After Edson Alvarez appeared heartbroken upon leaving the field injured against Manchester City, a reporter offered a significant update on the new West Ham hero.
In the 3-1 loss to Man City at the London Stadium, West Ham experienced their first significant injury scare of the season.
Following his £34 million transfer from Ajax, Edson Alvarez has been an immediate favorite among Hammers supporters.
So far, the Mexican destroyer has truly lived up to his nickname El Machin (The Machine).
Along with Tomas Soucek and James Ward-Prowse, he was outstanding in protecting the back four when Man City visited the city.
West Ham supporters were understandably concerned when Alvarez suffered an injury at about the 65-minute mark.
The tall midfielder lay still for two minutes before being unable to get up. As he departed the field, he had a distressing appearance.
His impact on this West Ham team is already so tremendous that Man City nearly immediately capitalized, scoring twice in the 76th and 86th minutes to secure the victory.
The schedule is ready to pick up speed as West Ham’s most recent European campaign begins before Premier League games either side of a trip to Lincoln for the third round of the Carabao Cup.
West Ham will therefore need their finest players to be there for their crucial games. Alvarez is unquestionably one of those individuals.
After Alvarez appeared heartbroken after leaving the field injured against Manchester City, a reporter has now provided a significant update on the new West Ham hero.
And the news is excellent!
Roshane Thomas, a West Ham reporter for The Athletic, claims that he spoke to the Mexican after the game and that he just had a slight case of cramp after traveling 10,000 miles round trip to represent his nation in the US.
Edson Alvarez indicated he was alright when Thomas spoke to him in the mixed zone, according to Thomas.
He most likely left the game because of exhaustion after arriving late from the international break.
With their matchup against Manchester City, West Ham demonstrated their ability to compete with the world’s top teams.
However, maintaining players like Alvarez healthy for the remainder of the season is essential to the team’s goals.
After that brief fear, this is great news.

Tomas Soucek asserts that West Ham supporters are unaware of the 26-year-old player’s true potential this year.
Before tomorrow’s return of West Ham United to the Europa League, teammate Lucas Paqueta has received nothing but praise from Tomas Soucek.
At West Ham’s press conference prior to their match against Serbian team Backa Topola, Soucek made a statement.
When questioned about Paqueta, the Czech Republic international wasn’t hesitant to compliment him.
“Lucas is a great player,” remarked Soucek. He can demonstrate his abilities, but what makes him genuinely unique is that no one is aware of his full potential.
“He has a very unique gift, and he can display it. He has the skills we need to accomplish our goals.
Lofty praise, yes, but praise that Paqueta deserves in light of his thus far this season’s performances.
Although he got better as the season went on the previous year, Paqueta seems to have moved up a level now.
He is one of a select group of West Ham players who have stepped up their play after Declan Rice left the team.
Paqueta can truly make a difference for West Ham, as Soucek says.
Soucek argues that Paqueta can yet shock West Ham supporters.
David Moyes has singled out Mohammed Kudus as a player who can elevate West Ham in addition to Lucas Paqueta.
And Kudus may have a great opportunity to start for West Ham in tomorrow night’s game.
The 23-year-old’s supporters will be hoping that he can take a lot of confidence from a strong performance and apply it to their weekend trip to Liverpool.
The schedule does get challenging for West Ham now, as it does for many other teams, but Moyes will be quiet confident that his team is well-prepared.
And he could share Soucek’s opinion that Paqueta’s ability hasn’t yet been fully appreciated by West Ham fans.
Whatever the case, East London has a lot to be happy about right now.
