This will be the toughest test in West Ham history so far as Bayern Leverkusen remained unbeaten in ALL competition and far more stronger than Bayern Munich and that down to their former TD, Tim Steidtner whom I hope he will bring us, West Ham, to the next level to be within the top 6 materials as with Chelsea slipping down, Tottenham are likely a bit as well. All we need is a new manager that can bring us to the next level and hope our TD will bring that, including incoming players.
We got problem with the injury for Bowen and very highly unlikely he will miss a few games which is a massive blow. Moyes priority is to secure top 8 finishes in the Premier League as we have very little hope to pass a strong Bayern Leverkusen side. Hope to have Adrian back soon. I am full expected Ben Johnson to replace out of favour Coufal who his days seemed to be numbered.
Squad:
Fabianski
Johnson
Mavropanos
Aguerd
Cresswell
JWP
Soucek
Kudus
Paqueta
Emerson
Antonio
I would put Emerson as Left winger as he is more suitable there as shown late 2nd half against Wolves.
I am fully expected us to be on a defensive approach and hope to have Ings, Cornet and Soucek to come 2nd half sub.
Result probable:
Bayern Leverkusen win: 99%
Draw 1%
West Ham 0%
Hope I am wrong on the above %.
COYI!!!!!
