KEVIN Keen has named senior players Rufus
Brevett and Andy Melville in his Reserve team to face Chelsea at
Aldershot in the Barclaycard Premier Reserve League South this
evening.
Brevett's last outing for the Hammers was in the Reserves'
2-2 draw with Tottenham Hotspur in December, but he has been an
unused substitute in the last two first-team matches.
Matt Reed returns in goal for Darren Behcet, while Tommy Laws
starts at right back in place of Jemel Henry. Darren Blewitt will
again be paired in the centre of defence with former Welsh
international Melville, while Chris Cohen, Sam Wright, Youssef
Sofiane and Kyel Reid make up a young midfield quartet.
Up front the presence of Moses Ashikodi is paired with the energy of Greg Pearson, who has returned from a loan spell at Canvey Island.
The team to face Chelsea is as follows:
- Matthew Reed (GK)
- Tommy Laws
- Rufus Brevett
- Andy Melville
- Darren Blewitt
- Chris Cohen
- Youssef Sofiane
- Sam Wright
- Moses Ashikodi
