West Ham United have a nearly fully fit squad right now, so when they visit Liverpool FC on Wednesday night, manager David Moyes has the luxury when deciding how strong of a team he wants to select. His side is of course through to the playoff portion of the UEFA Europa League, and also playing for a European football qualification berth, for next season, in the Premier League table.
So it is all about “management,” both literally and figuratively, for Moyes here.
