OK big man, a message from west ham fans, you were furious with 'bug eye', 'the corpse' or whatever you want to call your manager David Moyes, when he replaced Michail Antonio with Yarmolenko instead of you against Manchester City. Another in a long line of snubs, or just how the cookie crumbles? Having banged in goals for fun in the Elk Cup hopes were high that there would be a chance of 'significant' minutes on the pitch in the Barclays Premier League, unfortunately due to an injury picked up in training it was not to be.

Contrary to the hopeful images we saw of Michail Antonio at Rush Green, the Hammers striker has been side lined for what could be up to six weeks with an injury to his troublesome hamstring, it is a situation that was always going to potentially occur, but the timing was not anticipated.

In what will be seen as a very positive sign, West Ham United striker Michail Antonio has been pictured taking part in a supervised light session at the club's Rush Green training ground.
