The Dugout Discussion – West Ham United vs Arsenal

3 December 2016 3023 comments

A dramatic Saturday comes to its conclusion as West Ham United take on Arsenal at the London Stadium.

All eyes are on the Gunners’ Alexis Sanchez as he looks for a fourth double-figure haul on the road.

Having scored twice against Bournemouth last week, the Chilean headed into Gameweek 14 just one point off the top of the Fantasy Premier League standings.

An injury to Philippe Coutinho has prompted new interest in Theo Walcott – the wide man earned more transfers in than any player last week after notching his sixth of the season against Eddie Howe’s side.

The search for a new midfielder means we’ll also be monitoring the display of Dimitri Payet, with the Hammers’ schedule taking a turn for the better from Gameweek 16 onwards.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

      We were absolutely dreadful for most of the game.

      First goal and his assist came from a defensive error and Sanchez squared for Ozil for an open goal.

      The goals themselves were all self made and good goals, the last one was filthy.

      Keep Firmino though, West Ham are ATROCIOUS.

      Captaining Kane hardly a disaster, Hazard did score today and advising people to do Hazard > Sanchez was based on the run of fixtures yet to come as well as the money spent elsewhere you're not taking into account.
