Gold sends Antonio a goodwill message

|

AntonioDavid Gold has sent a heartfelt message to Michail Antonio telling the £7 million summer signing he is showing a great attitude.

Antonio arrived at the club on deadine day but apart from a brief appearance as sub at Manchester City has not figured in Slaven Bilic’s plans.

But he has regularly made it clear that he is ready to wait for his chance and has been training brilliantly according to reports.

And tonight Gold has sent an encouraging message to the 25 year old who arrive with a reputation as one of the best players in the Championship via his favoured social network .

He tweeted: Great attitude Michail. Your time will come. Good luck. dg 

Earlier today DG was sent a tweet by a prankster, asking to spread awareness of a “missing” Hammers fan.

Gold obliged, only for the fan to turn out to be West Ham winger Antonio.
