Injury blow for West Ham

GingeJames Collins limped off from West Ham’s U23 Checkatrade trophy game against Wycombe Wanderers at Adam Park last nigh after just 22 minutes.

A Hammers’ 2-0 defeat saw them slip to second in the Group C but they still go through to the final 32 and will now face Luton in the next round.

The 34-year-old has been injured since September after suffering an ankle injury against West Brom at the Hawthorns during a 0-0 draw.

The Ginger Pele has been eager to return in what he considers could be his last season at West Ham and is frustrated at the latest setback in his recovery.

It’s a big blow for the player and the squad who now have just Winston Reid, Declan Rice and Angelo Ogbonna available at central defence as we approach the busiest time of the year.
