Moyes rings out the changes at Southampton

David Moyes has surprised  West Ham supporters again by making five changes for tonight’s Premier League clash against Southampton.

In comes Craig Dawson for his debut along with Ryan Fredericks, Manuel Lanzini, Andriy Yarmolenko and Pablo Fornals.

Out goes Ben Johnson, Vladimir Coufal, Mark Noble, Jarrod Bowen and Fabian Benrahma.

Michail Antonio makes a welcome return to the bench tonight despite the manager claiming he was not ready yesterday, Mikey is joined by Darren Randolph, Issa Diop, Ben Johnson, Vladimir Coufal, Mark Noble, Robert Snodgrass Jarrod Bowen and Said Benrahma

West Ham starting XI is Fabianski, Fredericks, Dawson, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Rice (s), Soucek, Lanzini, Fornals, Yarmolenko and Haller

The Gaffer appears to have reverted to a 4-3-2-1 formation to face the Saints.

West Ham is in tenth position while Southampton are in ninth place in the Premier League table.

A win for West Ham would leave them in tenth place on goal difference unless they can win by more than three goals which would allow them to leap frong the Saints into ninth place.

    I was impressed with Craig Dawson too. Reminded me of James Collins, no nonsense, cleared anything dangerous away with his bonce.

    How is it a surprise Moyes made 5 changes. We played only two days ago. He was always going to use the full squad over these two games.

    I can’t be the only person seeing that haller and fornals are complete dog turd every single game. Fornals is stealing a living. He is the worst player I have ever seen. His pass completion must be zero. I’m fed up of watching every move break down when haller or fornals get the ball. Plain and simple. They are shit. I’m not watching any more
