Bluebirds face reshuffle after Bamba blow
Posted Friday, March 08, 2019 by PA
Cardiff must reorganise their defence for the visit of West Ham after Sol Bamba’s season-ending injury.
Bamba damaged knee ligaments in the 2-0 defeat at Wolves last weekend and Bruno Ecuele Manga is likely to be restored in his favoured centre-back position, with Lee Peltier remaining at right-back.
Harry Arter hopes to reclaim a midfield spot and Josh Murphy could return to the matchday squad after being dropped at Molineux.
Aaron Cresswell and Fabian Balbuena have been passed fit for the trip to south Wales.
Cresswell limped off against Newcastle last week but has resumed training, while fellow defender Balbuena is available for the first time since December after a knee injury.
Jack Wilshere, Andriy Yarmolenko, Winston Reid and Carlos Sanchez are long-term absentees.
