West Ham star Michail Antonio admits he was right to be axed by David Moyes

Michail Antonio admits he was right to be axed by David Moyes and is fully committed to West Ham.

The 27-year-old, the Hammers' reigning Player of the Year, was left out of the squad to face Crystal Palace on Tuesday night after being late for a team meeting.

Antonio, who only recently returned to action after a six-week injury lay-off, told The Sun: “I am not making excuses, I was late. I agree with what the manager did.

I was late for a meeting, he dropped me from the squad. I understand that to the fullest.
