View: Three ways West Ham can line-up in defence v Man United after Gold update

4-2-3-1: New signing starts

Pablo Zabaleta would be handed his first competitive start in claret and blue if the Hammers go with plan back four, which is expected of Bilic in just over a fortnight.

The Argentinian would line-up alongside Italy international Angelo Ogbonna and Euro 2016 winner Jose Fonte who would team up at centre-back in place of Reid.

Aaron Cresswell will look to continue the form that saw him earn an England cap on the left side of defence, as the hammers travel to Old Trafford.
