Slav’s team for Swansea – fans’ astonished reaction!
Slaven Bilic dropped a massive bombshell by going without a natural striker for the crucial game against Swansea.
Here’s how ClaretandHugh’s Facebook group members responded.
O We’re down, Bilic gone,
O So much want to get behind the team today, then I see the team sheet…why aren’t we going to upfront and trying really do for it
O Trying to stay positive BUT!!?!
O Clearly Carroll and Sakho not 100% and ready to start….now comes the whole ‘was Ayew bought as a striker’ argument again
O Ayew was a panic buy that has turned into a massive flop
O Chance for Snodgrass and Ayew to prove themselves. make or break time as Irons?
O Game we have to win and we start with no striker ?
O Massive game, my heart will always say a Hammers win but my head tells me we will be lucky to draw, hope I’m wrong. Back 5 looks so weak!
O This will be interesting to say the least. If neither Sak nor AC are fit enough for 90 mins I feel for Slav. I suppose he could given then a half each but i guess he’s hoping we will be OK in the 1st half and bring both on if we need them s half?
O I’m actually in utter disbelief at that line up. It’s obvious AC and Sak aren’t fit. But I’d rather have Antonio up front and play Ayew wide. At least we know Antonio can score when he’s up there
