# West Ham fans react to predicted XI for Southampton clash

Some West Ham fans have reacted to [Football.London’s](https://t.co/S6oYBh3dfc?amp=1) predicted XI for this weekend’s clash with Southampton at the London Stadium.

The Hammers take on the Saints, with West Ham desperate for points as their poor run of form continues in the league.

David Moyes’ side are without a win since New Years Day, and will be looking to end that run this weekeend.

West Ham did put in a spirited performance against Liverpool at Anfield, with Pablo Fornals putting the Irons ahead before the Reds fought back to continue their superb run with a 3-2 win.

Southampton, meanwhile, have hit a bit of a dry spell as of late, losing three of their last five after Danny Ings almost singlehandedly fired the Saints out of the relegation picture.

[Football.London](https://t.co/S6oYBh3dfc?amp=1) published their predicted XI for the Hammers, and several West Ham fans took to Twitter to react to who they think will start at home against the Saints.

> Twitter: @westham\_gossip I reckon I’d swap noble for snods, Antonio where snods was and haller up top (@aboyc3y)

> Twitter: @westham\_gossip @Football\_LDN Antonio is not a striker!!! (@willearle\_)

> Twitter: @westham\_gossip @Football\_LDN Antonio was put in to cover. Why is he still playing striker. Imagine we sold 4 strik… https://t.co/cY36D6yggS (@East86780286)
