Reserves Take On Gunners



WEST Ham United Reserves resume their campaign in the Premier Reserve League South this evening when they take on London rivals Arsenal at Barnet.

Kevin Keen has named a much-changed side form the one that drew 2-2 with Tottenham Hotspur at Upton Park before Christmas.

Only Chris Cohen and Kyel Reid remain, with the experienced Andy Melville returning along with a number of the Club's emerging young players.

Youssef Sofiane, who was an unused first-team substitute against Norwich City on Saturday, plays up front with Tony Stokes, while Ollie Allen and Sam Wright come in to the midfield. Moses Ashikodi, having just returned from injury, starts on the bench.

In defence, Melville will partner Darren Blewitt with Jemel Henry and Danny Bunce at right and left back respectively.

The team to take on Arsenal is as follows:

1. Darren Behcet (GK)
2. Jemel Henry
3. Danny Bunce
4. Andrew Melville
5. Darren Blewitt
6. Chris Cohen
7. Oliver Allen
