Is this the West Ham XI to beat Astra Giurgiu?

Monday night was disappointing, we all know that.

The performance wasn’t expected but I can’t help but feel it would’ve been very different had we had a full strength squad out there.

Dimitri Payet made an impact when he came on for the final 25 minutes, coupled with a formation change, and the likes of Sofiane Feghouli and Manuel Lanzini were obviously sorely missed.

Michail Antonio had a mare at right-back again, and you’d like to think Sam Byram did enough when he came on to convince Bilic that he can be his first choice right-back moving forward.

But how does Bilic line up against Astra on Thursday night? Here’s what we think he might do…

1. Darren Randolph


26. Arthur Masuaku

21. Angelo Ogbonna


2. Winston Reid


22. Sam Byram


4. Havard Nordtveit


16. Mark Noble


8. Cheikhou Kouyate


11. Enner Valencia


17. Gokhan Tore


9. Andy Carroll
