West Ham United have once again made a terrible start to the new season and the fans are having that all familiar sinking feeling which they had last year.
The Hammers have lost both their first league games – the first was a defeat to Liverpool while the second loss game this weekend vs AFC Bournemouth at home.
West Ham lost 4-0 to Liverpool after which manager Manuel Pellegrini chose to make a number of changes to his starting eleven during the clash vs the Cherries.
Pellegrini chose to axe the trio of Ryan Fredericks, Declan Rice and Michail Antonio.
Ryan Fredericks was replaced by Pablo Zabaleta at right-back, and since the manager chose to change the formation the duo of Rice and Michail Antonio were replaced by Javier Hernandez and Robert Snodgrass.
But after the line up was announced a number of reports had started claiming that the axed trio were out with respective injuries which immediately sent shock waves amongst the Hammers fans.
But Ex-WHU Employee who has always been a reliable source for news regarding West Ham United has cleared the air claiming that the replacements of Ryan Fredericks, Declan Rice and Michail Antonio were all tactical.
Tactical, along with rice and Antonio. https://t.co/Aspn3z61NQ
