West Ham's Spector suffers concussion, looks set to miss two

West Ham's Jonathan Spector will miss the next two matches after suffering concussion in the clash with Sunderland on the weekend.

The US international was involved in a challenge in the air and left unconscious and had to be stretchered off the pitch.

"He lost a little a bit of consciousness and he lost his short-term memory. He is fine and they are confident it is not going to be a big problem. He couldn't remember much of it but he was fine," said Hammers manager Gianfranco Zola.
