Pellegrini gives injury update

|
Manuel Pellegrini has confirmed that Marko Arnautovic and Aaron Cresswell trained all week but Samri Nasri remains out with a calf injury.

The West Ham manager told reporters at Rush Green this lunchtime “Marko Arnautovic and Aaron Cresswell worked the complete week but Samir Nasri needs more time to work on his calf injury. Marko worked the complete week. It is good news, of course. He is a player who makes a difference and important for our team. He needs to recover his best form after not playing and his last injury and I hope he will be an important player for the remainder of the season.

On Jack Wilshere, the Chilean gaffer added: “Jack will finish his eight weeks after his ankle surgery next week. He will return to different work and we will see how he is.”

The manager confirmed that Yarmolenko, Winston Reid and Carlos Sanchez will not return this season and there is a doubt on Jack Wilshere. He told the press pack  “Andriy Yarmolenko, Winston Reid and Carlos Sanchez will not be back this season. Jack Wilshere, I have some doubts if he will be ready, so we have some players who will not be ready to play before the end of the season.”
West Ham is jointly top of the Premier League injury table with Arsenal with seven players out each.

    Every recent season we top the injury table most of the time..why ? It cant just be bad luck.i know we do buy certain players that are injury prone but not all of them !! Even nasri has now been effected .since he was injured they say “should be back this week” then come the press conference he is still a “week” away .😠😠😠😠😠
