Graham Potter has selected his West Ham United starting XI for the Premier League clash with Bournemouth this afternoon.
West Ham play host to Bournemouth in the Premier League today, and Graham Potter desperately needs a big performance from his players at the London Stadium.
The Hammers have endured an incredibly difficult campaign so far this season.
And Graham Potter has laid the gauntlet down to the West Ham players, by suggesting that they haven’t been anywhere near the levels he expects.
Now it’s time for every single Hammers player to produce the goods for the head coach and the fans.
West Ham starting XI vs Bournemouth
Potter has made three changes from the bitterly disappointing 1-0 defeat up at Wolves on Tuesday night.
The team he has selected is more than good enough to get a result against Bournemouth – let’s just hope the boys deliver.
Here’s the starting XI, as confirmed by the official West Ham X account:
Alphonse Areola, Aaron Wan-Bisska, Max Kilman, Jean-Clair Todibo, Ollie Scarles, James Ward-Prowse, Edson Alvarez, Tomas Soucek, Lucas Paqueta, Mohammed Kudus, Jarrod Bowen
Potter has refused to start Niclas Fullkrug, or Evan Ferguson for that matter.
The Hammers need players like the German in the starting XI, considering the fact that we desperately lack leaders.
Despite the fact that West Ham have little to play for between now and the end of the season, a win today will be vital in order to bring some optimism back to the London Stadium.
Let’s face it, Bournemouth will represent an extremely stern test.
But the players we have are more than good enough to cause them problems.
The West Ham starting XI selected by Graham Potter has more than enough about it to get the job done against Bournemouth.
However, it would have been nice to see Fullkrug start, there’s no doubting that.
