Moses’ injury a big blow to the team – Coach


The coach of West Ham United of England, Slaven Bilic has explained that the recent injury to his winger, Victor Moses, is a big set-back for his team.

Victor Moses of West Ham United pulls up injured during the Barclays Premier League match between Manchester United and West Ham United at Old Trafford on December 05, 2015 in Manchester, England.

The Nigerian international was forced out of their 0 – 0 draw to Manchester United in the 37th minute, a situation Bilic disclosed that will leave a big vacuum in the team’s attack if he stayed long by the sidelines.

“It’s still too early (to tell with Moses), but it doesn’t look good again. It’s a hamstring – he felt it and we had to take him off.”

“It’s a big blow for us, but we have to stay positive. Some of the players may have a chance. We hope he is back for the Stoke game. If not Stoke, then Swansea,”said Bilic.

Moses will undergo a scan on Tuesday December 8, to discover the extent of his hamstring problem.
