Paintsil Update

West Ham manager Alan Pardew says Ghana fullback John Paintsil is nearing a return from injury,

"He is now running around the track and I think he will probably be back in full training in around 10 days which is great news for us."

Pardew also confirmed the news that new left back George McCartney is on the mend,

"He is two or three weeks away from full training, but he looks pretty good and he has settled in really well."
