Ferdinand could miss Hammers' opener

West Ham defender Anton Ferdinand is a doubt for tomorrow’s Barclays Premier league opener against Wigan.

Ferdinand is struggling with a hamstring injury sustained during the pre-season friendly against Ipswich.

Craig Bellamy (hamstring), Kieron Dyer (broken leg), Jonathan Spector (hip), George McCartney (virus), Danny Gabbidon (stomach), James Tompkins (leg) and James Collins (knee) are out.

Provisional squad: Green, Stech, Neill, Ferdinand, Davenport, Etherington, Reid, Faubert, Parker, Noble, Behrami, Boa Morte, Ashton, Mullins, Cole, Sears, Collison, Hines.
