Hammers penny pinching finally came home to roost, big time, against Burnley during Saturday's lamentable performance, which ended in a 3-0 defeat that could have been far worse from a scoreline point of view, but could not have been much worse from an injury and performance perspective.

Burnley: Pope, Bardsley, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor, Hendrick, Westwood, Cork, McNeil, Wood, Barnes. Subs: Hart, Lowton, Pieters, Long, Brady, Lennon, Rodriguez.
West Ham: Roberto, Fredericks, Balbuena, Diop, Cresswell, Noble, Rice, Snodgrass, Fornals, Anderson, Haller. Subs: Martin, Zabaleta, Ogbonna, Sanchez, Lanzini, Yarmolenko, Ajeti.

There are times in life when being resilient and resistant to change can be commendable qualities, however West Ham United's beleaguered manager Manuel Pellegrini has found himself between a rock and a hard place when it comes to his team selections. Ahead of this Saturday's clash against Burnley at Turf Moor, Pellegrini's modus operandi is being called in to question by an increasing amount of fans.
