Moyes may make a couple of changes for Fulham

West Ham have a clean bill of health after the exertions of Liverpool and will go into the match against Fulham full of confidence they are ready to start climbing the table.

Aaron Cresswell was the only player over whom there appeared to be any doubt at all looking at one point  as though he may have suffered a groin problem during the match at Anfield.

But we have learned that the left back is fine and will be in training this week ready for the London Stadium clash against Scott Parker’s outfit.

And it seems likely that Issa Diop – agitating for a return – will have to wait again with Fabian Balbuena currently showing very good form.

It maybe that Moyes will decide this is the ideal game to  give Said Benrahma his debut – or at least a lot longer on the pitch – than he received against Liverpool.

Seb Haller may be handed another chance in the central striking role although Moyes is bound to consider starting Andriy Yarmolenko who showed far more energy than the Frenchman when he arrived as a sub at the weekend.
