People’s Choice West Ham Starting XI Fabianksi, Cresswell, Ogbonna, Diop, Coufal, Soucek, Noble, Benrahma, Lingard, Fornals, Bowen
Subs bench: Randolph, Johnson, Fredericks, Lanzini, Balbuena, Masuaku, Yarmolenko, Dawson, Coventry
Some how you put Masuaku in the team with 55 votes !!!
Noble with 75 gets in to.
both ahead of Benrhama with 88 votes.FFS.
Even Dawson has more votes,69, than Masuaku.
Ineptitude of the highest order.
Are you Masuaku’s agent ?
It has to be the highest amount of votes for each position or a sensible formation that David Moyes would be likely to play
But I agree Benrahma could play in place of Masuauku so I will change it
We have to win on Monday night so we have to go on the offense that means no Noble in midfield. Moyes has to be brave here with his decision on Monday night and play Fornals in the middle with Soucek, we need legs in there and Fornals has that. This will allow Masa and Benrahma in the team. Moyes has no choice but to be positive now and he has picked so many negative teams this season in games against the so called bigger teams, if he picks a negative team against Burnley it will be a massive disappointment if we lose.
But Fornals couldn’t tackle his way out of a wet paper bag, no physicality
Have you watched Noble for the last year and a half ? Couple this with no legs. Its a risk but potentially a huge reward.
