It is about time Hammers fans received some GOOD NEWS regarding centre backs, first the Og 'did' his ACL, then Zouma got injured but recovered and then got injured again. Then Issa Diop, who was just starting to show the sort of form that earned him his 'monster' moniker courtesy of Jose Mourinho, managed to pick up a season ending ankle injury and finally Les 'Balon' Dawson got a straight red from 'Lord Olivier' in the rigged match against Chelsea which was paid for by Marcos Alonso, how else could he have stayed on the pitch?

Chelsea: Mendy, Azpilicueta (c), Silva, Christensen, Loftus-Cheek, Kante, Jorginho, Alonso, Mount, Werner, Havertz. Subs: Arrizabalaga (GK), Lukaku, Pulisic, Chalobah, Saul Niguez, Barkley, Ziyech, Kenedy, Sarr.
West Ham: Fabianski, Coufal, Dawson, Cresswell, Johnson, Soucek, Noble (c), Masuaku, Fornals, Benrahma, Yarmolenko. Subs: Areola (GK), Antonio, Lanzini, Vlasic, Bowen, Fredericks, Kral, Rice, Alese.

News coming out of Hammers 'Goose Green' training ground yesterday is that veteran Angelo Ogbonna is being 'fast tracked' back from his ACL injury in order to provide emergency cover for the Premier League game against Chelsea AND more importantly, the UEFA Europa League semi final 1st leg against Eintrecht Frankfurt at the Queen Elizabeth Stadium.
