[SPORTS] Manchester United injury worries

Martial, Pogba & Shaw to miss West Ham clash but Solskjaer 'hopeful' over James

The Norwegian boss has revealed that the trio will be absent for the Red Devils once again for a trip to the London Stadium

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed that Anthony Martial, Paul Pogba and Luke Shaw will all miss Manchester United's trip to West Ham on Sunday, but he is hopeful Daniel James can still feature.

Pogba has been unavailable since sustaining an ankle injury in a 1-1 draw at Southampton on August 31, while Martial and Shaw have both been recovering from knocks suffered against Crystal Palace.

James, meanwhile, suffered an injury during last Saturday's 1-0 win over Leicester City, which forced him to miss the Europa League victory against Astana on Thursday.

When asked if Pogba and Martial would be fit enough to face West Ham on Sunday, Solskjaer told reporters: "Not really, no. They've not been training yet so I don't think so. [Luke] won't be ready.

"Daniel James? I don't know. He's not trained in the last few days. Hopefully, but not sure. We'll have a recovery day with everyone tomorrow and we'll see on Saturday."

After their clash with the Hammers, United will turn their attention to a Carabao Cup third-round tie at home to Rochdale, before hosting Arsenal in the Premier League five days later.
