomorrow night to win although he admitted there might be some changes.

Gold told his 123,000 twitter followers “I’m sure there will be a few changes but we will take a strong team to Leicester to WIN dg”

Whatever happens Michel Antonnio and Nikica Jelavic will not be included in tomorrow’s action as both are cup tied.

AntonioAntonio played in the League cup first round for Nottingham Forest scoring two late goals but it was not enough to overcome Walsall who won 4-3 after a 90th minute penalty.

Jelavic also played the first round of the League Cup for Hull City, after he played the first 60 minutes of the draw against Accrington Stanley before being substituted by Chuba Akpom. Hull eventually won the match 4-3 on penalties after drawing 2-2 after extra time. Jelavic took no part in the second round of the league cup when Hull beat Rochdale 1-0 to go through to the third round. Jelavic joined the Hammers just six days later.

    Tuesday to the weekend is plenty of time to get over the game anyway,if there are any little niggles the player can be rested,Sakho and Payet,Reid and Cresswell,Noble and Moses possible need the whole game off as they have played so much but that would still
    Leave a strong team
    Randolph
    Jenks,Collins,Henry,Hendrie
    Oxford,Callum
    Samulsun,Carroll,Zarate,Lanzini
    Bench Adrien,Tomkins,Moses,Lee,Knoyle and Noble or another
    Good side can play same style rest key player give youngsters a start and WIN

  • COYI@HK Ching says:

    As Hendrie and Samuelson play in tonight’s development squad match, I would predict a pretty strong line up like following:

    Randolph
    Jenkinson Oxford Collins Cresswell
    Cullen Obiang
    Lanzini Zarate Moses
    Carroll

  • BrookingtoDevonshire says:

    Be interested to see who plays for the Development side tonight.
    This would be a good gage to see who of the youngsters might be in the squad.

  • BrookingtoDevonshire says:

    Spiegel, Knoyle, Hendrie, Dobson, Chambers, Onariase, Parfitt-Williams, Browne, Brown, Samuelsen, Antonio
    Subs: Nasha, T.Brown (GK), Page, Pask, Belic

    No Cullen, Lee,and Oxford.Thus expect them to be on the bench at least.

    • TysonM says:

      Yeah i had a peek at the dev team.Looks like at least Cullen,Oxford & Lee will be playing some part tomorrow night.Which i guess we all suspected would be the case 😉

  • slaven a laugh says:

    Hendrie and knoyle playing for development team. Shame because I feel jenks and cress need a rest. the city game took a lot out of our boys especially the defenders. I would play Carroll jelavic Randolph zarate Collins Oxford Cullen … In fact I would play a completely different eleven to the team that played city. Still a strong team with internationals in it and how else are these players going to get a chance to show what they can do and prove they’re worthy of a place in the first team?

  • bubs says:

    Jelavic cup tied,
    Henry not playing tonight
    Expect Cullen,Oxford Henry,Zarate,Carrol,Collins,Randolph plus 4 others to start,
    Who knows ?

  • slaven a laugh says:

    Forgot About Henry. Be good to see Henry get a game. Would like to see Hendrie play left back but he played for development team tonight didn’t he?
