Rice would be able to play the Fernandinho role, he'll most likely be doing so for real i the next 18 months when City come calling with 50M ;weep and ;run
You know everyone's watching him with envious eyes... City are prime candidates. So that's both Greys that have given me a whack in recent days because of Decerz ;lol
I think when all are fit it’ll be Lanzini vs Nasri for the AM spot in a 4-2-3-1, rather than both. Nasri gives us a great option, but if Manu comes back anything like the player he was before then he is the future, imo.
From Sky this morning. Manuel Pellegrini has good news for West Ham fans, revealing Manuel Lanzini has returned to training following his long-term knee injury. Excellent news!
Still early days, as he's not doing the actual training. "We had good news that Lanzini started working with the squad. He did the warm-up. Fredericks is also doing complete work with the squad."
Claret & Hugh reporting that Arnie has suffered heavy bruising & has an outside chance of being fit for Liverpool. Ex reporting this news too. States there is no break and he should be back within 2 weeks.
"Fabianski will be OK. He didn't work today 100 per cent but I think he will be able to work normally tomorrow. Aaron Cresswell is getting better, but Samir Nasri needs one week more."
Arni - it's bruising, but don't know yet if he'll be OK for Liverpool.
According to some reports Wilshere’s season could be over
Well, as far as I can see, the sole source of this is the Daily Mail, who say they 'understand' his season is over, but no other info on why they understand this. Further down the page they also say (again, unsupported) that Lanzini won't play again this season.

Fabianski
Zabaleta - Diop - Balbuena - Cresswell
Rice - Lanzini
Yarmolenko - Nasri - Anderson
Hernandez
Adrian, Ogbonna, Fredericks, Noble, Wilshere, Antonio, Carroll
With Reid, Masuaku, Obiang, Sanchez, Snodgrass, Diangana, Perez not even in the 18! Plus I have left Arnie out for now.
Not saying that 11 will be our best side as it is very attacking, but some good options there.
Mawson injured himself while changing his boots...
Just as well we didn't get him.
Played 45 mins yesterday in a behind-closed-doors friendly.
But good news, nevertheless!
"We don't have any
creativemidfielders, defenders, strikers in this moment so it's difficult playing so many games with the same players."Fixed it for ya' Manuel ;biggrin
"Fabianski will be OK. He didn't work today 100 per cent but I think he will be able to work normally tomorrow. Aaron Cresswell is getting better, but Samir Nasri needs one week more."

Sad to see but you can only come back from disappointments like this so many times

So, are we believing that, too?
