West Ham striker Antonio says diet key to form

West Ham striker Michail Antonio says a change of diet has sparked his goalscoring form.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Antonio revealed that alterations to his diet have started to help overcome at least some of his injuries.

“I've come to realise I'm no longer the young pup that I used to be," he said.

“I kept believing that I was. There were certain things in life I was doing that I could have been better with.

“I used to eat what I wanted, I wasn't the best eater. Now I've changed my diet and routine of life. And I've noticed since I changed my diet I've had less niggles and I've not felt my hamstrings at all."
