Bellamy Ruled Out of Liverpool Game

According to Mervyn Day, Craig Bellamy and Nobby Solano are unlikely to feature in West Ham's game against Liverpool.

"They are training well but Nobby's not had a reserve game or any sort of competitive football since he did his hamstring against Man United and Craig has been out even longer and has only literally played 87 minutes in a reserve match," Day says on the official site.

"Realistically it is going to be a big ask for them to be involved - but who knows what the situation might be in a few days' time."

Of course there could be an element of kidology about this statement. With West Ham's lack of options up front I wouldn't be surprised to see Bellamy at least make the bench.
