Ramsey out as Moysie plots slay day
Just as they did against Chelsea, the Hammers will be looking to strike early as they bid to make it six points from nine.
The boss said: “If we can score another early goal, we’ll be thrilled.”
One Gooner for whom Moyes has particular admiration – Aaron Ramsey (hamstring) – will be missing along with centre-back Shkodran Mustafi.
Jack Wilshere could make his first Premier League start for Arsenal since 2016 as a result of the Ramsey injury with the Irons boss expecting to face a strong Gunners side.
He said: “I really like Aaron Ramsey. I tried to sign him for Everton before he went to Arsenal and he’s turned out to be a terrific player.
“Jack Wilshere is also an excellent footballer, but maybe some of his injury problems have held him back.
“I’m not an expert on Arsenal, but whoever will be play will be good players.
“Olivier Giroud scored against me last year at Sunderland. He’s important for Arsenal and who knows if he’ll start after he scored off the bench on Sunday? They’ve got good forwards and we’ll have to work hard to keep them out.”
