Diafra Sakho

Hammers fans are right to worry about their front line and the fitness issues that seem to plague them – and Sakho is no stranger to the treatment table.

His back problem is not going away and if he is to survive from now until the end of May without a spell on the sidelines, managing his time on the field is going to be key.

Rotation and playing him at the right times and in the right games will have to be at the forefront of Big Sam’s mind if the club want to finish the season strongly.
