Ahead of this weekend's clash with Manchester City, West Ham United goalkeeper Robert Green admits they miss Craig Bellamy.

Green said: "It's going to be tough. He's a tough opponent and I've played with him over the years and he's quick and dangerous in one-on-one situations.

"He's a quality player and a player, who we'll miss."

The Hammers have lost three straight League and cup games, including Saturday's capitulation to Liverpool.

And Green added: "We're going to be big underdogs and they showed on Sunday what they're capable of and we're going to have buck our ideas up before then to really nail down what we're about."
