West Ham now dealt another blow as Moyes may also be without 'unsung hero' vs Liverpool

West Ham United boss David Moyes may be without another player for their crunch clash with Liverpool today amid some concerns already surrounding midfielder Tomas Soucek.

The Hammers will certainly be without a few first teamers for their trip to Anfield this afternoon with Vladimir Coufal, Angelo Ogbonna and Arthur Masuaku apparently still unavailable (The Evening Standard).

There are also doubts about whether midfielder Soucek can play today despite the player declaring himself ready on Twitter, with Moyes stating to the press afterwards that his stitches are still a ‘concern’.

As per reports, it appears the Irons may be without another player in Aaron Cresswell who was absent through injury during their 3-1 defeat away to Southampton in the FA Cup.

As per reports from The Evening Standard (at the time of writing) and Claret & Hugh, West Ham ‘may also be without a recognised left-back’ against Liverpool today as Cresswell faces a late fitness push.

The latter insider states that there is uncertainty surrounding whether West Ham’s defender will be fit to face Jurgen Klopp’s side.

The Englishman, a real threat from out wide, comes as an asset for Moyes in the forward areas and may be sorely missed if he can’t make it back for Liverpool today.

Cresswell has made the joint-second most key passes in the final third for West Ham so far this season all while averaging more crosses per 90 than any Irons player in the Premier League (WhoScored).

Taking these numbers into account, it’s little wonder Paul Robinson believes the 32-year-old is Moyes’ ‘unsung hero’ and an ‘amazing player’ (Football Insider).

Irons supporters will certainly be hoping he is deemed fit enough to feature.
