West Ham's recent 1-0 loss to Wolves has seemingly ignited a fire under manager Graham Potter. The defeat, coupled with a string of underwhelming performances, has left Potter feeling the pressure for the first time since his January arrival. His response? A potential overhaul of the starting XI for the crucial Bournemouth clash. The article predicts at least five changes, signifying Potter's determination to see a marked improvement. The most obvious alteration is expected upfront, with Niclas Fullkrug, who showed positive signs in the Wolves game, likely to start. Fullkrug's attitude and work rate will be a welcome sight for frustrated West Ham fans. Defensive changes are also anticipated. The article speculates on a shift away from the five-at-the-back formation, particularly for home games. Jean-Clair Todibo is likely to replace Konstantinos Mavropanos, potentially leading to a further change with Aaron Cresswell making way for a midfielder to accommodate a four-man defense. Tomas Soucek and Edson Alvarez are the likely midfield replacements. With Mohammed Kudus returning from injury, he's expected to feature. The potential for a sixth change also exists, with either Ollie Scarles or Emerson Palmieri (pending a late fitness test) competing for a spot depending on the formation. This demonstrates a clear message: players are fighting for their future at the club. The predicted starting XI includes: Areola; Wan-Bissaka, Todibo, Kilman, Scarles; Soucek, Alvarez; Paqueta, Kudus, Bowen; Fullkrug. This drastic change signals a shift away from the 'nice guy' approach Potter initially adopted and reflects the urgency of the situation. With Bournemouth having won only once in their last seven games, West Ham fans will expect a convincing victory. The next eight games will be crucial for players to prove their worth to Potter. Meanwhile, Jamie Carragher, in a separate analysis, predicts a 2-1 West Ham victory, highlighting the tight nature of the fixture despite Bournemouth's current higher league position. He emphasizes the need for Potter to deliver results to secure his position at the club, given their recent poor run of form since his appointment.
