Hammers injury issues improving

Manu Lanzini, Aaron Cresswell and Marko Arnautovic are all expected to be declared fit for the opening day visit to Manchester United next weekend.

And with Diafra Sakho and Winston Reid believed to have successfully come through a behind closed doors friendly against Spurs at Rush Green this afternoon the Hammers could be in good nick for the trip north.

Arnautovic  came off in the game in Iceland yesterday with what Slaven Bilic believes was cramp but the midfielder and left back missed the entire 90 minutes.

Lanzini has in fact missed the last four pre-season games after sustaining a knee problem in training but neither he or Creswell are considered to be in trouble long term and will make the game.

Michaeil Antonio however will miss the game but is expected to be ready for the game at Southampton on August 19.
