West Ham could be without Paquetá and Todibo tonight as we face Nottingham Forest in a crucial Premier League fixture.
As reported by our very own ExWHUEmployee. Nuno Espírito Santo could be without Lucas Paquetá and Jean-Clair Todibo. They both face a race against time to be fit for the match.
Both players will undergo a late fitness test to see if they are fit enough to feature.
Out of pure speculation, I’d guess Lucas Paquetá is more likely to feature than Todibo. The Brazilian had the same fitness test ahead of the Wolves game, but didn’t quite make it. Many expected he would return for this game, but that wasn’t the case for Todibo.
Both players are crucial for this match, it’s hard to decide who I’d prefer for this one. We had no creativity against Wolves without Lucas, we missed his flair and eye for a pass. As for Todibo, if he doesn’t play it will probably mean Max Kilman has to start and we really don’t want that.
So, if I had to pick one I’d prefer Todibo pass the fitness test. Just because i genuinely don’t think we have any chance of winning with Kilman at the back, he’s been that bad.
But let’s hope luck is with us and both players are fit enough to start the match tonight. And let’s hope that good luck continues throughout the ninety minutes and we can get those crucial three points.
If neither of them are fit I don’t give us any chance of winning tonight. We might as well just kiss goodbye to our Premier League status already.
