Manuel Pellegrini has revealed that the Hammers will still be without Lukasz Fabianski and Manuel Lanzini for the clash with Arsenal this weekend.
The Hammers go into the game in poor form, after losing to Wolves in midweek, whilst Arsenal also suffered defeat to Brighton on Thursday.
Pellegrini spoke about the status of several his players ahead of the clash, with Michail Antonio’s fitness to be assessed ahead of the game.
The West Ham boss said, via the club’s official site:
We continue with Lukasz Fabianski his recovery, and also Manuel Lanzini and Michail Antonio – the three of them we must continue watching.
Lukasz and Manu will not be ready until the end of the month, maybe. We will see tomorrow if Antonio tomorrow is fit for this [Monday’s] game.
Jack Wilshere is also close to returning to the fold, according to Pellegrini, along with Winston Reid.

The Gunners are very much looking to pick up three points this weekend, with Freddie Ljungberg hoping to pick up three points for the first time as Arsenal boss.
With the Hammers struggling, despite beating Chelsea recently, this looks to be the best opportunity for Freddie to get a win as Arsenal boss.
