West Ham Super Fans want David Moyes to leave Tomas Soucek out of his eleven for the clash against Everton on Sunday.
The Athletic’s Roshane Thomas wrote, “It would not come as a surprise if Moyes rested Soucek at Everton, with one eye on the Europa League game at home against Belgium’s Genk on Thursday.
“Soucek played the full 90 minutes in both Czech Republic’s World Cup qualifiers last week against Wales and Belarus.”
This is a view that has been shared among many of the Hammers fans.
Soucek hasn’t started the season too well and after playing two full international games, they believe it’s best that he doesn’t start this one.
Here’s what they said:
Fair enough
Soucek needs a game or two away from the thick of the action to regain his form.
He has been one of Moyes’ favourites since last season, but it’s time the manager makes a tough decision regarding him.
We’ve seen just how talented a player he is when on song and Moyes would know that he’s fatigued and could consider testing him on Sunday.
Alex Kral was signed in the summer and he’s proven himself to be a quality midfielder both for club and country.
Soucek could be reinstated back into the lineup for the Europa League clash, but it will be best if he sits this one out.
