The 30-year-old Hammers forward was taken off by Moyes with around 20 minutes still to play against Fulham tonight.

Antonio had pulled up just before being taken off and many West Ham fans were fearing the worst.

The former Nottingham Forest ace is the only recognised senior striker at the club.

David Moyes refused to bring a new striker to the London Stadium in January. And that may well end upon costing us dearly.

Michail Antonio injury update

It seems as though Micky may be ok according to Moysie.

“I don’t think it’s anything serious for Michail Antonio. I think he just felt as if he was beginning to fatigue.”

West Ham earned a point in the end away at Fulham tonight.

Our lack of strength in depth was laid bare, however.

The fact that the Hammers didn’t sign another striker in the January is beyond farcical.

Losing Tomas Soucek to a quite frankly ridiculous red card and the ensuing suspension is another huge worry as we don’t have any adequate cover in the middle of the park for the Czech ace.

Let’s hope that gets overturned.

Role on 2023 when David Sullivan and David Gold will hopefully sell up. They are not fit to run this great football club. And the current state of our squad proves that. #GSBOUT
