The most telling thing for me is even though we have some key players missing I'm seeing more hope an enthusiasm from fans with Potter than I have ever seen with Loppi that says it all really
Lop was a disaster all down to one man Sullivan. He us an idiot if an owner he has cost the club 10s of millions as it's wiped off our best players. Fans didn't want him, players didn't want him. SULLIVAN is a Pratt
If potter can come up with a team that can win this game from what we have left then he's a genius. Would love 3 points in his first home game and will really help lift the mood
I'd have paqueta up front in this one... He does very well in the duel when he's not rolling about and won't cost us defensively when he is rolling about
You have a point there , the more higher up the pitch he roams about , the better outcome we can expect from such a tight match since he somehow becomes more responsible and stimulated .Kudus need his presence and support in the attacking front now more than ever ..
Orford or casey should come in alongside Scarles..Why is everyone ignoring Andy irving for crying out loud , he has such pace to burn for his gangly figure , and has knack for curling one in from outside the box if need arises , and much more daring than anyone we got in the midfield area whilst also being calm ..Casey's dad talks about the youngster being highly optimistic of playing a central midfield position at some point following the likes of declan ..Scarles is more comfortable on the left as a wing back , no?
This will test the metal of the team and our new manager. If Potter manages to get any type of result, it will be a triumph given the injury situation. What's for sure is that, I'm excited again to watch West Ham play.
Thank you guys for another good show.Hopefully we can continue on from our last positive outing.And this time get a win,even with our injury count.COYI⚒️
I'd play a 3-4-3 fabianski cresswell kilman and mav at centre back scarles and obi wan at wing backs alvarez and soucek at centre mid with two 10s of paquetta and soler and kudus up top
@markthornemarmaduke Fair, but it's also fair to say it's more likely to actually play like a 3-4-3 with Potter, whereas I'd expect it to look like a 5-2-3 under Moyes 🤷
My favourite video of the week, I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s game and it’s made me realise how depressed I was with Lopetegui. I’d play Casey and Scarles. Soucek loves an evening game, I’d play Guilherme and Kudus up front too. It’s time for change and these young players can step up. I feel good about this game,I feel that anything can happen and we will have a Potter bounce.
I believe that uppity feeling is very mutual among west ham supporters at this point.We got nothing to lose at this stage against a very formidable side
Same here , mate ..Oddly enough , i don't feel any fear going into the game about us getting decimated with a typical fulham rout ...I reckon that we could even clinch three points in a manner remindful of that newcastle away game .Soucek to score , ofcourse
Love this content constructive criticism I would prefer it if you done the show after the managers press conference be really interesting to see how you would set up the team after the injury updates
What a difference a week makes. Before we all knew what j lo would pick and line up……..already we are trying to work out what potter will do,his formation,personnel etc and with injuries I think it’s absolutely great,he has a plan a,b,c ,d etc it gives hope and hopefully have a go and some decent football which we and the players have been starved of
Good one ..Scarles can't be dropped at this point ..He was well inducted into this exhausted team across the last few games , and we need some youngsters to step up like him now more than ever
Agree this is a great chance to play some youngsters, slightly leaning towards Geo's team. I think even if we lose seeing some young academy boys will bring some excitement.
We need to get behind the team for the whole match We are truly up against it We are ravaged with injuries Excited by Potter but make no mistake we will be up against it
You guys are forgetting that paq has played quite well as cf under moyes . At times he has decent hold up play. I would have paq and kudus up front . Emerson lwb if he’s available
Agree with you Geo re Mav/Casey, but I wonder if that is something a new manager can do to a senior player on his first home game if team harmony is the goal? Tough call. That said, I like your lineups. This is the opportunity many players have been waiting for. Young, eager, motivated, new tactics and formation. It could go pear shaped, but we need to experiment: we need a plan B. No Bowen, Antonio, Ings, Coufal...Fulkrug even. It free's Potter up to try something without creating team disharmony. Whufc 1-1 Fulham. Good draw for us give our circumstances.
Simple. Lack of wingers means we have to play narrow. Push Soucek up top with Ings. Let him push right on when we’re in possession and bomb it forward from the back - with Kudus and Paq playing through the middle looking for the knock downs. He can drop back when we’re out of possession to overload in the middle. 4-4-2
Great preview guys. Just a word on Fulhams owners, they've done well but their ticket prices are disgraceful, mate supports them and can never afford to go! Fabianski AWB, Mavrapanos, Casey, Killman, Scarles Alvarez, Soler Guillerhme, Kudus, Paqueta 🤔
If possible it might be time to recall Marshall & Kodua. Marshall has been getting more game time than Kodua but both have been praised by their current managers.
i reckon that he is gonna become a mainstay under potter soon .He is a versatile latin import and the most pacey one we got in our ranks .Counting on him to forge a very unique attacking trio act alongside fellow brazilians on that left side when given the chance
@markthornemarmaduke that's what I thought. He might be better playing more in the middle under Potter. I might be wrong but he may prefer a right footer on the right like Summerville
Agree about Anderson. He’s very good and he’s still underrated. One thing that worries me about playing Mo in the 9 is that Anderson is big, strong and he’s a world class wind up merchant. Mo has shown that he doesn’t do well against that kind of player.
I’d like us to take something from this game. I hate losing at home and I hope Potter’s whu team play well! I’d be more confident if Todibo, Summerville and Fulkrug were available.
With Potter now in charge, I feel almost as though we have an extra player as I think the players will want to get behind him and play their best for him (and us), quite a contract to how I felt about Loopy, I felt he was a hindrance. COYI ⚒
Guilherme on a wing. Kudus upfront. Soler, Soucek, Álvarez & Paqueta in the middle. The usual suspects at the back. Hopefully enough to get something out of the game
I was thinking could Emerson play left wing Scarles at left back I think back to Michael Hughes or Skippy Lazaridis it would be great to have a genuine left footed left winger I’m of the opinion he will help us flow better even Summerville isn’t left footed is he.
Has Emerson been injured? Suspended? Benched? Haven’t been able to find out what’s been going on with him. Not sure we get to use Summerville. Potter said in his presser that he’s more on the side of negative than positive for being available. Can we play Orford?
Hi, Geo and Gonzo. I REALLY FEEL Potter will make us a team difficult to beat, NOT just tomorrow but OVERALL. I'm NOT ruling out a European place this season. In faith I trust POTTER😂
Win and we go above spurs and Man Utd. Incentive enough I would suggest, yet after hearing this pre-view all my Potter-inspired enthusiasm has gone! thank you lads.Yet looking at the table Fulham, despite having a good season have won ONE more time than a terrible West Ham this season?! strange this fear of Fulham, though I get the injuries etc. What is it about our club that we can't even enjoy a new manager bounce? Loppy-useless lost his first game at home to villa and now Potter, if you both are right, is set to lose his first home game!! great.
perhaps the ref can give us a make believe penalty , just like the Aston Villa corner from which they scored. No chance the ref protecting Fab either. Glaring errors turned the game, and cost WH dearly, yet ref suffers no come back, as usual. Given our player injury list, it is unreasonable to have expectations of Potter, and our team, against a team playing well, such as Fulham. For future games, we need Steiden to perform some magic, and talk in some quality transfers, and yet harder still, persuade Sully.
Everytime - without fail - that I see Mavrepanos on the start sheet I think we are going to lose. I think he's a lovely guy but defs *not* Premier League standard.
Big game.. an a big performance is all I want to see.... COYI ⚒️ 2.1 west ham or a draw.. Fab Bassaka, Mavo or alvarez, Casey, Kilman, Creswell Soler, soucek, paqueta, guilherme Kudus ⚒️⚒️ Subs.... Ings, coufal, Irving, foderingham, summerville if fit and G Rodriguez.
Saying I’ll put paqueta in if he stops rolling around that’s like saying I’ll put Ings in if he scores an hatrick 😂😂😂 Antonio got more chance of scoring a goal tomorrow night than paqueta not playing dead
Lop was a disaster all down to one man Sullivan. He is an idiot of an owner he has cost the club 10s of millions as it's been wiped off our best players valuations. Fans didn't want him, players didn't want him. SULLIVAN is a Pratt
Do wonder if Guilherme can play as the forward, if so you can switch him and Kudus if needed... I was tempted to put Soler in for Alvarez bcos I think Alvarez is going to be sold, I think we are going to have to have Soucek sacrifice guide forward play, in open play, he can still be effective from set plays, esp corners... Bit like on Rice's last season...
@breakfastclubwakeywakey1193 ha ha - I had them in the team in my mind beforehand lol - it's this 3-4-2-1 formation, as soon as I hear it I start dancing after 1 lol 😂 nice one for letting me know so could edit it lol, I only looked a prat for 12 hours 😂
@breakfastclubwakeywakey1193 think we're gonna sell Alvarez to fund a striker, Soucek will have to adopt the DM role with Soler alongside as a good passing outlet for him... Also I don't see him dropping Soucek at the moment as he'll be our captain - unless Cress starts but no one wants to see that lol
Soucek up fron t for me. I would like to see this line up against Fulham. Fabianski.Wan bassaka.Mavro,Kilman.Summerville,Alvarez,Soler,Scarles.Paqueta,Kudus,Soucek. yes Soucek up front,he is quite similar to Fulkrug in his attributes. this allows a better ball player to come in,Soler in the deeper midfield place,Alvarez gets the ball and passes it to Soler to Paqueta then feeding Summerville or Kudus. Soucek takes away the Fulham central defenders. Easy...

The most telling thing for me is even though we have some key players missing I'm seeing more hope an enthusiasm from fans with Potter than I have ever seen with Loppi that says it all really
Agree mate!
Lop was a disaster all down to one man Sullivan. He us an idiot if an owner he has cost the club 10s of millions as it's wiped off our best players. Fans didn't want him, players didn't want him. SULLIVAN is a Pratt
Based on one match? We need hope and enthusiasm from the players. Time will tell whether Potter will generate that consistently.
Videos thick and fast! Love it! great show, always entertaining and great insight! Thanks Lads COYI!!
If potter can come up with a team that can win this game from what we have left then he's a genius. Would love 3 points in his first home game and will really help lift the mood
Only cloud is Ings.
I'd have paqueta up front in this one... He does very well in the duel when he's not rolling about and won't cost us defensively when he is rolling about
You have a point there , the more higher up the pitch he roams about , the better outcome we can expect from such a tight match since he somehow becomes more responsible and stimulated .Kudus need his presence and support in the attacking front now more than ever ..
i dont think he has the physicality to play up top, hed just get brushed off the ball by even the smallest of PL CBs.
What about?...
Fab
WBS Mav Kilman
Summerville Alvarez Orford Scarles
Soler Paqueta
Kudus
👍🏻 yes
Orford or casey should come in alongside Scarles..Why is everyone ignoring Andy irving for crying out loud , he has such pace to burn for his gangly figure , and has knack for curling one in from outside the box if need arises , and much more daring than anyone we got in the midfield area whilst also being calm ..Casey's dad talks about the youngster being highly optimistic of playing a central midfield position at some point following the likes of declan ..Scarles is more comfortable on the left as a wing back , no?
I feel like that middle of the pitch would get dominated. Especially with Mav down the middle.
I know it's not his position - but Gulliame looks like a center forward - I'd play him up front
This will test the metal of the team and our new manager. If Potter manages to get any type of result, it will be a triumph given the injury situation. What's for sure is that, I'm excited again to watch West Ham play.
Indeed , fingers crossed , albeit oddly very optimistic since we got a certain wizard running the scenes from behind
Thank you guys for another good show.Hopefully we can continue on from our last positive outing.And this time get a win,even with our injury count.COYI⚒️
Agreed on Anderson always rated him. When we went for Kilman i hoped we would go in for him 🤷🏻♂️⚒️
love your chat - always balanced. Hoping there is no manager bounce tonight!
I'd play a 3-4-3 fabianski cresswell kilman and mav at centre back scarles and obi wan at wing backs alvarez and soucek at centre mid with two 10s of paquetta and soler and kudus up top
If Moyes put that team out everyone would absolutely destroy him for being too negative at home! 😅
@markthornemarmaduke Fair, but it's also fair to say it's more likely to actually play like a 3-4-3 with Potter, whereas I'd expect it to look like a 5-2-3 under Moyes 🤷
Thatz a good team to hold out well and even get a decent result
My favourite video of the week, I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s game and it’s made me realise how depressed I was with Lopetegui. I’d play Casey and Scarles. Soucek loves an evening game, I’d play Guilherme and Kudus up front too. It’s time for change and these young players can step up. I feel good about this game,I feel that anything can happen and we will have a Potter bounce.
Love that. Under the lights too, bring it on!
I believe that uppity feeling is very mutual among west ham supporters at this point.We got nothing to lose at this stage against a very formidable side
Part of me is excited for this game BECAUSE our squad has been decimated, im intrigued to see what Potter does.
Same here , mate ..Oddly enough , i don't feel any fear going into the game about us getting decimated with a typical fulham rout ...I reckon that we could even clinch three points in a manner remindful of that newcastle away game .Soucek to score , ofcourse
Love this content constructive criticism I would prefer it if you done the show after the managers press conference be really interesting to see how you would set up the team after the injury updates
Tbf the team news I said ended up being pretty much spot on, the only possible absentee is Summerville but I’ve a feeling he will be ok
@ just worried if he does not make tomorrow the right wingback becomes a very defensive pick after him
It’s bloody ridiculous We’re paying Ings £120,000 a week & his not up to standard It’s a disgrace who ever bought him
I think he will be in the lineup and could repeat with another point- clinching late goal against fulham
Really feel like we should be recalling Earthy now. He'd get a lot of chances with the absences we currently have in the team.
True .Potts too
I’m looking forward to the game in as much, that with the players we have available and how they react under Potter.
What a difference a week makes. Before we all knew what j lo would pick and line up……..already we are trying to work out what potter will do,his formation,personnel etc and with injuries I think it’s absolutely great,he has a plan a,b,c ,d etc it gives hope and hopefully have a go and some decent football which we and the players have been starved of
I'm really worried he will start ings up front even tho he spoke of Kudus potentially starting up top 🤔
Iwobi and Traore out wide are great and Bassey is tough at the back
Based on Potter’s prematch
Fab,Dinos,Kilman,Emerson,scarles,AWB,Alvarez,soucek,soler,paqueta,kudus is my prediction for the team
Good one ..Scarles can't be dropped at this point ..He was well inducted into this exhausted team across the last few games , and we need some youngsters to step up like him now more than ever
Agree this is a great chance to play some youngsters, slightly leaning towards Geo's team. I think even if we lose seeing some young academy boys will bring some excitement.

For like 10 minutes

Fabianski

Alvarez, Soler
Guillerhme, Kudus, Paqueta
🤔
If possible it might be time to recall Marshall & Kodua. Marshall has been getting more game time than Kodua but both have been praised by their current managers.
Yes, get marshall back a backup to a new signing with the initials J.D
With the injuries I’d go
Fab
Awb. Kilman. Emerson
Lui. Shou. Alv. Olli
Sol. PAC
Kud
I’d like to see Guilherme given a rare start
He needs 90 mins sane as Scarles had to show what he can do
i reckon that he is gonna become a mainstay under potter soon .He is a versatile latin import and the most pacey one we got in our ranks .Counting on him to forge a very unique attacking trio act alongside fellow brazilians on that left side when given the chance
Junior robinson is a real flying machine, some young player
Is Guillerme left or right foot? Just wondering because Potter seemed to favour wingers on their natural side, i.e.,Summerville on the right.
He's lefty
@markthornemarmaduke that's what I thought. He might be better playing more in the middle under Potter. I might be wrong but he may prefer a right footer on the right like Summerville
Love Geo’s facials when Gonzo selects a curve ball!
Agree about Anderson. He’s very good and he’s still underrated. One thing that worries me about playing Mo in the 9 is that Anderson is big, strong and he’s a world class wind up merchant. Mo has shown that he doesn’t do well against that kind of player.

Guilherme on a wing. Kudus upfront. Soler, Soucek, Álvarez & Paqueta in the middle. The usual suspects at the back. Hopefully enough to get something out of the game
Without sounding to esoteric I think Potter the wizard has lifted the black cloud
Any videos on who you want too stay and go ? Love it if you could 👍🏼
I was thinking could Emerson play left wing Scarles at left back I think back to Michael Hughes or Skippy Lazaridis it would be great to have a genuine left footed left winger I’m of the opinion he will help us flow better even Summerville isn’t left footed is he.

Not sure we get to use Summerville. Potter said in his presser that he’s more on the side of negative than positive for being available. Can we play Orford?
Similar to Villa game i think, we wont be able to hold on but potentiallyvwe will play well
I think Potter said Mavropanos is available Geo,also cant see Summerville being ready its going to be very tough
We recorded this pre press conference mate but he did (I did say we could use them, luckily my ‘team news’ ended up being accurate)
@@HammersChat ah cool,I might wait for the team news before deciding whether to go,in London for work so no excuse not to really 😂
@ my PREDICTED team will be as follows
Fabianski
AWB
Mavropanos
Kilman
Scarles
Alvarez
Soucek
Summerville
Soler
Paqueta
Kudus
@HammersChat I better pack my gloves and hat,I am off to the game 😂
Kudus
Paq Guilherme
Summerville Alvarez Soucek Coufal
Kilman Casey AWB
Fab
Can't see where our next win will come with all our strikers out injured and relying on Ings plus our defence is leaking goals atm ⚒⚽
Can you imagine how happy Gonzo would be if West Ham ever signed Traore? I think he loves him more than his children… 😉
Hi, Geo and Gonzo. I REALLY FEEL Potter will make us a team difficult to beat, NOT just tomorrow but OVERALL. I'm NOT ruling out a European place this season. In faith I trust POTTER😂
Robinson is class I’d love to see him at West Ham.
Win and we go above spurs and Man Utd. Incentive enough I would suggest, yet after hearing this pre-view all my Potter-inspired enthusiasm has gone! thank you lads.Yet looking at the table Fulham, despite having a good season have won ONE more time than a terrible West Ham this season?! strange this fear of Fulham, though I get the injuries etc. What is it about our club that we can't even enjoy a new manager bounce?

Is Mav out with concussion protocol..? Or is he unavailable with injury..?
28:18 Don Gonzo 😂😂
Lads, can't recall if ive commented on this vid yet but because of injuries, I fear the next 3 - 4 games.
I trust harry to weave his magic home win
Totally with Geo on his Big Mav assessment. Bench him.
I've got long term arrousement but it normally ends up in short term fruitiness 😂
I’d play the same team as geo but I’d have kudus in the same position and stick Guilherme up front
As Marshall is out on loan why not promote Joshua Ajala to the senior squad.
Antonee Robinson is going to be a problem for our lads
If we scramble a draw out of this one I be very happy given the circumstances
Everytime - without fail - that I see Mavrepanos on the start sheet I think we are going to lose. I think he's a lovely guy but defs *not* Premier League standard.
Big game.. an a big performance is all I want to see.... COYI ⚒️ 2.1 west ham or a draw..
Fab
Bassaka, Mavo or alvarez, Casey, Kilman, Creswell
Soler, soucek, paqueta,
guilherme
Kudus ⚒️⚒️
Subs.... Ings, coufal, Irving, foderingham, summerville if fit and G Rodriguez.
Silva to the spuds
Thought Summerville was out so luis would be a direct replacement
To be fair Antonio doesn’t get goals either. He’s scored what 1 all season with some great chances
Could this be the season we do see the youth step up because they have to? A great excuse to test some of the youth that we are all saying can do it
We got Antonio from Forest West Ham career ended by a tree, conspiracy theory brewing. Tin foil hat season at West Ham
I think a 2-1 win. 🙏🙏
I don’t think Mavroparnos being out is bad luck 😂
It will be risky to play Summerville if he aunt 109%
Saying I’ll put paqueta in if he stops rolling around that’s like saying I’ll put Ings in if he scores an hatrick 😂😂😂 Antonio got more chance of scoring a goal tomorrow night than paqueta not playing dead
COYI⚒️⚒️⚒️
Ings
Summerville / Soucek / Kudus
Paq / Soler
Emerson / Kilman / ? / Bisaka
Fabi
I like that formation. Let's give it a try COYI
Lop was a disaster all down to one man Sullivan. He is an idiot of an owner he has cost the club 10s of millions as it's been wiped off our best players valuations. Fans didn't want him, players didn't want him. SULLIVAN is a Pratt
Took him 5 minutes to bring up Brentford. So weird
#GonzoOut
I'd go the following:
- Areola -
- AWB - Casey - Kilman -
- Summerville - Soler - Soucek - Scarles -
-Guilherme - Paqueta -
- Kudus -
Do wonder if Guilherme can play as the forward, if so you can switch him and Kudus if needed... I was tempted to put Soler in for Alvarez bcos I think Alvarez is going to be sold, I think we are going to have to have Soucek sacrifice guide forward play, in open play, he can still be effective from set plays, esp corners... Bit like on Rice's last season...
Your 2 short 😂
@breakfastclubwakeywakey1193 ha ha - I had them in the team in my mind beforehand lol - it's this 3-4-2-1 formation, as soon as I hear it I start dancing after 1 lol 😂 nice one for letting me know so could edit it lol, I only looked a prat for 12 hours 😂
@jaywatsonWHU1895 I'd defo put Alverez in for Soucek I think Potter will get him firing again
@breakfastclubwakeywakey1193 think we're gonna sell Alvarez to fund a striker, Soucek will have to adopt the DM role with Soler alongside as a good passing outlet for him... Also I don't see him dropping Soucek at the moment as he'll be our captain - unless Cress starts but no one wants to see that lol
Soucek up fron t for me. I would like to see this line up against Fulham. Fabianski.Wan bassaka.Mavro,Kilman.Summerville,Alvarez,Soler,Scarles.Paqueta,Kudus,Soucek. yes Soucek up front,he is quite similar to Fulkrug in his attributes. this allows a better ball player to come in,Soler in the deeper midfield place,Alvarez gets the ball and passes it to Soler to Paqueta then feeding Summerville or Kudus. Soucek takes away the Fulham central defenders. Easy...
How are ya lads COYI from new zealand
