I'd have played Malen instead of Bailey but happy otherwise.

Someone needs to put a reducer on that cheating bastard Paqueta early doors.

I know we complain about injuries, but I make that four fullbacks and no strikers for West Ham.

Is Emery playing with fire a little not giving Duran some starts. I thought maybe Monaco, or at worst today and he’s gone with Watkins every time. Duran was playing really well prior to his suspension.

There was talk Bowen might be risked for this one but clearly not and Ings doesn't count as a striker ;)

Not sure if Emery is trying to make some point with Duran, but surely he needs to start at some point if only to keep his head in the game? We can debate who is the better striker, but throw the man a bone.
