West Ham Team News

The Conference League winner for last season started the season with a draw against Bournemouth. West Ham is in a difficult position. Declan Rice left the club, and they signed Edson Alvarez and James Ward-Prowes, but another problem is the future of Lucas Paqueta who is Manchester City’s target.

West Ham already had problems in attack after Gianluca Scamacca left the club and if Paqueta also leaves, they will be in big trouble.

The Hammer have four very difficult games in the next five rounds. They will play against Chelsea, Brighton, Man City, and Liverpool.

Potentially this run game be very problematic for them because. Also, in September they will start the Europa League group phase.

West Ham must sign the striker and resolve Lucas Paqueta’s situation. In opposite they will be far from a place in the top 10 in the table.

Chelsea Team News

Chelsea once again signs a lot of new players. In the last couple of days, they signed Romeo Lavia and Moises Caicedo and now they have a completely different midfield.

This team played fantastically in the first game of the season against Liverpool and maybe deserved all three points and it will be exciting to watch them under Mauricio Pochettino.

The main problem remains the same and that is the striker. They must sign number nine because, for a couple of seasons, they have had problems with that position.

Also, another problem is injuries. They have a lot of injured players and when those players return to action and if they sign a striker, Chelsea will be a very quality team.
