2018-19 Pre-season: training camps and matches etc (West Ham)

MunichHammer

The way Adrian goes about pens I'd make him our cup goalie just so we can park the bus and beat the lot on pens.

Bazshuayi

Is it here yet? ;puzzled

Felipe Anderson and Aaron Cresswell are set to feature after being passed fit to play. Chicharito is also in full training and could feature for the first time in pre-season.

Lukasz Fabianski is set to be given a second start in goal, having made his debut at Ipswich Town on Saturday.

Andriy Yarmolenko will again be rested as a precaution but should be fit for the start of the Premier League season a week on Sunday at Liverpool.

Just a reminder that this evening's game kicks off at 5.30pm, by the time I found the last game it was nearly over.

Brother_Sledge

Thanks Buffy - do we know if there will be a stream yet ?

MrsGrey

Club on its preview says it will be streamed on their official FB page for UK and NI residents. For the rest of us, we'll have to hunt down a stream - but the likelihood is that as it is being broadcast, there will be one somewhere.

Brother_Sledge

Thank you , good luck with your hunt for a stream

MrsGrey

Hopefully this game I'll at least be hunting at the right time ;doh

Barney

sadly I will miss the match tonight but I wondered if anyone knows if it is possible to record it or see a full playback.

Expat_Hammer

Most of the pre season games have been available later, and some in full

Possibly on West Ham's Facebook page. As Expat says, other games have been made available to watch again.

Barney

thanks Ex Pat and Mrs Grey. Fingers crossed I can find it later.

Finish work > rush home > watch pre-season game > eat at half time > full time > work out.

ooo thats a first choice 11...

Things are getting serious....

grey_til_I_dye

Interesting to see how Chicarito fits in in that line-up.

Bazshuayi

I'm going to guess Chicharito up front with Arnie behind him flanked by Anderson and Antonio. As in 4-2-3-. Perhaps a little rotation between the two of them periodically? Or some rotisserie as I fancy some chicken ;hmm

So, we're gonna play a 4-2-3-, we're only playing with 10 then ;wink

Guessing you missed a "1" at the end ;lol

thornburyiron

According to the OS he's going 4-4-2

Yeoldhammer

Moving the ball nicely but still looking defensively suspect we really do need that DM / CDM

Well it's pre-season. I didnt know we had to play 11 all the time ;puzzled

Yeoldhammer

Anderson with his first bit of skill skinning both midfielder and fullback need more of that from him.

buffybegood

I've got a bit of split screen going on, cricket too close to leave alone just at the moment, India 63-4 chasing 194.

buffybegood

Antonio and Fredericks seem to be linking quite well so far.

grey_til_I_dye

Clear that players have been drilled to take one touch and move the ball where possible. Good to see.

Yeoldhammer

Antonio and Fredericks and Masuaku and Anderson in the previous game were forming nice understandings.

Hernandez hasn't really being in the game.

Yeoldhammer

West Ham scored with a weird goal not sure what happened ? Hernandez scored ? defender own goal / Keeper own goal ?
