12 August 2016 07:58

West Ham boss Slaven Bilic has a number of decisions to make in regards to his team for Monday night's Premier League opener at Chelsea.

He has already confirmed Dimitri Payet will not be fit to play the whole game after returning back to pre-season following his Euro 2016 exploits with France, while new signings Andre Ayew and Arthur Masuaku also need to prove their fitness if they are to make their debuts.

Aaron Cresswell and Manuel Lanzini (both knee) are definitely out but former Chelsea youngster Gokhan Tore (knee) is back in training.

Provisional Squad: Adrian, Randolph, Byram, Masuaku, Collins, Reid, Ogbonna, Oxford, Antonio, Nordtveit, Kouyate, Obiang, Noble, Payet, Feghouli, Tore, Valencia, Carroll, Fletcher, Ayew.
