Did Speed join West Ham while I was sleeping?

Speed should be ready after benefiting from 10 days' rest, but he admitted: "I don't know about this Saturday.

"I'm making good enough progress but we have an embarrassment of riches in midfield now."

"I'm very happy to be a West Ham player and, whatever the rumours, the truth is that if I had wanted to go, I could have gone," he said.

"But I didn't want to go, I didn't push, because I love to play here and would like to finish my career here.

"I am very happy to play with my armband and my claret and blue shirt against Manchester United and do my best for my supporters and my team."
