Pelle fingers crossed for international duty Hammers

|

West Ham could very easily send out the team that was successful against Norwich City next Monday evening at Aston Villa assuming all international players return uninjured.

Mark Noble, Felipe Anderson and Andriy Yarmolenko were all substituted in the 2-0 win over the Canaries  but no injuries have been reported and Yarmo has of course performed for the Ukraine in their first game during the international break.

Both Noble and Anderson are believed to be 100 per cent fit meaning that only Winston Reid and Michail Antonio are sidelined for the game.

The West Ham internationals looking to avoid any problems in upcoming matches this week include Lukasz Fabianski who could be involved  tonight against Austria whilst Robert Snodgrass is in the Scottish squad which meets Belgium .

Declan Rice is likely to be involved in the starting X1 against Kosovo tomorrow and Fabian  Balbuena could be selected for the match between Paraguay and Jordan.

Pablo Fornals is now between the under 21 and senior Spanish side and has not been included in their squad for the game against Montenegro tomorrow (Tues).
