West Ham vs Boro

Should be a good game today with two teams both starting to find some form.

Will be interesting to see how Boro line up away from home after adopting a much more fluid and attacking style of play at home, do they keep a 4-4-2 with Boateng out right and no defensive midfielder in the middle or does Gary O'Neil come in to start ?

Hopefully Arca and Rochemback will start in the centre as they seem to be making a great partnership and personally i would like Gary O'Neil to take part in the match at some point.

Mido should be nearing full match fitness which could be interesting and Aliadiere will hopefully be getting used to his style of play and start being able to pick up on his flick ons etc. Definatly a strike partnership to keep your eyes on.

Wheater will hopefully continue his brilliant form this season but it will be a real test against Bellamy.

Expect Boro to line up unchanged from the destroying of Birmingham 2 weeks back although Skippy is having a late fitness test.

--------------Skippy----------------
-Young - Woodgate - Wheater - Taylor-
Boateng - Rochemback - Arca - Downing
---------Aliadiere - Mido---------------

Subs: Jones, O'Neil, Lee, Tuncay, Riggott

Expecting a tough, hard-fought game with a lot of cards being shown, but im gonna be optimistic and go with a Boro win.

West Ham 1 - 2 Boro
Bellamy Mido, Rochemback
 
We've gone with

Reina,
Finnan, Agger, Carragher, Arbeloa,
Pennant, Sissoko, Alonso, Benayoun,
Crouch, Voronin

Subs: Itandje, Hyypia, Torres, Gerrard, Babel.
 
Didn't know Baines was a little diver? :(.
Ferdinand is looking incredibly average against Yakubu (again).
Giggs is nowhere (again)... Seriously, I don't think he's touched the ball yet.

Edit, Giggs has just touched it. A pass heavy by 20 yards, ugh.

At least Tevez has looked good.
 
:mad: left Torres as captain of my ff team (and still got Gerrard in), hopefully Torres and Gerrard come off the bench and do something.
 
lucky Utd, Brown misses a header and goes flying to the ground leaving Everton with a 2 on 1 and the ref gives a foul to Utd
 
Yakubu was through there, made a muppet of Brown, NEVER a free-kick. Should have been 1-0 Everton.

It's the performance you'd expect from us given the line-up. That's all I'm gonna say...
 
dissapointed with the team liverpool have picked quite fancied watching Torres play today

Surely putting Nani and Ronaldo on the wings and Saha up front with Tevez would hae been a better idea...

Shame it's so clear for every fan out there. Giggs has no touch. I'd also drop Silvestre. Seriously, just play with 10 men. He's such a displeasure to watch, you're always scared he's gonna mess up... and he normally does.
 
Well, Fergusons hand has been forced into a good change now, Evra at LB (after all, he is a LB) and Nani on the wing.

Obviously my cursing worked.... Now for Giggs :p.
 
Nice gesture by the Everton fans by the way, in a time and age where opposing fans regularly boo a stretchered player or an injured player, it's nice to see them cheer.
 
Scholes should have been sent off. One stupid showing of petulance and two bookable tackles this half.
So to top the fact he's been slow, ineffective, unable to pass a ball he now should have been off.

I'm also really growing to dislike Nani. Cheating little ****.
