WEST HAM HAVE been dealt a blow with the news that goalkeeper Adrian is expected to miss the final three games of the season after a calf injury sustained in last weekend’s 3-0 win over West Brom.
However, manager Slaven Bilic has backed Ireland number one Darren Randolph to perform in his absence.
“We’ve got one player injured and that’s Adrian,” he said. “It’s minor but unfortunately because it’s his calf he is probably out for the rest of the season.
We’ve got a great deputy in Randolph. He’s one of the biggest reasons we went far in the FA Cup and we are happy to have him.”
Randolph is set to play what could be three crucial games, as West Ham — who sit five points behind fourth-placed Man City with a game in hand — bid for Champions League football.
And while Adrian is likely remain as West Ham’s Premier League number one, Randolph could play in the Champions League next season if the Hammers get there, with Bilic fond of rotating his goalkeepers.

Fair play to the defenders, unbelievable work rate from all 30 of them.
I have stood up for Ulster football on here for some time but this is pure muck. honestly I think this is the worst game of football I have ever seen.McManus is the only good player on the pitch today. If McManus could be marked Monahan have nothing else to offer.
“He was eaten the way a crocodile would eat a human being, by that Monaghan player”. Wtf are that lot in RTE smoking?
I rewinded that to make sure I heard him right
Come on MONAGHAN
Donegal are so negative. Conor McManus is taking a lot if abuse out there. Monaghan starting to play some lovely football when allowed though.
A cure for insomnia…..
christ this is horrendous shite
agree paul. horrific. imagine having paid to bring a family to that. dont care who beat the winner as long as someone does.
the sad part is Declan fellas on here will think this is great stuff these mob are killing the game.
Sure why don’t they play 6 at the back and get obliterated by 30 points at the hands of the Dubs in Croke Park, that’s far more entertaining…
Donegal are only good when they’re ahead and then they choke the life out of ya. Clueless when chasing a game.
Spoke too soon Damian!
*Damien sorry
I was thinking that Jack. maybe not
now croke Park this is the chance slam the back door shut cut out the cancer.
I know it’s a final and these teams are under no obligation to entertain us, but jesus, this is horrible stuff.
God protect us from Martin Carney and Marty Morrissey!
Can’t see Derry beating Monaghan
Neither can I, especially if Donegal are playing Monaghan!!
Damn predictive text
Seeing as Derry aren’t playing today, ‘twould be hard to see it happening alright.
Didn’t see your correction before my last comment. Sorry.
Yeah cause both words are so similar
Alan b.. You lie.. There is no way Donegal got amended to Derry by predictive text.
Thank Christ that wasn’t a draw, I don’t think I could take it.. An absolute sh@tefest of a game.
That’s the only way to play Donegal, so fair play to Monaghan… Unfortunately it’s horrible to watch….
