Mikey’s miserable Reggae Boys debut
There will be few complaints from any of us that he was removed with the threat of injury ever present but there was nothing other than bitter disappointment for the player who – according to Hammers News – was involved in a trip totalling 10,500 miles in order to play.
Thankfully, covid issues have ensured that Mikey will only be involved in the one game but it remains a problem for the Hammers that he is taking part of all.
At 31 years of age – and with hamstring problems a prominent feature of his past – his decision to take part could present big problems with him the only available Irons traditional striker.
Manager David Moyes – whilst not wanting to restrict his international chances at a personal level – will be rightly concerned that the new commitment could rebound on him.
Qualification for the World Cup now looks out of the question for the Reggae Boys after a defeat which sees them bottom of their group after a defeat which saw Mikey isolated and left to chase hopeful punts forward.
