The last time West Ham won at Anfield I was less than a year old. And let’s face it, it’s not likely to happen today, is it? I suppose stranger things have happened, but I’m not sure I can think of many at the moment. But this is West Ham we’re talking about. Anything can happen.
But seriously, if we are to get anything out of this game we have to win in midfield. Our midfield three are more than capable of holding their own, but I wonder whether Bilic might stick an extra defender in there, to play just in front of the back four. Maybe Reece Oxford might reprise the role he played against Arsenal. This would mean sacrificing a wide player but with hints that Bilic wants to pass the bus, this wouldn’t surprise me.
