Today's match at Southampton should offer a more reliable measure of how West Ham will do this season as a lot of teams will be beaten at Old Trafford. Bilic has quite a few selection options to consider. I'd play Cresswell over Masuaku at left-back and there might even be a case for bringing in Fonte to a five-man defence. He'd get a lot of stick from the home fans and that just might inspire him to have a good match and prove 'the immutable law of of the ex'.
Antonio is fit so has to come in to he side and will certainly provide more energy up front, presumably at the expense of Fernandes or Ayew. It was also good to see Sakho get on the pitch at Old Trafford. He's a fine striker when fit, so at some stage it would be interesting to see him partner Hernandez. While young Daclan Rice might also have put himself in contention. After coming on for Mark Noble he completed 22 passes, didn't give the ball away once, and looked entirely at home against Pogba and Matic. Whoever plays, with four away games in a row, we have to get something from St Mary's. Irons!
