Watched from the bench as the Hammers drew 3-3 against Bournemouth. 3 gosls in the last 10 minutes, including an injury time equaliser for the Cherries. West Ham’s entire back 3 got yellow cards and shipped 3 goals, so i’m guessing Reid will be back in the team next week
Winston Reid (Unattached FC)
Not in match day squad. Is he out of favour?

Unused on bench v Brighton as Hammers lose 3-1.
Not in the squad as West Ham win 2-0 against Watford, apparently with a throat infection.
No Wood either as Burnley lose 1-0 to Swansea conceding a late goal
FM fans will be disturbed to see his pending CA rating
Also on the bench as Hammers visit Anfield.
collins, ogbonna and cresswell all preferred in the back three by moyes today
west ham have been terrible lately with david moyes doing a bit of a moyes and getting everything wrong

After that effort they might not be the preferred players next game!
Back in starting lineup away to Swansea
Doesn't sound like good news. Taken to hospital after a 17th minute injury. Concerns of something to do with his leg and concussion.
Looks very nasty. Probably a no-show for the behind-closed-doors training run with Canada. Unless he's well enough to attend just to meet the new coach.
Knee looks bad
1min into the video, will be out for a while. https://streamable.com/s7nsy
Feel for him. Say what you will but it's always sad to see such a talented player being plagued by injuries over and over again.
Any update on the injury?
Out for the season.
Guy will so anything to get out of an All Whites game.
No injury update on Reid, but interesting snippet from this week's Flying Kiwis.
Check it out, Four Four Two are doing one of those irrelevant and frivolous list things and they’ve got Winston Reid ranked as the 95th Best Bargain in Premier League History!
He stayed following relegation, has repeatedly battled back after injury and stood tall as a monument to permanence while almost everything around him changed. pic.twitter.com/LtoV01gqnL

FourFourTwo: “West Ham supporters have a penchant for flair players; those who have lifted the club above mediocrity and allowed them to dream – think Joe Cole, Paolo Di Canio and Dimitri Payet. But in Reid they found an alternative cult hero, one whose impact came through his commitment and loyalty. He stayed following relegation, has repeatedly battled back after injury and stood tall as a monument to permanence while almost everything around him changed.”
They haven’t finished the list but if Winston Reid’s there then Ryan Nelsen, who was a free transfer from DC United to Blackburn Rovers, must surely be there too, right?
Yup, sure enough…
A rare case of a trialist earning a Premier League contract, the New Zealander was captain within two years of his arrival. He played 208 times for Rovers, helping them to four top-10 finishes. pic.twitter.com/H19oLBfF7Z

FourFourTwo: “There was a time when Mark Hughes was synonymous with bargain hunting, not moaning about referees. At Blackburn, he got a redoubtable centre-back partnership for a combined £400,000. Christopher Samba was the giant but Nelsen was the leader. A rare case of a trialist earning a Premier League contract, the New Zealander was captain within two years of his arrival.

I was told he was 6 weeks into rehab when his knee flared up again and turned out they'd fudged something in to op so had to go under the knife again and it put him back to square 1
Flying Kiwis again.
Speaking of injury news, here’s some more sparse Winston chat…
He has his own personal rehabilitation programme with specialist equipment at the training ground. As the injury is quite complicated there is no set recovery date
@RobWaldon
No set recovery date? Wow they sounds bad.
I'm guessing its either his body isn't in a good physical state (too much weight), leg hasn't recovered as well as it should or a combination of both. Would also have a decent toll mentally aswell with the pressure to get back and the long setback.
At his age it takes alot more to get back to peak physical condition and the injury to the leg hasn't helped.
More Flying Kiwis. Unfortunately pretty shark news for Reid.
The Times suggest that Jack Wilshere (ankle) could return to training later this month.
However, it looks like Winston Reid (knee) will not feature in 2018/19. The centre-back suffered a knee ligament injury 11 months ago and had surgery in the summer following a setback. #WHUFC
Claret and Hugh: “Forgotten West Ham man Winston Reid injury could resume light training in around three weeks but Manuel Pellegrini doesn’t expect the Kiwi centre back to play this season he told reporters at Rush Green late last week. Winston Reid after went surgery in July last year and is yet to kick a ball in anger this season. The long serving defender suffered a knee injury against Swansea City last season.”
Also rumours that the Hammers are looking to pick up Gary Cahill on a free from Chelsea.
Still think that if and when he's back to full fitness he's the best of the defenders at West Ham. Just one of those unfortunate injury setbacks that can happen. 12-18 months out though definitely gives the competition time to shine so will be a challenge to crack the first team again. Still he's only 30, so will have a few good years in him when he gets back to 100%.
Just gotta say it, never going to happen, but...
How good would it be to see to the guy in Wellington?!
Anyone know if Winston is doing preseason training with Hammers?

I could see Winnie returning to NZ when he hits 32,33 ; not sure if he'll be able to walk by then though..

Cool, thanks for that.
Good read on the Hammers and their Kiwi in this week's Flying Kiwis.

Not in the match day squad, as Hammers get towelled 5-0 by Man City at London Stadium.
He will be after that performance.
No Reid at Brighton either
Got himself injured again ffs. Out for tonight's game against Watford
