First Look At Tevez And Mascherano This Sunday

Filed in archive Premiership 2006/7 on September 8, 2006

Viewers on both sides of the Atlantic will get the chance to see exactly what West Ham have bough/leased (depending on how you view the situation) in Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano, when the pair line up for the Hammers against Aston Villa this Sunday (10th September).

If you live in England, it's a 4 p.m. kick off, live on Sky Sports One. If you're in America (or 'Merica, as George Bush calls it) it's an 11 a.m. post-breakfast kick off, live on Fox Soccer chanel.

With all due respect to West Ham's forward line (and there's plenty due to Dean Ashton and Teddy Sherringham) Tevez can expect to be the star striker, but I'll be interesting to see how Mascherano fits in with Nigel Reo-Coker. Will Mascherano play a holding role, giving Reo-Coker even more freedom to maraud from box to box? Or will they get in each others way?
