With 251 Claret and Hugh readers voting in the people’s choice starting XI the results are now in,
Fabianski is back in goal with a near-maximum 250 votes.
The backline consists of Aaron Cresswell 243 votes, Angelo Ogbonna 247 votes, Fabian Balbuena 163 votes and Vladimir Coufal 236 votes
Ryan Fredericks 11 votes, Issa Diop 88 votes, Ben Johnson 5 votes and Craig Dawson 9 votes all fail to make the grade
Declan Rice gets an impressive 248 votes and looks odds on to captain to Hammers with Tomas Soucek one ahead with 249 votes.
In midfield and attack is Arthur Masuaku 238 votes Pablo Fornals 233 votes, Michail Antonio 246 votes, Jarrod Bowen 244 votes
Mark Noble 6 votes, Manuel Lanzini 3 votes, Robert Snodgrass 7 votes, Yarmolenko 10 votes and Seb Haller 15 votes all fail to make the cut.
West Ham Starting XI Fabianksi, Cresswell, Balbuena, Ogbonna, Coufal, Rice, Soucek, Masuaku, Fornals, Bowen, Antonio
Subs: Randolph, Johnson, Fredericks, Lanzini, Noble, Yarmolenko, Diop
Cant argue with the unchnaged team – I would like to see Haller on the bench – for either Fredericks or Ben Johnson (a bit harsh on Johnson if he were to be left out)
