If berbatov and taraabt both play as well as they have their last two games for us, together, then i am excited... Berba looked back to his best and taraabt has looked pretty decent too.

[General]

Best news though is Ruiz is nowhere to be seen! :)

In theory it should work well, with Taarabt playing as the #10 to help out Parker and Sidders from deep.

Hopefully both him and Berba don't do that, though, otherwise we'll get cramped in the middle.

We'll finally get to see Berbatov go mad when Taaraby doesnt pass to him

[Northern Cottager]

Good looking team!

I fear for Taarabt

Could be 4231:-

           Parker      Sidwell
Duff.         Taarabt.         Richardson
                Berbatov

As long as Berba stays up top when Taarabt is in the pocket and visa versa.

I would rather Dejagah than Duff but let's see. Nice to see Dembele on the bench.
And no Cole in the WH starting XI. That's good as he always scores against us

[K33NY]

Yeah saw on Fulham wesbite, they are running the lineup you show here, interesting! :)

You're correct. That's exactly how Sky have us set up Leon

[theotherdembele]

Same agree with the comment of Dejagah instead of Duff, disappointed kasami's not playing but he has played the last 2 games so fitness is most likely the issue. The lineup is slightly more defensive then hoped considering West Ham's defensive frailties at the moment.

P.S Senderos and Amor frightens the living daylight out of me!

[Zu-Meister]

no centre mids on the bench is a bit strange

[Count Berbatov]

I don't feel this is the best possible starting XI. another lineup where the players havent played together before. Duff wasn't impressive. Richardson just now beginning regularly as a winger. Taarabt isn't a good No 10 due to his decision making
I hope they will be high on energy at least
