First of all losing to Liverpool yesterday hurt, make no mistake about it, the ridiculous non use of VAR at the end of the game was pretty scandalous and has already been covered by many media outlets. It worked 'perfectly' for the visitors in order for Jarrod Bowen's goal to be written off, correctly as it happens, but was NOT USED at all despite one of the most blatant hand balls you will ever see from Liverpool, albeit despite being an 'accident'.

It is a well known fact that Mrs Moyes peruses all the Hammers fan sites and media outlets in order to keep her very busy Hubby up to date on the groundswell of opinion of fans. David Moyes HAD to have been impressed with the stunning victory of his youth set up as they won the FA youth Cup for the first time since 1999.

Ex-Hammers Kevin Keen and Jack Wilshere will be the opposing managers in this evening's FA youth Cup final, one served with distinction, the other fleeced the club for millions while occupying the medical room! Wilshere had plenty of 'gob' to say about the club when he finally left with over £10 Million in his sky rocket.

Much loved Hammers player Pablo Fornals used to be one of the first players on David Moyes' team sheets but the need to 'accommodate' new signings has seen him drop to the bench in all but a few Premier League games, although he has featured in all the 'Con Cup' games.

Bournemouth: Neto (C); Stephens, Kelly, Mepham; Smith, Lerma, Billing, Rothwell, Tavernier; Solanke, Christie Subs: Travers, Cook, Ouattara, Vina, Moore, Semenyo, Senesi, Zabarnyi, Anthony

Crucial games towards the business end of the season, particularly for those clubs embroiled in a Premier League survival battle, are often called six pointers. If ANY game deserves to be given that name, then West Ham United's game away to fellow strugglers Bournemouth at the Amex Stadium surely lives up to that title! Defeat would plunge Hammers back to the brink of the relegation abyss, a draw or a win could see the club virtually safe and sound depending on other results.

Between tonight's game against G(h)ent in London and Sunday's game against Bournemouth Hammers ENTIRE season could be defined, victory in both fixtures would see the club reach yet another European competition semi final AND secure Premier League football for next season. Of course defeat in either fixture will have the doom merchants jumping on board with their vast amounts of negative energy directed at the club.

According to a football 'super computer's' most recent findings West Ham United are almost certainly going to avoid being relegated, but only just and at the expense of one of the club's previously managed by current incumbent David Moyes. Southampton look done and dusted and only a miraculous run of results can possibly save them, Everton are teetering on the brink as are Leeds and Nottingham Forest!

Whether it is liked by fans or not, West Ham United have become serious title and major competition serial killers in the Premier League over the last few seasons. Sunday's draw against Premier League leaders Arsenal has severely dented their chances of winning their first major title since Arsene Wenger left AND before!
