West Ham Starting Lineup Prediction vs AFC Bournemouth
West Ham United manager Graham Potter certainly had a theme to his post-match press conference last night. Potter didn't understand why there was a mandatory water break in each half of his side's 2-1 preseason win over Everton at Soldier Field in Chicago. He started off the presser by making a joke about it, and then employed a basic staple of all comedians- the call back. … [Read more...] about West Ham Starting Lineup Prediction vs AFC Bournemouth

West Ham Team News, Starting Lineup Prediction at Ipswich Town
For West Ham United and Ipswich Town, this season cannot end fast enough. For the Tractor Boys, their long-awaited return to the Premier League was as short-lived as possible.

And that is not much of an accomplishment; especially for a club of this size, with this level of … [Read more...] about West Ham Team News, Starting Lineup Prediction at Ipswich Town
West Ham Team News, Starting XI Prediction at Everton FC
West Ham United travels to Everton FC for a 15th versus 16th clash that, when we put it that way, makes us wonder why it is even possibly worth being previewed.

West Ham United Starting XI Prediction vs Newcastle United
Ahead of the visit from Newcastle United on Monday night, West Ham United are indeed in a very weird place. They are nowhere near worried about relegation, but at the same time, a qualification slot for UEFA competition next season is likewise a world away. I guess the rest of the season is kind of dead rubber; in one sense. Kind of hard to gauge what the effort will look … [Read more...] about West Ham United Starting XI Prediction vs Newcastle United

West Ham Team News vs Brentford: Todibo, Paqueta, Alvarez, Summerville
