Hell no. This lineup is extremely risky and either way it goes it'll be exciting as hell.

If we have a decent game against that line up, something is seriously wrong.

No, I'm sure Soldado, Holtby and Eriksen are being rested, Lamela who knows. ..

This is going to be fascinating. Not at all convinced by Sherwood but it'll be interesting to see what happens.

You got some statistical evidence to back that up?

You forgot Defoe = VDV
Think VDV was injuried and ade and Defoe had a run at the start of that season. Even Harry dropped the 4 4 2 notion in favour of something less rigid with touch line wingers running up and down all day
Well until that infamous one off game he reverted back to it and we were beaten.

Lol Jesus wept! Now I know how the avb out crowd felt when the team line up was released

That lineup would get spanked against a decent team. I'm just glad that West Ham's second string isn't a decent team so we should be ok.

Good point. Alf Ramsey's 4-4-2 teams were nicknamed 'wingless wonders' because when he played a winger (just the one), he played them in a 4-4-3. But that was a long time ago, and yes, tactics evolve. It always puzzles me that the lkes of 442, 443 etc don't give you a clue about how the teams play in possession or out of possession, and imply some sort of symmetricality - basically they don't really say much at all.

I don't think it's risky, compare it to the only season we qualified for CL. We played 442 with modric and huddlestone and crouch and Defoe. Pretty much all season

Someone mentioned his brother posted on twitter he was injured/not playing tonight. Or maybe I made that up.

I think we've just gone for square peg square hole. A right winger on the right, a left winger on the left. With the players available I can't see much of a different formation. I think the reason why Soldado hasn't started could be because he's so used to playing up front on his own, Sherwood might think that Defoe and Ade might be a better choice seeing as they've played that formation.
I just want to see attacking football and players that show they want to play for the club, fans but more importantly for themselves

How many are Spammers 2nd string? I thought thats the best they could do.
I don't think this is any indicaiton at all when it comes to how we line up on Sunday. This is basically a mix of neglected players and the only fit defence + Lennon.
