Hammers look for piece of history

|

Liverpool_FCHammers badgeDavid Gold is expectant believing the mighty Irons have an outstanding chance of completing a famous double over Liverpool for the first time in 51 years.

He explained that we could hardly be getting away to 2016 with every top player now almost available with the exception of Diafra Sakho.

And he said: “I think we can win against Liverpool as I saw a team playing with enormous self belief and skill in the second half of the game against Southampton. It would be nice to get an historic double.

“To come from behind after that run of draws recently to beat Southampton showed precisely what this team and squad is now about. They excite me and I am particularly pleased for Michail Antonio.

“He has shown exactly the right attitude and has grabbed his chance very well indeed. To see him run 70 yeards at the end of the game was extraordinary.

“A I’ve said before, I don’t fear any team and I really am looking for a win tomorrow. There are so many hopes and expectations again with  Manu Lanzini and Dim Payet back.

And let’s not forget Andy Carroll who is looking sharper and dharper and may have a point to prove against his former team!”

    The first of many doubles over the top teams,
    Carroll must start until Sakho if fit and Payet and Lanzini around him with Valencia,Antonio and Zarate ,paying off them it’s as a good forward line as any with Moses as well every team will worry how to play against us
