West Ham vs Wolves: Premier League – live | Premier League

18 minutes: In a VERY Sunday League-typical move, Summerville has to take off his undershirt, which doesn’t seem to clash with the rest of his gear.

15 minutes: “I’m sitting on the sofa next to Molineux,” writes Peter Higginson via email. “If Gary O’Neill can drink 20 teas a day, I can eat 20 meatballs like I do. I predict a Wolves defeat and Gary won’t be there tomorrow.”

Twenty meatballs! Peter! I am in awe.

Kind of reminds me of Superpedjason on Instagram, who is also a miracle of a man.

13 mins: Excellent performance from Lemina as she came back and took the ball from a leaping Bowen who strode forward with intent. The Gabonese is a very useful footballer for Wolves.

11 mins: Summerville, who plays on the left wing for West Ham, has looked very good. By the way, for the hosts, Bowen plays as a central striker, with Kudus on the right, but he is sandwiched in so that Wan-Bissaka can break forward from the right side of defense (just like he did at Newcastle).

9 minutes: There is applause throughout the stadium for Antonio, who is wearing West Ham’s number 9 shirt. Jamaica flags also hang in the stands. Hopefully Antonio will watch this from the hospital and get a boost from it.

7 minutes: The Wolves concede a cheap free kick right on the left touchline. They have conceded 13 goals from set pieces this season, by far the worst record in the Premier League. West Ham’s Summerville throws a dangerous ball at the front post, but Alvarez misses his shot. The Mexican should have done better.

4 minutes: West Ham have settled in well. The Wolves didn’t really have a kick yet.

2 minutes: A few home fans in the stands show off their Antonio jerseys in support of the worn-out striker.

Peeeeeeeeep! The game begins as bubbles float gently across the board.

The teams are out! West Ham in their wine red and blue, Wolves in their old gold. It’s nice to see the two teams not as they should be.

Except Gary O’Neil drinks 20 cups of tea a dayI’m also worried about how much time he spends on the toilet. If an average cup of tea contains 300 ml and he drinks 20, that’s six liters or a lot of liquid.

“I hope so, if Lopetegui Finally gets the tip that Mark Noble gets the job as manager,” writes Ian Burch via email. “The local man, club legend and Sullivan supporter will turn down the offer of a club car so he can take the bus to home games, is used to dealing with angry Hammers fans storming the pitch and can instill discipline in the team, by showing up” with a plan for players to clean up the locker room after games. He can also be counted on to add alcohol back to the players’ pre-game pie-and-mash meals, a ban that saw Lopetegui lose the locker room on the first day.”

Should repeat West Ham’s performance against Leicester wasn’t bad at all, at least offensively. They had 31 shots with an xG of 3.1. No team has played and lost the game in more than seven years.

Lopetegui speaks!

To Antonio:

What is more important is that the person, the father, the son, the brother that he is, is doing well. We spoke to him today.

About wolves:

Our approach is to do well against a good team. It won’t be an easy task. There were a few positives after we lost at Leicester, but the most important thing is today’s game.

Is it possible to lose the locker room? based on your caffeine intake? There is definitely an absolute loss of pressure here.

Not every Wolves fan took this tea revelation well.

“No wonder we are so (terrible) when our manager spends all his waking hours in front of a (bleeding) kettle,” one supporter tweeted on Friday.

Seems very strange to me that Lopetegui has once again left Paqueta on the bench, particularly when he did so in West Ham’s last game, a 3-1 defeat at Leicester. This result doesn’t tell the whole story – the Hammers were very good for long stretches – but ultimately they weren’t determined enough. West Ham have other creators in Kudus, Bowen and Summerville, but Paqueta’s omission is once again glaring. It’s also interesting that Füllkrug still doesn’t get a starting place despite Antonio’s accident this evening.

Wolves make three changes from the eleven that lost badly at Everton, which is no surprise. Johnstone, Semedo and Toti all come into the lineup. Where is Jose Sa? In last season’s Premier League, the Portuguese had the most goals prevented of any goalkeeper, based on Opta’s expected goals against target rate. He has had an inconsistent season this season, clashing with Wolves fans following the 4-2 home defeat to Bournemouth earlier this month. Hwang is a good option on the bench, although he hasn’t been able to shoot properly this season due to his form and fitness.

The teams!
