Divin Mubama must get another another chance

West Ham have no money for transfers in January which should be a boost for Divin Mubama

Divin Mubama must get another another chance to impress after the poor team performance in Serbia from the Irons.

Divin Mubama must get another another chance to impress after the poor team performance in Serbia from the Irons.

It is going to be a close call for the lad as Jarrod Bowen‘s recovery would certainly see the No 20 in the central role but the teenager should certainly get a shout either as part of a two-up system, of as a sub who gets a decent number of minutes.

It would be tragic if after performing so well at Burnley he should again become a forgotten man following the hptton;e Europa Cup Grou[ A match.

There is no further news on the sick players tonight but Mohammed Kudus is known to have been very unwell and is probably a bit less than 50/50 to make the starting line up. Obviously we all want to see Jarrod make it but this is no time to lose sight of Divin with his contract situation still unresolved but with talks continuing.

One thing looks sure as far as I can see, Danny Ings is not a Moyes-type front manĀ  and really can’t play one-up as the manager wants. Bowen and Mubama are both more suited to that role and one way or another, depending on the No 20’s fitness, that is surely how Moyes has to work things tomorrow.
