My guess is that Kortney’s in to combat Antonio as Tyrone doesn’t like a physical battle

Hope Archer gets some game time.

Yeah hes really come to the forefront.
Wishful thinking would be we are 2-0 up and Archer replaces Ollie and smashes another 2 in!

Not a strong Bench but some exciting youngsters and Davis.

For all the money we've spent that midfield three is shit.

A lot of youngsters today. Archer, Ramsey, Ramsey, Chukwuemeka, Davis

Surely Davis is in his thirties by now?

Runs like a man in his 50s.

He's a graduate then...

Good point, happy enough with the team as things needed shaking up a bit.

Few good players missing; Traore, Ings, Luiz and Sanson.

Good to see some changes and four at the back.

Wonder if it’s a 4-4-2 diamond? That’s what NBCSN are reporting.

I can’t watch Sky Sports. 🤮

We need better midfielders - West Ham’s two are miles ahead of our three.

433 it looks like...that's the way Moyes think it is anyway! Mings hasn't played well lately but with the switch to a back 4 I would have kept him in

West Ham will come to throttle our midfield.  I fear the worst, hope for the best.  Dropping the captain is a massive call, I hope Dean knows what he's doing.
