Dugout Discussion – West Ham vs Huddersfield

The Gameweek concludes at the London Stadium where West Ham are treated to their first home game of the campaign against Huddersfield Town.

At the start of the season, this appeared to be a fixture which would have seen us back the Hammers’ assets for returns. Three games in and the outlook is very different.

The Terriers turn up undefeated and with no goals conceded. That form has seen the likes of goalkeeper Jonas Lossl and defender Zanka pick up 8.4% and 10.4% ownership respectively. Meanwhile, playmaker Aaron Mooy is backed by 12.9% having produced a goal and an assist to this point.

But West Ham have the best-supported player on show tonight.

Chicharito is part of 1.4 million squads and is backed by 159,000+ (3.3%) with the captaincy.

Significantly, he’ll be supported by Andy Carroll in the West Ham attack, in what appears to be a 3-5-2 set-up deployed by the under pressure Slaven Bilic.

Joe Hart is the next best owned West Ham asset in action, although 71% of his 500,000 owners have chosen to bench him ahead of tonight’s clash.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      Playing for a team with 0 points with a manger on the verge of the sack vs a team who haven't conceded yet? Smart

    It looks to me that carol is holding the whole team back! Seems that everybody plays for him when they attack. Wrong sub in my opinion.

      When Carroll plays, West Ham forget that you can score goals other than by crossing the ball into Andy Carroll.

    Hernandez off. Damn. One of the few good things that has happened for me today is him not hauling.

    Chica captain punt went miserably

    Desparately needing a goal takes off best chance of getting one

    Sooner Bilic gets his p45 the better

      Hernandez owner per chance?

  8. FPL_JAAFAR

    Chica out

  9. TheTinman

    That is a damaging sub for a lot of people. Glad I don't own

  10. Fingerspitzengefühl

    Did Bilic just take out his one chance of getting a goal this game? Truly shitty coaching

    Grrrrrhhhhhh!!!!

  13. Bruno Bruno!!
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    That is a poor decision from bilic

    1. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 9 months ago

      in fairness Ayew is more suited to the wing then Chich, but he probably should have subbed Carroll and shift Chica to centre

  14. Syd.

    A Huddersfield goal and we will have another P45 on its way

  15. dfroes
    • 12 Years

    agree... cant understand why he subbed off Pea

    New guy already impressing in his role over lowe

  17. Rainer

    Chicha -> Mounie?

  18. Weasel Boy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Mane > Fabs
    Chico > Firmino
    For 2 FTs?

    1. Royal5
      • 12 Years

      Not for me

  19. laplana

    After capping Deeney last year I learnt my lesson to always captain the premiums.

  20. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    That Chica blanks is enough for me, he is gone

  21. Somalion

    Not sure what the Huddersfield wingers do except for bomb it forward in a straight line and lose the ball.

  22. Postman Ty

    Chich+Richarlison --> Firmino+4.5

    Pretty simple no-brainer right? Richarlison was rotating with Mooy but can't see myself playing him much with his fixtures.

    Hudds have the best defence in the league. Which three defenders should I get from them for -12?

    1. Fred54

      Have two on a WC, no joke.

    Think Bilic wants to get fired

      Really?
      West Ham 2 Huddersfield 0

  25. dark91

    Next move is to take Antonio out to secure a Huddersfield cs

  26. UshFPL
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 9 months ago

    Think I'll wait for Bilic to go to sell Chicha. New manager could revitalise Wham. He scores goals

    1. Forever In Our Shadow

      Yep.

    Horrible week. Played my WC for it.

    Aguero to Firmino
    Kolasinac to Naughton
    Mane owner
    Atsu owner
    RLC owner
    Lowe benched

    Made me rage do a 8 point hit this week haha. How does she look?

    Foster
    Alonso | Jones | Davies | Lowe
    Salah | Alli | Atsu
    Kane | Lukaku | Firmino

    Elliot | RLC | T. Carroll | Tuanzebe

    1. Forever In Our Shadow

      You might be taging again next week.

      1. KAPO KANE
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Look bad?

      2. KAPO KANE
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 9 months ago

        Took out Brady, Naughton and Mane for Davies, Salah and T. Carroll so can't imagine I'll miss out on much.

        All 11 playing at home too!

  29. Garlana

    Why bring chica off? Surely go for the win and remove either obiang or kouyate!?

    1. G-Whizz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Huddersfield seem to be enjoying playing on this big pitch. Surprising.
