Lanzini has to take it kneesy

-

MANUEL LANZINI could be out for another month with the knee injury which is wrecking his season.

The Argentine playmaker has played only 45 minutes for West Ham this term – and will definitely miss tonight’s Carabao Cup tie with Bolton and Saturday’s visit by Tottenham.

Lanzini (above) scored the winner against Spurs in May, but suffered the injury in pre-season – then broke down again in the last internatio­nal break.

Hammers boss Slaven Bilic said: “He is still a little bit away from starting training. He’s doing everything, but he is not training with us as he still feels it in one movement.

“We don’t want to risk it. Will he be ready for the Swansea game? Maybe.”
