Report: Hammers get huge injury boost…RONALDO OUT

|

West Ham have been given a huge injury boost but not from inside our own squad.

No, the great news is that Manchester United will suffer through the absence of Cristiano Ronaldo with the club’s main man being ruled out of today’s game ay Selhurst Park.

That could be deciding favour in the game which United need to win to ensure they finish in sixth place above the Irons should we win at Brighton this afternoon.

According to Sky Sports. via Hammers News United  have confirmed they will be without top scorer Ronaldo for the Europa League decider as he is suffering from an injured hip and therefore will not make the game at Selhurst Park.

The Hammers have no injury problems and David Moyes thus finds himself in the perfect last day position of being able to play his No 1 team.

The only question appears to be  seemingly whether Said Benrahma or Manu Lanzinifind themselves in the starting line up.
