West Ham (H) Carabao Cup 26/08: Build Up & Match Thread

[Kenny]

I'm hoping Johnstone isn't playing as I still haven't given up hope that we shift him before the window is over.

All the clubs linked with him appear to have signed keepers.

If he goes late, we will go until January with Bentley as the back up.

 

[Jinky]

Not far off what we predicted. Looks like Rodrigo gets a start at RWB.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Tut. 8/11.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

If he's not injured then disappointing that Mané isn't making a 9 man bench after all the "ready for the first team squad" stuff, especially behind Chirewa who has no chance of making it as a Premier League player.

Encouraging to see Yerson and Rodrigo start, and definitely want to see more of Arias and Lopez. Hope Tchatchoua gets a half.

Double Bueno never good, though

Walkers-Peters starts for west ham

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

Didn’t realise this was on Sky. I guess I’ll have to put myself through the pain of watching.

 

[Kenny]

Hwang captain

Vitor is enjoying annoying this place

 

[Jinky]

They’ve gone stronger than us. Bowen goal guaranteed.

 

[Bigbadwulf07]

Poor Sasa, what does he have to do to get a start?

 

[SSB]

From his Instagram it looks like Hwang’s grandfather recently passed away. Surprised he’s not on compassionate leave.

 

[Dennisons Wrong Foot]

They’ve gone stronger than us. Bowen goal guaranteed.

Seems Potter really wants the win. Would be so good for us to beat them. Even penalties after a shit 0-0 would do.

 

[Lupo]

Potter has had an even worse start than we have and will be under far more pressure than Vitor from the fans and owners so will be desperate to win. We should be too though...

Realistically this the trophy we have the best chance of winning yet I’m really not bothered. Thanks Jeff!

Christ, this music is awful. Who were the idiots who requested this?

 

[SSB]

Hwang “The Wolves fans absolutely love him” according to the cockney on comms.

Not hard to put out an email poll to all season ticket holders who will have to pay to listen to it.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Hwang captain

Da fuq!

The fan base apparently, dunno if it’s the same fan base that have being saying it’s a shit song on social media, or a different fan base
