West Ham star makes ambitious admission ahead of Chelsea game

With just 12 Premier League games to go, it’s going to take a remarkable collapse from Chelsea if they’re to surrender their comfortable position atop the table. The only team with 63 or more points after 26 games not to go on to win the title was Arsenal in 2007/08.

Manuel Lanzini has scored seven times in 11 Premier League London derbies – compared to just four goals in 38 games against sides from outside the capital.

“We are preparing different solutions to limit the strengths of our opponent, but it’s important for us to play our idea of football, bring our philosophy, try to play, score, defend very well and play with high intensity”. “If you ask me if I imagined him in this new position, no”. His place was anything but guaranteed at the beginning of the season. but he proved himself.

Moses’ impressive form so far this season has reportedly attracted the interest from Barcelona and Chelsea moved fast to tie him to the club until 2021. And their only other league game at the London Stadium this season against a team now in the top six resulted in a 1-5 defeat to Arsenal. “The last game against West Ham was an exception”.

And Kante’s impressive performances in midfield following his arrival from Leicester earned him the London Player of the Year accolade last week.

Guest “Chelsea” this season, the team is very discreet – only 5 out of 13 games outside the “Stamford Bridge” yielded more than two goals scored.

Fabregas, though, has seized his chance to impress when given a rare chance to start a Premier League game for the current leaders.

Kick off is at 20:00 on 6 March 2017.

West Ham will be without the suspended Michail Antonio for this match following his dismissal at Watford on MD26.

Noble added: “They are great at scoring goals, are great at defending and are strong in midfield, so we have to be at our best and, if they’re not quite on it, we can get a result”.

But West Ham boss Slaven Bilic has said he’s not surprised by the player’s break through this season, having managed him with the Hammers last season.
