Claret and Hugh readers have been voting for their West Ham starting XI against Bournemouth. With 172 votes counted so far, we can now reveal the peoples vote for the Hammers line up for this afternoon.
Lukasz Fabianski got the maximum 172 votes so was a shoo-in between the sticks. Issa Diop 170 votes with Angelo Ogbonna on 160 and Fabian Balbuena on just 14 votes.
At left-back Aaron Cresswell received 146 votes with Arthur Masuaku dropping down to just 28 votes.
Declan Rice received the maximum 172 votes with skipper Mark Noble receiving 171 votes to start, Jack Wilshere received just 27 votes to start while Carloz Sanchez received zero votes!
In midfield, Felipe Anderson scored 171 votes Manuel Lanzini 56 votes while Andriy Yarmolenko received 161 voted and Pablo Fornals 83 voyes while Robert Snodgrass received 5 votes.
Seb Haller received a convincing 169 votes upfront while Albian Ajeti received just 8 votes.
Using Manuel Pellegrini’s favored 4-2-3-1 formation it makes the peoples vote starting XI as follows:
Fabianski, Cresswell, Diop, Ogbonna, Fredericks, Rice, Noble, Anderson, Fornals, Yarmolenko, Haller
Why haven’t we received the fans’ votes for the players in the Oxford United match yet, Hugh ? Anything embarrassing to hide ?
Wth no streams and only around 30 or 40 ratings hardly seemed worth it. I’ll ask Josh. He sorts it or Sean
Sorry small admin error, we cleared down ratings on Thursday ready for the Saturday game without compiling them
The fans have it, exactly the team that has been selected, was reviewing our fixtures for the rest of the season and it occurred to me that there really are no easy games in the FAPL are there ? Perhaps Newcastle? Other than that all the teams looked competitive on paper.
