[Albion] West Ham United vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

Let's just pray we don't come over all defensive from the off in the second half...

We may not get any choice. The other team has a say as well.

Alzate. East End boy.
Lallana is a worry. Such a dream, when he is fit.

Perhaps a minor injury? Lallana’s so good, let’s save him for coming games.

I didn't think he had that good a half so best not to risk him.

Moyes must react and make a double substitution, Benrahma and Lanzini to double up on March and Burn I reckon , going to be a massive half of football come on lads get this done .

 

[WhingForPresident]

Go in hard on Lanzini and show Yarmolenko onto his right and we'll be fine.

Llalana is made of bloody paper. I swear half of it’s in his head.

Stephens was rarely injured.

Yeah, you’re probably right.

He’s probably fine but not playing because of an imaginary injury in his head.

Positive support.

There's a lot of it about.

 

[Ethelwulf]

Please do not sit back

Out of curiosity, anyone know how many times we’ve surrendered leads this season?

Unfair. He's at least half Weetabix.

 

[SeagullDubai]

West Ham have upped the tempo. Looking far more dangerous

Right then, West Ham already pushing on, let’s hit them on the break.

 

[Durlston]

Yarmalenko and lanzini on- damm and blast

But if they're so good, why are they on West Ham's subs bench and not somewhere like Chelsea?

 

[Normandy seagull]

We’ve started the 2nd half badly

Or being carefully managed

 

[dstanman]

West Ham look better already

I guess he doesn't want to push his body at all because he knows that one of the times he does he will get injured.
I'd agree, but it isn't the same as a younger player with no record of injury doing it. He just really doesn't want to risk 6 months out.
It's not going to be his kind of half today though so we shouldn't miss him too much.
