West Ham updates

Bit early but an interesting analysis. Hope they try 4-2-3-1 again then!

In the Premier League we have played three formations:
Rounds 1-3: 4-2-3-1 (3 Losses)
Rounds 4-6: 3-4-3 (1 Win, 1 Draw, 1 Loss)
Round 7: 4-4-2 (1 Win)
O Only three players have started every game: Hart, Zabaleta and Chicha
O We have started 17 different players across the 7 games as well as Lanzini and Sakho making sub only appearances.
O We have made 16 changes to the PL starting Line, 6 have been forced, 10 unforced.
O Ogbonna is the only player to be dropped twice without a “forced” reason.
The other players presumably dropped on form or other reasons are:
Ayew, Carroll, Fernandes , Fonte, Masuaku, Noble, Obiang and Rice.

Supporters have been active on social media networks for some time, calling for a change at the top, with the former defender as one of the men to be axed.

However, the Croatian appears to be firmly rooted to his position as manager at the club, with the board prepared to wait until the end of the season before they look for a successor.

It is believed David Gold and David Sullivan are only prepared to wait, as there is not a natural and viable option to replace Bilic with at the present moment in time, whilst his backroom staff are also thought to be ready to depart should his tenure with the club end.

Wet Spam.. another London side that think they are better than they are .. They did the double over us last season, so I think it's time for a bit of payback.. Won't be easy though as they can play some decent football at times..

A bogey side for us and will be another test of our credentials.

Lanzini training hard to be fit for the game!

A list being drawn up to replace Bilic said to include Sean and Rafa.

Lanzini back it seems and apart from two players, Bilic will have a fully fit squad to choose from.

The co-chairman revealed a conversation with West Ham fitness supremo Gary Lewin, with only James Collins and Don Quina out of action.

If we play our normal game it's a game we should not lose.. A loss would be pretty grim after our recent displays..Wet Spam are a bit of a bogey side though..Would be nice to take all three points with playing Citeh away next week..

Lost 5 of our last 6 and rumours of Diafra Sakho, Chicharito, Manuel Lanzini, Michail Antonio and Marko Arnautovic all starting should make for an interesting and challenging day, plus Winston Reid versus Wood in the Kiwi battle

Chicharito may not start as he flew back late yesterday. Had a personal problem to solve in Mexico.
