Time for Hugill to get a chance?
If Jordan Hugill wasn't a panic buy, as many suspect, then we need to see what he can do on the pitch. It would be good to see him get some minutes today, particularly if Antonio or Hernandez is tiring. There's a history of unfancied workmanlike strikers causing problems in the Premier League, from Grant Holt to Rickie Lambert and Glenn Murray. Moyes seems positively glacial in his use of substitutions at times and you wonder why with West Ham 4-0 down at Swansea he didn't at least give Hugill a bit of experience for the final 30 minutes. The lad looks keen and the crowd will take to a trier. The Carroll factor is always an option when things aren't going well and presumably Hogan will give us that physicality. But whoever is selected we have to something from this.
