Zouma injury update
West Ham are unlikely to know the extent of central defender Kurt Zouma’s injury problem until later today or tomorrow ( Tuesday).
The big fella was scanned with Ben Johnson yesterday but an inconclusive result means he will be having another later today.
Although there has been widespread speculation on social media that he could be out for some time, it is far too early to make dramatic and panicky judgements.
He felt a problem in his knee before being subbed in the match in the 3-2 victory on Saturday whilst Johnson is understood to be suffering a hamstring injury.
Obviously there are fears inside the club given the injury to Angelo Ogbonna but insiders continue to hope for the best.
Johnson is expected to be out of action for two or three weeks as the club suffers it’s first crop of injuries this season ahead of the games against Dinamo Zagreb on Thursday and Burnley on Sunday.
