West Ham are sweating over another hamstring injury for Michail Antonio.â¨
The Hammers striker was forced off in the second half of Monday’s 3-2 win at Wolves. â¨
Antonio's career at West Ham has been plagued by hamstring problems and, with Declan Rice already ruled out for at least a month because a knee injury, having him sidelined again would be a severe blow for David Moyes.â¨
"Michail Antonio played as well as he has for a long while for 30 minutes," Moyes told Sky Sports after the game at Molineux.
"We're not sure on the injury. We will assess it tomorrow. He says he doesn't feel too bad at the moment. It looks like he's felt his hamstring."â¨
West Ham raced into a three-goal lead at Wolves but had to hold on after Wolves pegged them back with two goals.
Having collapsed from the same position against Arsenal before the international break, this time the Hammers held on to move fourth above Chelsea.
â¨"It felt like deja vu," said Moyes. "We didn't manage it too well. We were going to try and make it four instead of settling for 3-0 at half-time. Some of our play in the first half was scintillating. Jesse (Lingard) was fantastic.â¨
"We have to go and take it on. Why not? I am hearing pundits talking about West Ham having a chance of Champions League. Nobody would have envisaged or mentioned that last season. Can we keep it going? We are going to try and compete with the big teams right until the end."
