Manuel Lanzini: Again, Lanzini has been filling the score sheet in the preseason playing centrally and wide. His play with Fornals, Haller, and Anderson has been electric and playing the ball in the middle of the pitch has benefited his scoring abilities well. If he’s fit, he’s my pick to take the scoring title!

Sebastien Haller: Off the mark already and he looks an accomplished finisher. He may not get the 20 goals that everyone always bangs on about but I do think he will add goals and assists to the team as he looks to link the midfield in dangerous areas. The step from the Bundesliga to the Premier League isn’t huge, so if he can hit the ground running I think he’s going to be well worth the 45m.

Manuel Lanzini: It’s tough to base predictions off of preseason but Lanzini has made that easy. The Argentinian has been on fire so far and looks to be teaming up well with the supporting cast in midfield. Look for massive performances from the Jewel this season.

Jay

Sebastien Haller: West Ham fans would expect nothing less than Haller banging in goals for fun at the London Stadium this season. Coming into West Ham as the clubs record signing, I expect him to hit the ground running and show the Premier League what kind of lethal finisher he is.

Denver Scott

Manuel Lanzini: He has the one trait that so many of our players lack: a willingness to shoot. Antonio is willing to shoot, but Lanzini is far more accurate. Expect him to have a LOT more room in the area in front of the box and for him to use that touch to put the ball past the keeper often. I expect 15 goals from him this year.

Louis

Sebastien Haller: I think we have plenty of goals in the side, and they may well be shared out between a few players rather than one man scoring the bulk of them. However, off the back of scoring 19 goals last season for Eintracht Frankfurt, Haller will be looking to take the same vein of goalscoring to the Premier League, where he will likely be provided bundles of chances with the quality surrounding him.

Next. Josh Cullen’s season outcome has been decided. dark

And there you have it folks! If you like to bet then you can bet on these ones (insert sarcasm here). We obviously don’t know what’ll happen but that’s the beauty of this game but one thing I think we can all agree on is that West Ham will look more violent on offense and that’s been a long time coming.
