A mistake to play Antonio against Villa

So Antonio is out of today's match after picking up another hamstring injury against Aston Villa. David Moyes says it's a different part of his hamstring to the old injury, but even so it now looks like big mistake to have rushed Antonio back. Particularly as Haller had scored in the previous match at Sheffield United and was looking more confident. Any fan who has watched West Ham for the last few years knows that Antonio needs to be eased back into action gently — but it seems our medical team don't.

So it's back to Seb up front tonight. He'll probably be looking even angrier now and if he scores might even do a Ketsbaia (the Newcastle player was infamous for his legendary kicking of hoardings after scoring, younger fans check it out on YouTube). Still, at least we'll have 2000 fans inside the London Stadium. Will someone plant a corner flag in the centre circle just for old time's sake? It will be good to have even that number singing along to Bubbles come kick-off time.
