@COYIrons_com have asked loads of fellow West Ham fans a devilishly difficult question on social media, but the majority of them have gone for the same answer.
They posted pictures of Billy Bonds, Trevor Brooking, Alan Devonshire and Frank McAvennie and posed the brutal conundrum of picking a team and having to leave one of them out.
How could you go without the steely loyalness of Bonds at the back, or the unwavering natural ability of Brooking in the centre, or the skillfulness and flare of Devonshire out wide or the goals of McAvennie up top?
Surprisingly, a large group were able to ruthlessly pick one of them to sit on the bench and that man was McAvennie in spite of his multitude of Hammers strikes, just think of those in that incredible ‘boys of ’86’ campaign and iconic partnership with Tony Cottee.
Who would you have chosen?
That’s not a difficult one, Frankie Mac all day long. Out of the other 3 who would you drop? That’s difficult. 🤔

Unfortunately it has to be maca because Billy Bonds stops them and Trevor Brooking and Alan Devonshire were so good at creating chances any bloke off the street could score

Has to be Frank. And that is a wrong to ask that👍🏻

Ahhh tough, but I am of the era where I am afraid Frank has to be left out. Sadly.
