Fingers are crossed Zouma's injury is not acute!

There are growing fears that Hammers current record signing at the club, Kurt Zouma may have sustained an injury that might be worse than first thought during yesterday's FA Cup 4th round tie. After the game against Kidderminster David Moyes said “I think he’s okay. I was a bit worried. Obviously, the plan was not to play him as long but we made changes to try and get ourselves in the cup and stay in the cup so unfortunately, I was not able to bring him off earlier.”

As Hammers players left the pitch of the incredibly compact but aptly named 'Agg'borough Stadium, they made a point of congratulating their stoic opponents Kidderminster Harriers, who had become the Nation's favourites, as the plucky underdogs. They nearly pulled off the biggest FA Cup shock in living memory, but failed at the last hurdle, well last two hurdles actually.

Spot the Pun, Yarmo Be't here!

Without knowing all the details it would be unfair to 'jump on' Andriy Yarmolenko's case until all the facts are known, but what is clear is that the FA rarely bring charges unless they have substantiated evidence. Yarmolenko has been charged with alleged misconduct in relation to a betting commercial. The charge concerns a 'potential' breach of FA Rule E8.5, which says that players are 'not permitted to advertise or promote any betting activity that they are prohibited from engaging in'.

Declan Rice WILL stay at West Ham IF they do the right thing!

It might disappoint the doom merchants to know that Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City transfer target Declan Rice has made it known that as far as he is concerned ANY talk regarding him leaving the club OR him signing a new contract is to be put on the back burner until at least next summer, as the brilliant and highly sought after England midfielder wants to 'concentrate' on helping Hammers finish as high as they can in the Premier League as well as going as far as possible in the Europa League Cup as well as the FA Cup.
