‘Worried’ - David Moyes issues injury update on key West Ham star ahead of Manchester United clash

West Ham manager David Moyes says Lukasz Fabianksi “seems OK” although admits he is “worried” about the goalkeeper's eye socket after a nasty collision in Saturday’s 4-0 win over Nottingham Forest, ahead of Wednesday’s FA Cup fifth round clash with Manchester United.

The 37-year-old goalkeeper was left with a swollen eye after a coming-together with the knee of Filipe in the 69th-minute. He had to be replaced by Alphonse Areola and is a doubt for the trip to Old Trafford.

“He seemed to come through it quite well and did a lot of good things and things we really like.” Vladimir Coufal was forced off at half-time with a foot problem but ex-United boss Moyes explained his exit from the game.

Meanwhile, United wait on the recovery of Anthony Martial, who has missed the last eight games with a hip injury including Sunday’s Carabao Cup final win. Donny van de Beek and Christian Eriksen are long-term absentees although the
