Hammers boss David Moyes has a big squad available to him this season, and he will undoubtedly use it tonight.

Seven key first-team players reportedly haven’t even travelled up to Lincoln for tonight’s game.

So the Carabao Cup clash will represent a chance for some of the fringe layers to impress, and a few youngsters seemingly could get a chance as well…

Talented teenage duo with 13 senior minutes combined travel with West Ham squad to Lincoln

The Evening Standard claim that Jacob Knightsbridge and Kaelen Casey have travelled with the senior squad up to Lincoln today.

The duo have just 13 minutes of action for the first-team to their name. Casey, 18, was given a chance by Moyes last year away at FCSB. Knightsbridge, 19, is still yet to feature for the senior side.

Whether either of them get any minutes tonight remains to be seen, but the mere fact that they’re travelling with the first-team will be a great experience for both of them.

I’m really hoping that Moyes gives some of the youngsters big chances tonight. I fully expect Divin Mubama to play a part tonight, and Callum Marshall could be given some minutes as well.

Knightsbridge will probably be on the bench to cover for Lukasz Fabianski and Casey is probably the most likely to get some minutes out of the two.

Either way, it’s great that so many youngsters seem to be involved with the squad tonight.
