West Ham boss Slaven Bilic still has confidence in injury-jinxed Andy Carroll, who will miss Sunday's final home game of the season against Liverpool.

"Andy Carroll won't be able to play against Liverpool.

"He's still feeling his groin. It's nothing major but he will miss the game."

He added: "It is not a subject for now, but Andy is kind of a player that has such a big impact on our game that we won't give up on him.

"Especially now, as this has nothing to do with lifestyle or not being committed enough.

"He works really hard, it was bad luck and, as I said, I will never give up on him.

"On the other hand, it is no good having a player whose name you put down first, second or third and can't rely on him."
