On bench in return
Fullkrug (thigh) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Bournemouth.
ANALYSIS
Fullkrug returned to training during the break, and was named on the bench for Saturday's clash against the Cherries, suggesting the staff is comfortable with his progress but not enough to give him a starting role. He has missed the Hammers' last four games due to a thigh injury and has yet to score a goal this season.
