Hammers could go third this weekend

|

championsIf results go our way this weekend  it is possible in theory for West Ham to leap frog in third place in the Premier League table. An away win against Burnley coupled with draws or losses for Man United, Swansea and Spurs would put us in 4th place but a heavy loss for Southampton and a significant win for the Hammers could put us third in the table on goal difference over the saints.

Spurs face Man City away in the early Saturday kick off, while Swansea face Stoke away on Sunday and Manchester United face West Brom away on Monday. Southampton face Sunderland at home on Saturday.

Maybe we shouldn’t get too carried away but it would be great to occupy a champions league place however briefly. We can always dream.  Andy Carroll recently told the Evening Standard “‘We could definitely play in the Champions League in the new stadium. The quality is there, and with the new stadium coming we have everything else going for us.”
