West ham supporters have become extremely tired, frustrated and angry with their stand-in goalkeeper Roberto. The Spanish goalkeeper has proven to be a complete liability in his appearances this season, and now the fans have been given some good news.
Joseph Anang and David Martin have both been heavily involved in training this week ahead of the game against Chelsea.

The Hammers have been told by ExWHUemployee, via West Ham news on Twitter, that both David Martin and Joseph Anang, two goalkeepers that the fans would love to see ahead of Roberto, have been heavily involved in training this week, and that could suggest one of them will start this weekend.
Whoever starts will have a serious baptism of fire if it is one of Anang or Martin. Neither of the pair have made their senior debuts for the club yet, and with Manuel Pellegrini’s side facing a tough away trip to Stamford Bridge, it’s certainly a brave move, however, anyone is better than Roberto at this stage.
Is Roberto the worst goalkeeper you've ever seen?
Yes
No

Pellegrini sticking with Roberto for the Tottenham defeat was yet another mistake and came from a place of pure stubbornness; nothing else. Martin or Anang are much better options and options that Pellegrini needs to implement. Roberto is by far the worst GK we have had in PL.

I have much believe in Anang as our long lasting solution for the defeats we are experiencing in @LukaszFabianski absence

The Hammers will be desperate for Roberto not to start in goal on the weekend, although only time will tell whether or not Pellegrini makes a goalkeeping change.
