Fabianski, Rice, Diop updates

West Ham are hopeful of their big three returning for the game against Brentford on Saturday afternoon!

Lukasz Fabianski, Declan Rice and Issa Diop all continued to train at Rush Green on the advice of Head of Medical, Richard Collinge, as two Hammers teams took on Wycombe Wanderers and  Ipswich yesterday afternoon.

All three had apparently been suffering very minor knocks from training and given their importance to the team were withheld from any contact situations.

None of the ‘knocks’ are in anyway serious but the decision was taken as a precautionary measure according to a ClaretandHugh source.

Whilst it is hoped they will see some minutes in the game against the beaten Championship play off finalists no chances will be taken with the opening game of the season just over two weeks ago.

However, David Moyes is hoping they will be able to get some game time registered before we take on Newcastle United on September 12.
