David Moyes’ refusal to use Gianluca Scamacca is puzzling West Ham supporters, but the manager says the £35.5million striker’s ‘physical data’ is falling short of his standards.
Scamacca has been an unused substitute in West Ham’s last four Premier League games. He was seen kitted up on the sideline during Saturday's 1-1 draw with Aston Villa at the London Stadium but when Danny Ings was removed in the 86th minute, Moyes brought on Maxwel Cornet instead.
When asked why he is snubbing Scamacca, Moyes said his best team does not include the 24-year-old Italian right now.
