A modified 3-5-2 formation West Ham should adopt for Arsenal clash
Posted on 22 April 2018.
The West Ham lads travel to the Emirates today to play our old rivals, Arsenal. There is a sense of optimism of returning home with at least a point; Arsenal do not have much to play for in terms of the Premier League and are probably more concerned about an up-coming Europa League semi-final. The […]

Tactics: How West Ham can outclass Liverpool on Saturday
Posted on 03 November 2017.
Amidst the doom and gloom that surrounds our club, West Ham welcomes Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool to the London Stadium for the late Saturday game. Liverpool presently occupy 6th position in the Premier League, and left to their own devices, can beat nearly any team on their day. That said, there are ways of overcoming their high-press, aggressive […]

Tactics: How West Ham must approach huge clash v Swansea
Posted on 29 September 2017.
West Ham return to the London Stadium on Saturday for a crucial encounter against Swansea City. Despite a late second half resurgence, the Hammers lost a gallant fight against a rampant Spurs side last weekend. As disappointing as it appeared, there were some good points to be taken from the defeat. The back three looked […]

Two strong formations West Ham should consider v Liverpool
Posted on 10 December 2016.
The up-coming game against Liverpool, s an ideal time for Slaven Bilic to implement some fine-tuning in formation and player positioning before the all-important four games which will take us up to the New Year. While we have problems in both attack and defence, an improvement in goal scoring will most likely to improve team […]

Two tactics West Ham should use to ensure double delight at Old Trafford
Posted on 25 November 2016.
After recovering from the disappointment of an unnecessary loss to Tottenham, we must move on and give serious consideration to our two important encounters with Manchester United. The first of these games, playing on Sunday, is an away Premier League fixture at Old Trafford, followed by a Tuesday evening EFL Cup quarter-final encounter, once again […]

3-5-2, two strikers: The changes West Ham must make to beat Stoke
Posted on 04 November 2016.
Following the disappointing loss to Everton, we are once again faced with the continuing challenge of goal scoring. We did have some good chances in the first 25 minutes or so, but failed to convert. From this moment, our midfield five lost its shape, players suddenly appeared static and we were reduced to pushing vertical […]

The tactic needed for West Ham to achieve top four dream…
Posted on 11 April 2016.
For 90 pulsating minutes, West Ham and Arsenal put on a display worthy of an FA Cup final at Wembley. Ignore the final 3-3 final outcome, this was as close to ‘total’ football you might ever wish to see. There is very rarely an Arsenal side that could be called second-rate; Saturday was no different, despite a

Two formations West Ham should consider until the end of the season
Posted on 07 April 2016.
For many of us, an unexpected element of luck comes our way during our lifetime. When we examine the overall history of our club, I think it only fair to say that luck has not always been on our side. However, when I awoke the other morning, it took me very little time to appreciate

The attacking formation West Ham need to brush aside Crystal Palace
Posted on 01 April 2016.
With eight Premier League games remaining this season, it is imperative that we view each game as a winnable challenge. Before we focus attention on the crucial matches against Arsenal and Leicester, it is important that we unleash our most offensive line-up in order to secure a win against a weakened Crystal Palace side, who have

Posted on 19 March 2016.
Slaven Bilic has come to West Ham and his performance as manager has been nothing short of magnificent. Despite an enormous injury list which has threatened to ruin his best laid plans, he has managed to put together a squad which has seen us reach 5th position in the Premier League, and an FA Cup

The tactic to prevent West Ham from starting slowly in future
Posted on 16 February 2016.
The most astute of West Ham observers have noticed a problem seen over the past month or so, which is our inability to start the game with a real intent of gaining control of the game and scoring early goals. I agree that we have had a recent problem of slow starts in the first

Playmakers and goal scorers: The three formations West Ham can turn to…
Posted on 05 December 2015.
It was barely three weeks ago, following the Everton game, when we lost Dimi Payet and Enner Valencia; there was an almost reflex, pervasive sense of ‘doom and gloom’, all around the West Ham community. “How will we cope” seemed to be the reflected sentiment at the time. On November 23 I wrote about the

Should West Ham consider this change in formation?
Posted on 23 November 2015.
My first thoughts in relation to a Scotty Parker’s suggestion that we are destined for a mid-table finish in the current Premier League season is that perhaps Slav has sown that he is ‘human’, after all. Our starting line-up against Spurs was clearly not right (no further arguments needed) – Carroll should not have started!
