Aaron Cresswell goes off injured during West Ham vs Cambridge friendly clash, as David Moyes’s injury problems continue to mount up.

The Hammers have already lost one key player to injury today, after Nayef Aguerd went off with a problem during Morocco’s World Cup lat-16 win over Spain.

And now it seems as though Moyes has yet another issue to deal with.

It was our first warm-up game ahead of the Premier League restart on Boxing Day.

The Hammers were nowhere near their best in all fairness and actually went behind in the game, only for Jarrod Bowen to equalise and Cambridge to score an own goal before half-time.

That all came after West Ham lost one of our key players through injury though…

The 32-year-old left-back limped off the pitch after just 16 minutes and was replaced by summer signing Emerson.

Let’s hope that it was a precautionary measure by David Moyes.

With Aguerd suffering an injury today and Kurt Zouma having recently undergone surgery on his knee, the Hammers really can’t afford to lose another key defender for a prolonged period of time.

There is only just under three weeks remaining before West Ham travel to the Emirates to take on Arsenal on December 26th.

When that match comes around, let’s hope that Moyes has a full compliment of players to choose from.

And it goes without saying that that is far from ideal for the Hammers.
