David Moyes gives positive team news

David Moyes appears to have a full squad to choose from with no injury doubts. Arthur Masuaku appears to be back in full training and Yarmolenko who was bought down by new signing Alex Kral was also spotted in training at Rush green today without any obvious problems.

David Moyes says he delighted with the condition of his West Ham squad ahead of Saturday’s Premier League trip to Southampton.

With no fewer than ten senior players returning to Club training from international duty this week, the manager was pleased to offer a positive update about his squad’s general fitness at his pre-match press conference.

Three of those internationals – summer transfer windows Kurt Zouma, Alex Král and Nikola Vlašić – have made their first appearances at Rush Green Training Ground this week, linking up with a rejuvenated Hammers squad ahead of a busy September fixture schedule.

“I think most things are all good,” Moyes said of his squad’s fitness. “I think it’s the first time since pre-season we’ve probably felt we’ve got everybody back. 

“Obviously we’ve got new players in as well, so it just feels like the end of [a] pre-season really. We’re trying to get everything in a good place. 

“It feels a bit like a fresh start, actually. We’ve got the boys back from international games because they’ve been away for a couple of weeks. I think we’re all in good shape here.”

The manager has a tough decision for Saturday’s trip to St Mary’s Stadium to pick his best eleven.
