David Moyes was asked about West Ham Muslim players fasting during Ramadan and how it could affect the game on Monday.
The manager told reporters on Friday “It’s a really good question and one I am not an expert in answering but I know one is practising Ramadan and the other isn’t which they are entitled to do. I totally respect that and I will do everything I possibly can to make sure he is in the best condition. I noticed that during the week in one of the games the referee allowed for a water break which was good of the referee.”
Asked by reporters whether training at Rush Green been altered due to accommodate Ramadan the manager replied
“We have not altered and I don’t know if many clubs do, but that is a very good question to is there actually a better time to train the players if they are going through Ramadan, That is not something I have thought about is it better to train in the evening. It is something I should look at, to be honest.”
