Tomorrow at Sunderland will be all about how we start!
There’s been a criticism of West Ham at home that they have surrendered too much space to the opposition as they have attempted to hit them on the break.
That may well be the case but I’m sure they will turn that around soon as the new way of playing develops. However tomorrow at Sunderland we have to make a quick start and quieten down the already anxious fans and players.
Do that, grab a goal and we’ll have ’em on the run in a big way and could go onto an even better win than at Arsenal, Liverpool or Man City.
Sunderland are – without question as shown by their league position – by far the worst team in the Premier League and I really can’t think in terms of any other result than a convincing Irons win.
There will come a time when Sunderland get a result and go on a little run but that won’t be tomorrow – we will be too good for them but a fast start is really essential.
Jermain Defoe still has something about him and can be a threat, maybe, but after that where do they go in the face of such as Payet, Sakho, Lanzini and Moses for example.
Everything points to a win for our lads and I don’t expect there to be a hint of complacency. Slav is proving hmself far too professional for that stuff.
So for me a good 2-0 win – possibly even more with the goalscorers being Sakho and Tomkins from a set piece.
Love the positive vibes Leroy !!!
I will be happy with 1-0 win ,
We can’t let them get at us and build,
Hope Bilic plays Antonio, this is the type of match to set him lose,
He’s a strong lad and I think the cats will be physical soi think it would be a good option to play him.
We on paper should win but as you say , they have to get a result from someone and if we run true to form it shouldn’t be against us ?
But!!!!!!!!
Were west ham!!!
COYI !!!!S 4 on the trot , same as 86 boys did away from home !!!!! Not since.
We should win this one comfortably,but i just know this is the type of place we go & balls it up,lol.I have to keep positve along with Leroy though so i will go for a 2-1 win to The Mighty Irons!! 😉
This will be a different test to the away games so far, we cant afford to be less than 100% just because they are bottom of the league.. its the British disease of all sports to relax when your doing well and get bitten on the bum. But this Hammers side appear to be different to previous teams.
If we play close to our best we win, its as easy as that
I know what you mean about ballsing it up Rads,is one of those typical games.Think it will be a draw personally.
If we can go 2 up by half time the ground will empty after the fans turn on the club,
They will give it a real go first 15 mins but that is when they will leave the back exposed and if we take our chances Good night Dick,
Reid not playing will give Jenks another chance I hope he repays us this week,
